I didn’t take the reviews seriously enough when they called this book heartbreaking.
It felt like my soul was being crunched up like gravel as the ending drew closer.
This was such a frustrating read. And it’s done on purpose to make you feel frustrated and helpless because it’s just so enraging that no one seems to care that this child has just vanished.
The way the story is told by changing between past and present was a nice touch, made more so once the big reveal happened.
