The Book of Lost Friends by Lisa Wingate
4.25
adventurous emotional hopeful informative inspiring reflective sad tense medium-paced

Strong character development: Yes

This was my first book by Lisa Wingate and I truly liked it. It was a hard read, subject-wise, but an important one. Wingate is great at the poignant writing. 

My only main pet peeve was the cliffhanger ending at the end of each chapter that follows up with "everything's all fixed, gotcha" in the next chapter with the same characters. 

I will probably read another book by this same author.
