Megan Miranda - All The Missing Girls (2025-05-18)

Narrated by: Rebekkah Ross
Length: 10 hrs and 5 mins

3.5 Stars. I struggled a bit with going backwards in time and trying to recall what the characters knew vs what I knew. But I think it all came together well enough. Some loose ends that weren't tied up (why did Daniel hit Nic???) but a fun read.

I was more or less into it. I guessed a few elements and I wouldn't say there was any big surprise I couldn't have seen coming (I even predicted one and noted it). But I was interested and wanted to hear the end.
