A bit of the social commentary at the end felt rushed, but overall I really enjoyed this book. As someone who reads a lot of thrillers, I was expecting it to go in a totally different direction. But the ending was satisfying, the reveals were realistic and made sense within the story, and most of my questions were answered by the end. This one is for the girls.

I can see why there has been so much talk about this book. It is a grand story about the disappearance of two siblings fourteen years apart, one beloved and one barely tolerated. This is all tied into the class differences between their family and the poorer family that lives on their land running a youth summer camp. I know with thriller/mystery stories there have to be a good amount of characters so you don’t figure everything out in the first few chapters, but there was just too much going on for me. I had a hard time keeping everyone and all the timelines straight.
