The Faraway Inn -- Sarah Beth Durst, Paperback

After a devastating heartbreak, a teen girl decides to spend her summer helping her eccentric great aunt manage her quaint Vermont inn--but the fixer-upper is hiding a magical secret--in this cozy and irresistable new YA fantasy from the New York Times bestselling author of The Spellshop.

This stunning first edition of The Faraway Inn will feature special designed edges!

When sixteen-year-old Calisa arrives at her great-aunt's B&B in rural Vermont for the summer, she's shocked to find a rundown inn rather than the cozy bed-and-breakfast she was expecting. Grumpy and eccentric, Auntie Zee is determined to keep anyone from messing with her beloved inn . . . even though she clearly needs the help.

To convince her great-aunt to keep her around, Calisa sets to work fixing up the inn, enlisting extra help from the groundskeeper's (handsome) son. But the longer she stays, the surer she is that there's something strange about the B&B--and its guests. Something almost . . . otherworldly.

The inn is hiding a magical secret--but secrets are like doors. Once Calisa opens this one, she won't be able to go back . . .
