Okay so this book is getting really interesting 🤨

Unmissing by Minka Kent is becoming really interesting 🤨

So far it has been a slow burn to the action!

Which I have mixed feelings about but I have patience because I know it’s intentional.

I am reading this book on the Kindle app for IOS on my iPad.

So far it has been really good and I know the other day I had a different perspective/opinion but today was different because we finally got to the plot that we were looking for and the good jaw dropping info!!!

(Vague on purpose)

Go read this book or add it to your massive TBR list!! ☺️❤️
