Illustrated by
Nicoletta Ceccoli.
Hadley wants her life back--before her mom married Ed, Hadley gained a stepbrother, and they moved into a decrepit old house. After Hadley finds a dollhouse replica of the house in the attic, she discovers her wishes change reality. Switching between present and past, the story's darkness slowly unfolds as Hadley learns that wishes can be dangerous and not all endings are happy.
