I've found myself in a little bit of a YA mystery kick right now. Unfortunately, this did not hit the spot. Bummer, because it started out so promising!!

By far the best thing it has going on for it is it's two mysteries -- the disappearances that occurred almost a hundred years ago and the murder of a fellow classmate in present day. For that, I can say that perhaps this book can be considered a success. There's lots of intrigue in this book however, I can't say that I was particularly surprised by any of the reveals. And I don't really want to read a second book to figure out the mysteries; I wish the author had given us more because I just feel like this is being drawn out for no reason. I also think this might be one of the very, very, very rare occasions where I am not rooting for the romance at all. Stevie was confused when they kissed for the first time and so was I!

I don't think I will be continuing with the series, although I do want to solve the mystery so maybe I will read some spoiler reviews.
