So far, my favourite novel that I've read this year. The novel is written in a very unique style that is perfect to tell its story. I can't give any more details because it really is one of those books where the beauty is in the journey. But all I can tell you is that "Elizabeth is Missing" is gut-wrenching, with beautifully written characters that you can't help but root for, a mesmerizing mystery, and so much more. I'm usually not one for flashbacks, but I thought they were beautifully pulled off in this novel, they were so immersive I could actually see everything happening before my eyes.

I cannot recommend "Elizabeth is Missing" enough, I read it in one sitting.
