Lost in the Moment and Found (Wayward Children, #8) by Seanan McGuire

Lost in the Moment and Found (Wayward Children, #8) by Seanan McGuire-146 pages



This is the latest book in the series, but there may be more books in the future. This is the story of Antoinette (Antsy) who was introduced in the previous book as Cora's roommate at Eleanor West's School for Wayward Children. Antsy lost her father in a Target at a very young age. He died of a massive heart attack. She was with him on daddy and daughter shopping time. Her mother remarried a man named Tyler who Antsy had a bad feeling about. He was kind of creepy around her and made Antsy look bad to her mother. One night he came into Antsy's room and made her very uncomfortable and made a veiled threat. He never actually assaulted her, but he may have if given time. Antsy decides to run away that night. She finds a door that reads "Be Sure" above it. She steps through the door and into a shop where lost things go. She stays at the shop for 2 years and goes through many Doors to other worlds with an old woman, Vineta. However, there's something Vineta and Hudson (a talking magpie) don't tell Antsy. There's a cost for going through the doors and for the safety of the shop. What is this cost and why does Antsy end up at Eleanor West's School? I liked this one a lot. It's a bit sad, but it's really good, much like the rest of the series. I rate this one 5 out of 5 stars.
