5.0

This book is about a girl who had everything she needed and the world took it from her. Then when she's left trusting the adults around her, they show her they're not trustworthy and they're not safe. So she runs away and she becomes a lost girl.

I loved this book so much. I read it in a single setting and I was left feeling so profoundly seen and understood that I wanted another 200 pages. But like the other books in this series, it was short, to the point and just enough.

The bad:
I didn't find anything to dislike which is very rare. I might come back if I ever think of something.

The good:
Everything. The book never goes into detail about the bad that might happen but you know well enough that you don't need to know more. You're left exactly so startled that you understand but not so much that you feel it's too much. I think all of us kids who wanted to run from home at one point in our life will find a little pocket of hope in this book.

This was the best book in the series for me so far. I will read it again. I'll probably wear down the book doing so.
