so-soI was hoping to like this more but it was really hard to get into. I was interested to find out what happened to Barbara but I was not a big fan how the story jumped between time lines. It almost felt like it was trying to decide which storyline to focus on: Barbara's disappearance or Bear's. I felt that these two plots could have been broken into two different books.

pickI would not have picked it up if it weren‘t for my book club,but I loved it. I thought it was so well crafted! I mostly listened to the audiobook (excellently narrated by Saskia Maarleveld), & even though the story jumps narrators and timelines, I never had an issue keeping track of where we were. There were definitely some gut wrenching moments, so I don‘t think I would give this a blanket recommendation to everyone, but it was very, very good.
pickI can understand others' criticisms of especially the ending, but I loved it and couldn't put it down. The little boy made me think so much of my precious 9-year-old girl and what I would do if anything ever happened to her.
I sometimes have this dream that I‘m drowning in a giant bowl of oatmeal. That‘s how I feel when I‘m at home. When I‘m at school, it‘s different. I hang out with Zach, sneak Ritz Bits crackers during class, and read horror novels in history.
