Non propriamente esaltante e alquanto triste, anche nel finale. Effettive tre stelle e mezzo.

I got lost a lot during this book. Something didn’t quite click with me, although I found the story interesting. It’s hard to recall much about it just hours after finishing it.

Grace is Gone is a plot-driven mystery and suspense novel inspired by real-life events pulled straight from the news headlines. If you are a true crime fanatic, there might not be a lot of surprises for you with this one, but otherwise, this is a page-turner that dives into not only a crime but also a mental disorder.

Although there wasn't a lot of intrigue for me because I was previously familiar with this case, I enjoyed Elgar's writing style immensely and the characters were well developed which I always appreciate in this genre of writing. Her writing was simple yet incredibly purposeful. I love the balance of suspense, family dynamics and life in a small town and is a great reminder of the question, who can you really trust?

Thank you to NetGalley and HarperCollins for an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review.

This was another well written book from Emily Elgar. However, I was able to figure what was actually going on with Grace and Meg almost immediately. It was simply another fictionalized version of the Gypsy Rose and DeeDee Blanchard story, just like Darling Rose Gold. If you are unfamiliar with the story of the Blanchards or haven't read Darling Rose Gold, you will probably enjoy this book more than I did.
