As I read, I most often visualize myself within the story. While reading Girl Lost, I found myself visualizing the story as if I were watching the story play out on a television screen with an Alex Rider style of production; well, at least until the final chapters. The story was enjoyable and I was surprised to read in the author's letter to the reader that the science involved in the story was not as sci-fi as I had thought.
Girl Lost is a romantic suspense and medical thriller all in one. Its story highlights the themes of allowing God to use the scars of our past to aid others and how brokenness can create family and community, building relationships that allow people to support one another's healing. The well-written story beautifully develops these themes, and even though readers will likely never find themselves in the particular situation the main characters of this book find themselves in, the lessons found within its pages will be easily applied within their lives.
I am grateful to have received a complimentary copy of Girl Lost from Revell via NetGalley without obligation. All opinions expressed here are my own.
