TW:Kidnapping
Bone Gap is a story about a small town and what happens when a beautiful girl named Roza goes missing. The story switches perspectives and follows Finn, Roza, and the people of Bone Gap. This was written so well. I picked this book up because a lot of authors that I like had mentioned it in their insta stories so I thought I’d pick it up.

This is a creepy story that switches between Rosa, who has been kidnapped and is being held far away in a house by her kidnapper and the two brothers with whom she used to rent a room. This is a story about a girl who was abducted, and no one knows what happened to her.

I loved the writing of this book, it was so beautifully written that I got sucked into it. The story dabbles into magical realism, so if that isn’t your thing, then you may not enjoy it. It also could be considered a mystery, or a bit of a thriller. If you’ve read Coraline, you’ll know that Coraline travels between different worlds and this book also does that.

The reason that I rated this book only 3 stars is that for such a well-developed setting and characters, not a lot happens. That isn’t necessarily a bad thing, but it just left me a bit confused. Near the end, it is revealed that her kidnapper has powers to see the dead. By this point the book kind of turned into a giant What the Heck? I think the book was fine. It didn’t blow me away. It did give me creepy feelings, and I managed to read it for two days. It’s just a plodding book for the first 50% and then really picks up. When I think of this book, it reminds me of ‘The Child Finder,’ I read that one last year, and it had a similar creepy vibe, with beautiful writing. All in all, this was a pretty meh, read. It was okay but not great.
