Can't-Wait Wednesday: Spellbook of the Lost and Found - Moïra Fowley-Doyle

Can’t-Wait Wednesday is a weekly event hosted by Tessa at Wishful Endings that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.



This week I can't wait for Spellbook of the Lost and Found.

Spellbook of the Lost and Found
Moira Fowley-Doyle
Series: N/A
Release Date: June 1, 2017
Publisher: Kathy Dawson Books
Waited on by: Sam

One stormy summer night, Olive and her best friend, Rose, begin to lose things. It starts with simple items like hair clips and jewellery, but soon it’s clear that Rose has lost something bigger; something she won’t talk about.

Then Olive meets three wild, mysterious strangers: Ivy, Hazel and Rowan. Like Rose, they’re mourning losses - and holding tight to secrets.

When they discover the ancient spellbook, full of hand-inked charms to conjure back lost things, they realise it might be their chance to set everything right. Unless it’s leading them towards secrets that were never meant to be found . . .






Fowley-Doyle's first book, The Accident Season, sits on my favorites shelf. It had so many fantastic elements: twists and turns, beautiful and atmospheric writing, broken and complex characters. I didn't just read this book, I imbibed it. When I saw that Fowley-Doyle had a new book coming out, I did a little bit of this


And this


And this too


I was definitely excited. From the blurb, I am expecting another suspenseful tale, filled with lots of creepy moments, and I just CANNOT WAIT to read it.

    1. Kiersten, one of the other WLABBers, loved her debut, and then I read it, and I loved it too. So, I am hoping lightening strikes twice.

  7. You've got me with a one-two punch Sam: I'm convinced I need to read The Accident Season, and now I'm eager to get my hands on this one too! There's something about a quietly magical read that always calls to me.

    1. Well, I hope you love Accident Season as much as I did. It had mystery with romance, secrets, and an interesting family dynamic. But it's the writing that won me. It's lovely and I was totally pulled into the world.

  8. I've been meaning to read The Accident Season for ages (I think it's been on my Amazon wishlist since before it came out) but this one sounds even more up my alley. And the cover is gorgeous!
