What Is Mine by Lyn Liao Butler
3.5
mysterious fast-paced

3.5 rounded up.

Ok, I flew through this book. It can be triggering as there is a child abduction and drug abuse and mental health stigma.

I can't imagine Hope's terror at realizing her son was missing. I felt really bad that she accused her -standoffish neighbor- of the deed. I became sad when I heard his story.

I would have changed a character arc to be different and handled differently. I've read a lot of books that I feel dealt with mental health a bit better.
