The Trouble with Goats and Sheep by Joanna Cannon
3.0
I'd give this book 3 1/2 stars if that were an option. I enjoyed it very much although I did have a bit of trouble keeping characters straight until the end.
This British book is about 10 year old Grace and her summer spent trying to solve the mystery of the neighbor who has gone missing. Like any neighborhood, there is a cast of characters, wildly incorrect stories told & retold and people just trying to get through life. Grace spends her summer trying to find god in the hopes of finding the missing neighbor (although I still didn't connect the finding god with finding the missing neighbor).
What bothered me about this book was the ending. I didn't get it at all. How did it just end like it did? Didn't make any sense. I feel like I missed something major.
