The book I have read is The Last Good Place of Lily Odilon
by Sara Beitia. I have not read any other books that Sara has written, but this
book is unique. It is very mysterious and the clues pop out to you like a hint.
The mystery starts to reveal itself as you read the book.
High school student, Lily Odilon, disappears after spending
the night with her boyfriend, the new kid, Albert Morales. Albert never
knew much about Lily, but the two were a couple. Lily once told Albert about
her stepfather, Perry, who acts suspiciously to her. That was way before she
had disappeared. Albert starts to find out more about why Lily is afraid
of her stepfather, because of something she had left behind as a clue for
Albert. Not alone, though, Lily’s younger sister, Olivia, wants to help find
Lily alongside with Albert. The two struggle with family and school as well as
the weather when they start their search.
I would recommend this book to readers who likes reading
mystery books. The plot is not in chronological order, but as you know more
about the past you'll start to know more about what is happening in the present
and that's what makes it unique. Her forgotten memories start to unfold and
that is what made me pay more attention to the book. It is a great, mysterious
book and I enjoyed reading it.
