What reading level is Orphan Island book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

I hope you feel inclined to join, and will dance with me.”
“I would rather watch,” said Rosamond. She felt unsteady on her legs; her head swam pleasantly, and the moon tumbled about.
There began flutes, drums, the clashing together of shells. Mid-Victorian waltz-tunes made the night plaintive and sweet. Miss Smith, in her youth, cannot have been too evangelical to go to balls; or was it Dr. O’Malley who had thus handed down music and the dance?
There was a rush of young people to an open space o
...f smooth grass, between the woods and the sea. The elders, more sedately, sat and lay about the shore, or in the shadowed thickets, listening to the music, watching the dance.
Rosamond found herself solitary, lying beneath great feathery trees, between the moonlight and the shade. A thousand perfumes drenched the warm air; sweeter than honey was the silver night on the tangled wood. Exquisite was the purple sea, foam-edged, and exquisite the wistful, swaying, voluptuous rhythms of the dance.
