I started reading
The Forgotten Girl thinking I would be confused by
the 2nd or 3rd chapter or that I would already know what was
happening long before I was done with the book. I really enjoyed
reading this book and I was on the edge of my seat the whole
time while reading it; there were times I would have to re-read
a whole page because I would read it so fast just to see what
would happen next that I didn’t know what I had previously
read. I really found the way Mr. Bell had written this book
to be an easy read and I didn’t get confused at all.
Although The Forgotten Girl is written
in 3rd person I felt like I was “Jason” and I
could feel his emotions and see everything he was doing (i.e.
driving a car, talking to someone, etc.) I felt sorry for
“Jason” and his wife because they were sort of
thrown into situations they weren’t prepared for or
even expecting. I think had this been a real life couple that
the things they went through and experienced would have made
their bond stronger. I felt disappointment and anger at “Jason’s”
sister and I could imagine how he would have felt.
Mr. Bell
did a wonderful job writing this book; I feel like both men
and women would enjoy reading this exciting and suspenseful
novel. I think the term “suspense” is the perfect
description and word for The Forgotten Girl. I think
if readers enjoyed Cemetery Girl by David Bell then
they will love this book as well. I plan to buy Cemetery
Girl and read that one as well and compare the 2 books
and see which one I like more. Out of a score of 10 I give
The Forgotten Girl a “9.5” and David
Bell a “9.”
