Reviews
Good book with some twists and turns!
Sometimes things are a bit of be careful what you wish for!
Very good read for a YA.
It's all about a girl who had to write an essay about who she was. She thought she was adopted at age 3 but she wasn't someone had stolen her. Her and her friend Jam, short for James, go on a mission to find her real parents but have a few issues along the way.
i loved this book. i class it as an action,adventure
This is an absolutely intense book. From the very beginning we as readers are lead to thinking we know the know the truth however throughout the book the real truth is eventually shown.
A girl discovers her parents aren't actually her real parents so she decides to try and find her parents with her best friend but it all goes crazy. They are lead on a thought provoking journey which puts them in a very sticky situation. I would recommend this book to anyone who is up for a mystery!!
When Lauren accidently stumbles on a 'Missing Children' website, she finds something which changes her life in the blink of an eye. Soon, she and her best friend (informally known as Jam) embark on a dangerous journey to Laurens past. Will Lauren find what she expects or will she topple over the edge into an abyss of the unknown?
This is a good book about a girl trying to find out more about her mystery past that keeps ahead of the reader until the last few pages. A good read - however the sequel wasn't as good as its prequel.
