THE LOST by Sarah Beth Durst | excerpt

I promised a lot of excerpts in my last haul video, so here is the first of many. I'm a big fan of Sarah Beth Durst, and am eager to see how she makes the transition to adult fiction - and despite the fact that I have a mountain of things to do to prepare for Fairy Tale Fortnight, I REALLY REALLY want to just dive into this one.
Take a listen, let me know what you think, and if there's something you'd like to hear an excerpt of, tell me in the comments!

PLEASE KEEP IN MIND, this reading is from an advance copy (which means it's not final yet), so this excerpt MAY NOT be accurate against the final version!

Lost your way?
Your dreams?
Yourself?
Welcome to Lost.

It was supposed to be a small escape. A few hours driving before turning around and heading home. But once you arrive in Lost...well, it's a place you really can't leave. Not until you're Found. Only the Missing Man can send you home. And he took one look at Lauren Chase and disappeared.

So Lauren is now trapped in the town where all lost things go-luggage, keys, dreams, lives-where nothing is permanent, where the locals go feral and where the only people who don't want to kill her are a handsome wild man called the Finder and a knife-wielding six-year-old girl. The only road out of town is engulfed by an impassable dust storm, and escape is impossible....

Until Lauren decides nothing-and no one-is going to keep her here anymore.
