I'm Not Missing by Carrie Fountain
It’s senior year, and Miranda Black’s best friend, Syd, has run
away—suddenly and inexplicably, leaving behind nothing but a pink
leopard print cell phone with a text message from the mysterious HIM.
Everyone wants to know why Syd left, but the truth is, Miranda has no
idea. When Miranda’s mother abandoned her as a child, Miranda had found
shelter in her friendship with Syd, who wore her own motherlessness like
a badge of honor. Now Miranda’s been left behind again, left to
untangle the questions of why Syd left, where she is—and if she’s even a
friend worth saving, all while stumbling into first love with the most
unlikely boy in school. How do you take on the future when it feels like
so much of your past wasn’t even real?“As Mir starts to piece together clues about Syd in this debut novel, the light thriller turns to romance à la John Green, with impeccable realism and spot-on dialogue. While Mir and Nick's relationship builds, the author never lets the mystery falter as she keeps readers guessing about Syd's secrets and whereabouts. A beautiful new voice to watch.” —Kirkus Reviews
