The Last Resort
The Last Resort is a sunlit summer mystery with a supernatural edge, following twelve-year-old Lila as she learns to balance drama, friendship, and loss at a creaky Victorian inn that might be more than it seems. From New York Times bestselling and Newbery Medal-winning author Erin Entrada Kelly, this middle-grade tale invites readers ages 9–12 who crave humor, suspense, and heartfelt growth.

The inn itself feels like a character—a mystical portal between the living and the spirit world—teasing readers with just enough mystery, humor, and heart to carry you all the way to the last page.
