Then She Was Gone-let’s talk about it

Honestly I have no words for how insane this book was. Definitely not what I was expecting but I also cannot stop talking about it. It’s a mix between romance and true crime when a 15 year old girl goes missing and 10 years later her family starts getting answers but none of the answers they receive are the answers they were expecting.

⭐️Overall rating: 5/5: i literally just finished this book and I already want to read it again.
