The story is told in first person, and switches viewpoints among Austin, Maggie, and Harvey. The settings include Maggie’s school, her home, and the senior living center. The appealing characters interact in intriguing and realistic ways, and suspense builds on several fronts throughout the story.
This book should interest middle school readers, as well as gently presenting themes of aging, friendship, grief, and caring. Readers should keep in mind that things are not always as they seem! Although this book is the second in a series, it can be read as a standalone.
I received this novel from the publisher and from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. The opinions expressed here are entirely my own. ( )
