John Connolly, The Book of Lost Things
Atria (2006) ISBN: 0-7432-9885-3
Score: 1

A 12-year-old boy in WWII England follows his dead mother's voice into a world of twisted fairy tales. I have no idea what age audience this is intended for: most YA readers probably aren't interested in heroes younger than they are, but there are bits that probably aren't appropriate for younger readers (the consequences of adults "laying together" is a plot point in a couple places), and the author's other books seem to be dark mysteries.

Next Book: Maria V. Snyder, Poison Study

I've seen the book in the grown-ups section of Borders. I haven't checked though - is it marketed as YA?
