The Perfect Stranger by Megan Miranda
4.0
I will aaaaaaaaaaalways be a sucker for a story where someone has to prove that their missing friend even existed at all. It doesn't matter how many times I read it, that shit's like catnip to me.
The mystery about Emmy was really compelling, though I felt the way in which it tied to the sleazy Coach, mysterious caller, and injured woman could have been done better. They didn't feel like threads of the same story; even a day or so after finishing it I'm still trying to recall who was connected to who and if I actually cared about that???
I also wish we'd got more justice for Leah at the end. I like a bit of ambiguity for time to time, but this was an ending that left me personally wanting more justice.
3.5 stars
