Missing

I have to say, I haven't read a YA thriller before, but Kelley Armstrong made me realize these are books I should read more often.

Winter is stuck in Reeve's End hoping she's going to be able to get away from her father and fulfill her dream of being a doctor. And when she helps a boy she finds in the woods, she's suddenly in the middle of strange happenings and missing people.

This story had twists and turns. I wasn't sure if Winter should trust Lennon, the boy she helped, or what to think of his brother. There were times I was convinced she shouldn't trust both. But that's the great part of a thriller (at least to me) is never knowing who the main character should trust.

This is a fast-paced read with a heroine that I truly enjoyed. I wanted her to figure out who was behind the evil that seemed to be in her woods and that, in the end, she found a happiness her life previously lacked.

I'll definitely be checking out more books by Kelley Armstrong.
