Publisher Description
You can't run from the night, not when it's in your bones.
Sixteen-year-old Marlow lives in a perfectly normal town—if you only look skin deep. She has friends better off as enemies and secrets sharp enough to kill, but it's her own broken heart that leads to her premature demise—and that's where the story begins.
It is upon her death that Marlow will learn the truth of her dark destiny. Ensnared in a haunting love triangle, she realizes both boys have holes in their hearts; gaping spaces she can never hope to fill. Scars from loving the same girl, a girl who stayed dead.
Handpicked by Death to right a wrong, Marlow must make a decision that may ruin them all—and her sleepy hometown? It isn't as she'd known it in life. Wicked creatures haunt the woods that hunger for the taste of flesh and bones and soon sinister outsiders arrive looking to do far worse than kill.
Haunting and beautiful, discover Skeleton Lake as we have not seen it before—in a striking new extended tenth-anniversary edition.
Customer Reviews
Interesting world
Skeleton Lake is the first book in The Hollows series by Angela Kulig.
Marlow is a teenage girl and the story begins with her death. Her hometown isn’t what it appeared to be when she was alive. She must learn about her new world while keeping up appearances in her old life.
This isn’t a genre I usually read, but I was pulled in. This was a whole new world and I found myself worrying about what would happen to these already dead characters. I can’t wait to read the next book!
I want to thank the author and Booksprout for the ARC (Advanced Reader Copy) of this book. I am voluntarily leaving an honest review.
Love at the lake
Skeleton Lake by Angela Kulig is Book 1 in The Hollows series. A great adventure with an intriguing storyline, world of living skeletons and a mystical lake. The characters are well written and interesting. Marlow is a teenage girl that is dead who must figure out what happens next. Her town was weird while she was alive and now that she is dead even more so. Looking forward to the next in series.

Too many mistakes and rushed, sloppy writing
This book was riddled with so many typos and sentences that were grammatically incorrect that it made it impossible to enjoy. It’s very distracting to go back and reread sentences to make sense of them because they were either written incorrectly or not corrected with an editor.
