3.0

My Sister is Missing is a thriller that revolves around, you guessed it, a missing sister, and although it started off well, by about 50% I lost interest as it was not as exciting as it should have been. However, there were some interesting twists in the tale, and it's well plotted as well as moving at quite a clip. It's a quick, non-taxing read, but i felt it discussed some important issues in a lighthearted manner, and they could've been treated more sensitively.

With a background in psychology, Lynch has always been a little obsessed with the darker areas of the mind, but she could've used this knowledge much better throughout the book. A lot of the happenings could be described as serendipity at best, contrived at worst. That being said, this is still a decent, entertaining read.

Many thanks to Killer Reads for an ARC.
