im so happy I found this book.
Such a short book but everything was so detailed and I feel like I knew the characters in real life. that's how amazing the writing was.
This novel may have suffered from some poor editing choices - but the writing style kept me in. I love the combination of literary writing and exploration of crime.
4.5 stars. We have all read countless books about missing girls, but this felt different. It wasn't your standard mystery - so some readers may be disappointed if going into it with thriller expectations. It is a coming of age story; a division between childhood and adulthood; a before and after. I really enjoyed Tikka's narration as a child - a precocious, lively voice that made me smile.
