Elizabeth is Missing by debut novelist Emma Healey is a particular favorite of Amanda's and today has been chosen as the featured review on Booklist's website in honor of Mystery Month.
Simultaneously a sophisticated mystery and a heartbreakingly honest meditation on memory and identity, Elizabeth is Missing possesses an unforgettable narrator in Maud, a grandmother fighting a losing battle against the devastating effects of memory loss.
"Part mystery, part meditation on memory, part Dickensian revelation of how apparent charity may hurt its recipients, this is altogether brilliant."
– Booklist
This book goes on sale June 10, but until then you can snag an egalley on Edelweiss.
