The Taking by Kimberly Derting

5.0

Sixteen year old Kyra lives a normal life, or well she think she does, until one day she just vanishes out of nowhere. One minute she’s there, the next gone. Five years later she returns, finding herself out of place in the town she grew up in. The fact in the matter is everyone has moved on, and she’s still sixteen. It’s a very captivating read about alien abductions, a topic that is popular, but isn’t the most popular. The characters were all very round and thought out characters that the reader came to grow on, the plotline was solid, even though at points it was confusing what was going on, it all made sense in the end. The bad thing is that it sucks that readers have to wait until the next novel comes out!
