Review: Where She Went by Kelly Simmons Release Date 10/1/2019

4 stars for Where She Went by Kelly Simmons! This book will definitely have you following breadcrumbs trying to figure out what would make a college freshman disappear into thin air, leaving behind her dorm room and belongings. And then, before you know it, you are caught up in a tightly-woven web of college secrets and a network of promiscuous activity.  I loved how this book was written. I felt like I was side by side with a desperate mom, looking for answers, knowing her daughter better than anyone.

The narration flips back and forth between the missing woman and her mother, providing unparalleled suspense as you see the two drift apart and then the details start to line up. This book sheds tremendous light on the lengths that impressionable college women will go to in order to fit in, and conceptually, it was quite disturbing to think that many of the circumstances presented so well in the book could and may be happening on college campuses all over the world.

Wealth, entitled men, a missing woman, and a dark network of secrets make Where She Went 4-star worthy. It was suspenseful in a different way which was refreshing and thought-provoking.
