The idea of this novel is genius...I'm sure we've all had that moment in our lives where we really wonder where our missing things have gone. The creation of a place, simply called 'Here' with all the missing people, clothes, objects and animals is something I would very much like to believe in. Even for just that nice feeling that those pictures of missing people are living another life somewhere, rather than gone forever and their bodies waiting to be found.

Sandy Short was an odd character but I liked it. Her inability to fit in but yet to want to help her mother and her boyfriend was endearing and we really rooted for her when she stumbled onto Here and willed her to be able to get out.

The chapter with Jenny May was sweet and the image of these two girls meeting after 25 years is one that can fill you with emotion. I think everyone knew that Sandy Short had finally found what she was looking for.

I found it enjoyable and it had the Cecelia sparkle of Magic that always reaches out and touches me whenever I read her novels.
