I scored this book 5/5
⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️
This is the story of Amanda who left home after her parents died and she felt rejected by her brothers. She feels her best friend has taken over the role in her family and she leaves her home and family behind. Will an appeal by her brothers re-establish their relationship?
I particularly liked the happy ending of the book.
The story was enjoyable in its entirety.
I loved where the main character found out her boyfriend was as much a celebrity as he told her he was and she still did not believe him until her family put her right on this.
There were no parts of this story I did not enjoy.
I understand this is a story as part of a larger book.
This book reminded me of no other books I had so far read.
In summary, I would recommend this book for the following readers:
Children No
Young Adult Yes
Adult Yes
If you like Suspense and Mystery this book could be the book for you.
I look forward to reading more books by this author.
Have you ever wondered about why people go missing? Sometimes its complicated, other times they are just in the wrong place at the wrong time.
This is a collection of short stories exploring the reasons people go missing.
Amanda, who couldn't stand living at home anymore; Marina, whose body was found in an old house; Daniel, who walked out after a row and Michelle, who just disappeared
Karen is a multi-genre author and says she is working her way through as many different types as she can. "I've written two romantic/suspense novels and my last book was a thriller, but it is in my short story collections that I'm able to play with the different genres."
However, as an avid reader, she admits to not being as adventurous. I prefer my stories to have a little romance in them, but then romance on its own is not enough. "Throw in some crime, thriller or something interesting into the plot, I will jump on it!"
Besides reading and writing, Karen is an avid book blogger. She reviews every book she reads, both on her website as well as Goodreads and Amazon and you will often find her browsing the shelves of Goodreads to see what other people are reading and doing.
Apart from books, she loves cross stitching and the fact she is 'retired' now and can do whatever she wants!
Karen lives on the beautiful Isle of Anglesey off the North Wales coast. She makes time to walk every day enjoying both the countryside and the ocean.
