A very good and strong story about the dangers of the internet and grief

Wow!😮 What a story!!😨

This story went very different nearing the end than I would have expected but wow, this is a really good book!
This is story about the dangers of the internet but in a way that didn’t feel forced. It was mostly about grief.
And it is described painfully beautiful. I felt a lot while reading. I think it’s good to know before you decide to read this book because it’s such a huge part of the story.
It sometimes was a bit hard to read because it felt so real but that’s what made it so good at the same time.

It is so beautifully written in a way that is also very easy to read. It does has some repetition but I think this also fits the theme of this book and the way grief feels like very well. Actually the only thing I’d have to say I liked less about this book is the overuse of the sentence “Not really.” At first it hit hard but the more it was used it felt overdone and sometimes not necessary. But later into the book this wasn’t done as much anymore. Otherwise there was absolutely nothing of note to this book, it’s a really good and strong story that I would definitely recommend .

The point of view is from third person and sometimes just changes to another character for a little bit to see things more about how they experience things. The first time this happend I was confused but after that I understood it, it actually made a lot of sense the times this happend and I could catch on to it more quickly.

I really enjoyed the friend group and how there were more layers to these characters than you would think at first.

Alsooo, I really liked the way this story contained boys/men but was still sort of centered around women, in a casual way. I think the only reason I noticed is that so many stories, even with woman as the main character, still somehow end up being centered around men. So I really liked this even though I don’t think its very noticable, which made it feel right.

Overall, I think this is a great story with some good lessons and thoughts woven in. I give The Vanishing of Leah Lockwood ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨ (4,5/5 stars).
