How to Find a Missing Girl by Victoria Wlosok
4.0

How to Find a Missing Girl was such a fun read. A brilliant YA thriller following teenage protagonists who proclaim themselves the sapphic detective agency, investigating the disappearances of two local girls. Once it gets going, it's an addictive mystery that spurs you on to read more. Clues are sprinkled throughout but I was kept guessing about a lot of the details right until the very end.

The cast of characters feel very contemporary in a way that made me feel my age at first, but I hope will feel relatable to young adult readers! Our main protagonist, Iris, is impulsive and stubborn, but ultimately motivated by love for her friends. It is lovely to read about teenagers who are out and proud of their identities in a high school setting, without the story revolving purely around coming out, or battling homophobia. It is truly a satisyfing mystery with bonus great representation.

Thanks to NetGalley for providing me a copy of the book in exchange for an honest review.
