The Roanoke Girls in Around the Year in 52 Books

Nothing thrilling about this. Only mystery about it is discovering what happened to Lane cousin and discovering things about all the recent Roanoke girls. But as I kept reading I figured out everything before it's revealed.
Weird family secrets.
Nothing to brag out just Lane meeting her grandparents and cousin after her mother killed herself.
Predictable to me. I never connected with any character.
2 🌟. Sorry didn't see anything to brag about with this one. I need more thriller more mystery, more ...more

Feeling rather meh about this one. It was very Gillian Flynn to me but less intriguing somehow. Would have appreciated more on former Roanoke girls.

Hard to say that this book was an enjoyable read. The subject matter was very dark, but the writing was gripping and portrayed this ugly topic in a realistic and authentic way. Yes it triggered feelings in me from my own ugly past, but I would not have NOT wanted to read it. A very good book, but not one for everyone.

The subject matter of this book was very disturbing and I am not sure I would have chosen it if I had been aware. That being said it was a well written story and I am not sorry I read it.
