The Lost and the Found by Cat Clarke

3.0

I was really addicted to this story, but I think it was a bit too laboured. The whole premise is that the sister will come back after 13 years and the first 50 or so pages are the build up to that and I hate to say it but it dragged... BUT as soon as Laurel did appear I was engrossed. I wanted to know more about what had happened to her so desperately that I couldn't put the book down.

Faith was such a great character to follow because she had a lot of conflicting emotions. Obviously, she was relieved and happy that her sister returned, but now she has to handle having an older sister who everyone adores. It's a rough and complicated time for her.

I saw the plot twist coming. From about a mile away. I still really liked the explanation and was pretty satisfied with the ending overall. I just wish I'd been more surprised. I think the very last paragraph (before the book excerpt) was the bit that really shocked me. I'll be thinking about it for a LONG time.

If you liked this then I would definitely recommend If You Find Me by Emily Murdoch.
