BEFORE HE FINDS HER by Michael Kardos ****

This was interesting enough, beginning with a teenager who gets pregnant and begins to wonder where her bio dad is because she had been "adopted" when she was 3 by a couple. I can't say more than that without giving away a lot of the story, but she goes back to her old town to look for her real parents, she knows her mother was killed but believes it was her father who did it and she is under the impression the adopters have kept her hidden all her life so he wouldn't find her.

Not so. Read the book for the info. I thought it moved well, you travel back in time to when the parents were alive and then back to where Melanie is searching. In some places like 215 I got confused when David says the house across the bay is pink his ex wife lives there and "he wasn't going to be the one who moved away from the bay" and Melanie dumb as a rock doesn't know what he's saying ... duh. On page 310 she's talking to her fake dad Wayne and a cop comes to take her to the PD to get grilled by a cop. Meantime NO ONE mentions Wayne being in the room, not who he is or why he's there. NOTHING. That sort of pissed me off like what's he got on the invisible cloak?

Anyways it's worth a look at the library. Moves along well hated the ending. Your turn!
