The Mystery of Hollow Places by Rebecca Podos
3.0
I'm really torn on this one.
On one hand, this was a wonderful character driven story. I loved Imogene and just how driven and yet aimless she was. Imogene is struggling. Her dad has just gone missing and she's left with her stepmom. Imogene's mom left when she was little and she's never known her.
But her father left her a clue. A clue to a puzzle that Imogene knows only she can decipher.
I did really like Imogene with all her flaws and insecurities. She was a great character to read about and I loved her friendship with Jessa. I even loved her crush on Chad.
But the story....was slow moving for me. The mystery never really hooked me and I struggled and almost stopped early on. In the end, I'm glad I continued. The writing was great and the end was interesting.
