Ohh. The Lost and Found Girl has such a sweet cover! It immediately made me want to dive in, as I've needed a break lately. Written by Maisey Yates, this is an emotional novel with character-driven plots.

Ruby McKee was found abandoned as a young girl. That alone would have made her story memorable. But the events surrounding her finding turned her story into a sensation. Now she's seen as a beacon of hope in her small town.

While Ruby has never been left wanting, she still feels compelled to uncover the truth of her origin, as do her sisters, though each for very different reasons. Soon, the truth will be out, and the sisters will have to decide how to react.

Every now and then, I stumble across a book that blindsides me with how emotional it is. The Lost and Found Girl is one of those books. I thought I had been prepared for it, but clearly not! So I've gotta respect a book that manages to surprise me so much.

There are many things to like and appreciate about The Lost and Found Girl. Primarily, I love just how different it is. It's not like any novel I've read, though maybe that just means I need to branch out from my preferred genres more often.

The Lost and Found Girl has four main characters. Yet every one of them is so different from the other. It made them feel more real and human, which I adored. It is easy to find one character to relate to when they cover such a broad spectrum.

This novel mixes several genres, which doesn't always work out. But it does in this case! It made for the perfect read, at least for me. I hope others enjoy The Lost and Found Girl as much as I did!

Thanks to HQN and #NetGalley for making this book available for review. All opinions expressed are my own.
