As far as mysteries for YA goes, this is definitely a good one to look at. We start out with the confession by the person that killed Zoe Spanos, but as the book progresses, we start to realize that maybe things aren't really as clear cut as we think. This book starts out with a girl who goes to a small island to be a nanny. And people are amazed at how much she looks like a girl who has been missing. As time goes along, she remembers being a friend with Zoe (the missing girl) and decides to confess to killing her. As we take the trip down memory lane, she also becomes friends with Zoe's best friend who is determined to find out what happened on her podcast. While it's an interesting premise and it did keep me glued to the book to find out what happens at the end, there were a few too many coincidences that made it seem sort of far fetched. But then again, I am writing this review almost 2 months since I read it, so I could just be doing the Zoe Spanos memory.
