Girl, Missing by Sophie McKenzie

Quite scandalous

I think that the Lauren and Jam relationship was unnecessary. Also what kind of a name is Jam? Bloody Marmalade. That spiteful Preserve, left Lauren in the middle of a forest in a blizzard. Ugh, he does NOT pass the vibe check.

Also, can Shelby please SHUT UP, she’s so horrible to Lauren and Madison. And LAUREN, DON’T EVEN GET ME STARTED. Her whole character is: ‘I’m not like other girls’ and she’s so selfish towards both her families.

The only character I can bare is Madison. Ugh.

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

The main character was far to immature and whined a huge deal .

Read for the second time. Just like I remembered...this book is not for me. Usually I love books that are in this genre but this one was just not executed well in my opinion. Baring in my mind that this book is almost the same age as me, I shouldn’t be too surprised that the book is not within the world we have today. Certain comments that were made did not sit right with me. But overall this book was just not that great. A one star book, and that one star going to the little sister Madison and Jam who both carried the book in my opinion. There’s a lot more to be said about why I disliked this book - starting with an annoying mc and highly unrealistic storyline - but I won’t go into that now. In saying that it is a really quick read and I flew through it this second time. But this book will now be finding a home elsewhere.

This whole thing just felt so rushed and unbelievable. I was hoping it'd be more about the search to figure out what happened to her and her reaction behind that - which, I guess it was, but it was much faster-paced than I anticipated, and so much that happened just felt so ridiculous. Not a bad book, but if you're looking with something that dives deep into the emotive side of things, this isn't it.

I did really try to give this book a chance but everything just felt so rushed and there was little to no detail in each scene. Also, I was having a hard time feeling any connection with the characters and it’s all very predictable.

A boring, childish book. Lauren is an annoying little 14 year old who thinks she knows everything. Wonders off to America just like that??? She clearly proved from page 1 why she couldn’t know the truth about her adoption. Everything was unrealistic.
