 Book Description:


Somewhere between falling and flying… there is a girl.

Iris has a secret. She lost her memory eight years ago and never told a living soul. After an asthma attack one night she finds out that her dreams of a strange house on a snowy island may be a memory resurfacing but the more she learns about the past the more she realizes the life she has been living is a lie. As the façade her father has built starts to crumble around her she will have to decide which means more to her; the truth or her life.

Emma Michaels is a talented author, who would have thought Birds, definitely not me. However, it was an amazing story. Owlet kept you wanting to know more, it kept me captivated and I love when a story does that to me. The more I read the more I wanted to know where Iris' life was being taken. Owlet really pulled on my heart, it was emotional in some parts and frustrating in others. Emma never left you with a dull moment although she did leave me wanting to read the sequel, Eyrie.

Iris is being thrown in a world unknown to her, a world kept hidden from her by the ones she loves. Now learning about this new world or society as some may call it, she is only getting bits and pieces from everyone and not the whole truth. Just as she is starting to learn more about this new life, she finds there are others that are after her because of who and what she is. Fortunately, she has so many who love her dearly and will sacrifice their lives for her.

Iris watched her balcony doors open of their own accord, daring her to jump. The wind  pushed and pulled the curtains but the doors were completely still against the walls, waiting for her to make a move. Her room was alive and gently trying to push her to leave the safety of its four walls, like a mother bird pushing its child from the nest.
“Yes. Fly. You can do it. You know you want to. Jump. It will be so easy.” The voice was soothing and feminine.
 Iris threw the sheets off her legs and walked to her bedroom door. Turning and  facing her balcony, trying to decide if she would give in to her bedroom’s strange form of  guidance, she listened carefully to the hypnotic voice.
“Jump. You know you can do it. Run. Jump. Fly… Run. Jump. Fly. I will lead you there. To the place you wish to see…”
The voice remained soft and lightly tempting but with no real force behind it, letting Iris know that the final decision was hers to make.

This wasn’t the first time her dreams had taken on a mind of their own. She would close her eyes each night and everything would meld with her memories of the night she decided to never leave her father’s side. There was a big difference between Iris when she was awake and when she was fast asleep. When she slept, she knew that what her heart was telling her was true; she was only one leap of faith away from flying. Running to the balcony she climbed over the railing and looked at the night sky.
“It is so simple. Just…FALL.”
