Tiffany goes missing early in the novel, so her characterization is relayed more through Adam’s reflections. I found her likable as a mom and I found Adam very likable. The story is thought-provoking and will stay in your mind for quite a while – it is a contemporary piece in light of our culture today. The genre is classified as Teen and Young Adult, so I just wanted to add my thoughts about the suggested age group. There is a sexual encounter in the novel, so I’d suggest the earliest age range at the age of the protagonist – seventeen and up. I rated Misplaced at 3.5 out of 5. http://www.fictionzeal.com/misplaced-lee-murray/ (  ) FictionZeal | Aug 31, 2014 | no reviews | add a review
"One evening, just before tea, Adam's mum pops out for the milk and doesn't come back, launching a frantic nationwide search. After weeks with no leads, the television crews drift away, the police start asking hairy questions, and Adam's dad starts seeing someone else. Adam's life is falling apart. But perhaps it was already unravelling and Adam just hadn't seen the signs? He's spending so much time in the counsellor's office, he's beginning to think he's a head-case. Then he meets Skye, who it seems has misplaced a parent too, and things start to look up. That is, until a body is found"--Back cover. No library descriptions found. |
