Or maybe it’s a book about trust and about whom you can trust and about betrayal of trust. However, almost before the reader realizes the book has changed from a book about adoption to a book about time travel and the danger that lie therein. His parents have been excruciatingly honest with him, retelling his adoption story ad nauseum until Jonah is so comfortable with his origins that he’s a bit embarrassed about how very open and psychologically correct his parents have been. Jonah is adopted, but to him it’s no big deal. The Missing: Found starts out like a book about adoption. Do not enter if you want to read the book without preconceptions and fore-knowledge.
Haddix has written another imaginative and compelling novel that combines realistic YA fiction with elements of supernatural sci-fi.Īnd that’s all you need to know if you haven’t yet read the book. If you like Caroline Cooney’s Janie series or her Time series, as I did, you should also enjoy Found and, eventually, its sequels. If you’re a fan of Haddix’s other books, either the Shadow children series or her stand alone novels such as Leaving Fishers or Double Identity, you’ll love this new book and be longing for the others in the series to hurry up and get published. Wow! This first book in a new series by best-selling author Margaret Peterson Haddix is a page-turner. Book #4 for Mother Reader’s 48 Hour Book Challenge.
