Imagine that you have slowly lost your sight, then your husband and on top of it all, your baby is crying, you go to pick him up to comfort him, but the baby you are holding is not yours! Not only that, no one believes you! Friends think you are stressed out, exhausted, etc. But you know your own child, you have been feeling as if someone has been following you, things have been moved in your home, etc. Bec goes through a string of emotions when she discovers that her son is gone. No one believes her and she goes on a mission to find out the truth and naturally to find her missing son. This was slow to start for me, but then picked up as Bec and her friend Crystal’s friendship and stories were told. I flipped back and forth with my feelings for the book. Bec’s friends all thought she needed more help, she was losing her sight, lost her husband and her mother in a close amount of time and was raising a newborn. Who would not need help in that situation? But at the same time, she was resilient and showed determination and strength. Plus, she wanted her son back. Her Friends and ex-boyfriend, although skeptical do try to help. Did things get a little repetitive? Yes, but there was the emotional aspect of the book, the feelings expressed, and the search for her missing son. With, this is one that I can say that I liked but did not love. I cannot quite put my finger on what would have made me enjoy this book more, besides not feeling very connected to the characters. It is still enjoyable, and I look forward to more books by this Author. I am teetering between a 3 and a 3.5 for this one. Thank you to St. Martin’s Press and NetGalley who provided me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All the thoughts and opinions are my own. |
