Water Lily by Crystal Packard. Five stars
Very enjoyable read. A fantasy adventure and romance. Lily likes to escape from her demanding mother and memories of her best friend’s death by visiting her grandmother, called Mémé. But when she arrives her great-aunts tell her that her grandmother has gone off somewhere. Unhappy, Lily finds a mural on Mémé’s wall. When the moon shines on it, the mural radiates and when she touches the water in it, her hand comes away wet. Lily passes through the painting and arrives in an old-fashioned world. Believing her grandmother is somewhere in that world, she meets people who help her and others who don’t. Her adventures teach her who she loves and what abilities she has.
I love portal stories. Thank you for another 5-star recommendation.
