If you like GONE GIRL, you will love DON'T TRY TO FIND ME.
Marley is not happy with her life. Her parents argue all the time and she is just sick about it. Marley has met several people on line. She especially connects with B. Marley and B decide it is time to meet up. Marley leaves her parents a message on the chalk board with the simple words DON'T TRY TO FIND ME.
Marley's parents are beside themselves. Her mother checks, but cellphones and Facebook are wiped clean. The police are called and they are trying to figure out if this is a run away, or if there is something else behind this.
Holly Brown's novel is one of those books that you keep wondering what is going on in this family. Why would a 14-year-old girl leave the comfort of her home to meet up with someone online? Holly Brown takes you behind the scenes. What was really going on in this family?
Holly Brown puts you in the mind frame of a 14-year-old. Could this book be based on a true story? We hear in the news everyday about people online either trying to set up a meeting with a child. I'm always glad to hear when the police catch those kinds of people. Holly Brown also tells of what can happen in a family that has secrets. Could these secrets ruin a family? You wouldn't think that a 14-year-old would have so many problems that they can't deal with.
On a side note, the local paper every week lists the must-read books. DON'T TRY TO FIND ME was listed in the top ten books to read. I agree.
