[fiction] The Missing Girl

By: Norma Fox Mazer

"He could be any respectable ordinary man, but he's not"

I could barely finish this book, but the hope for a happy ending got me going. It's a--beautiful story in a sense because of it's foreshadowing and such. But I'll let you find out for yourself.

The Missing Girl is about five sisters, that without knowing about it are driving a man crazy, his forbidden thoughts about them, his "love" for them. He thinks he's a nice man, he's always been told that. Then one day, when one of the sisters, Stevie had to be sent to New Hamsphire to work for the money that this family desperately needs, everyone is upset. Which leads one of the sisters, Autumn to take a walk and then be captured by her invisible predator.

I won't tell you how it ended because that was so big. The man died, in a way that was already mentioned in the book actually. Foreshadowing! Amazing shit. The girls have their own honest voices. Which honestly, me being as young as I am; I didn't really give into.

but apparently when your 11 you're in grade 5? I wasn't. haha.

Anyways, it was still real. I fell in love with Beauty, Fancy, Stevie and maybe also Mim, becayse they're the ones that are most like me. And through it all, Norma Fox Mazer couldn't have described it any better.

Goodjob :D.
