Her conversational style comes through in the book.. (0 more)
I actually won a copy of this when it came out.. I love her work, I love her personality.. This book goes beyond all of this...She talks about people's reluctance to ask for help, or think outside the box while keeping the tone on the level of a best friend. She talks about her life, her fans, and how she grew her work based on asking the fan base for help. Keeping the fan base as part of the process she has kept a very loyal following. There is a lot to be learned within the stories she shares and the reasons she added them to the book. Her writing is warm, and undeniably honest.

When I learned that Michelle Hoover based this historical fiction novel on a true family story about two girls who suddenly disappeared from their rural family home, I knew I had to read it. Find out why I have this book a strong four out of five stars in my review here. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2016/04/25/the-lost-and-what-they-find/

Rachel has everything that she could ask for but she doesn't realise it as she's too busy chasing a dream based on her mother's last words. We travel with her to the City of Angels where she finds out that there is a dark side that she never even anticipated.

I really enjoyed this book and the two main characters, but I did have to remind myself that Rachel was making decisions based on an 18-year-old's perspective. She was very young and very naive and part of me actually wanted her to stay that way but another part of me was wanting to shake some sense into her.

I loved the appearances of Jody, Leo and Angel. It was a perfect cameo for them and I really hope to see more of all of them.

This story is well-written and with a fast-flowing plot. Another excellent book in the Songbird series. Definitely recommended.

* A copy of this book was provided to me with no requirements for a review. I voluntarily read this book, and my comments here are my honest opinion. *
