I really really enjoyed this. I liked the podcast angle, maybe because I love podcasts. But I also really liked Jess and Tegan's story, and learning about Adam and Salem. The history and goals of the characters, the meaning of the title's implication that someone can disappear... all of it I loved. I wish I'd gotten more insight into Salem (does Kate Clayborn want to actually make the podcast from the book?), because she seems like a fascinating person. But Jess and Adam were a study in waiting for what is right, learning who you are by falling in love, and figuring out what love really means.
