Once Upon a Crime -- February 7, 2023

 

Local Woman Missing by Mary Kubica is a thriller that had most of the readers in the Once Upon a Crime book discussion group hooked from the first chapter, receiving 4.3 out of 5 stars. 

A young girl returns after being kidnapped for eleven years. The story switches between multiple points of view, so readers are learning about the events leading up to young Delilah's kidnap and the effects of her return on her younger brother. The ending seemed rushed and the readers wished they knew more about the motivations behind the characters' actions, but no one predicted the twists and felt entertained the whole time. 

The Once Upon a Crime discussion group meets on the first Tuesday of every month at 6:30. If you would like to join us, call the library at 574-546-2849 and we will be sure to get you a copy of the books we are reading every month!
