Found (The Missing, #1)

Margaret Peterson Haddix

Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

Thirteen-year-old Jonah has always known that he was adopted, and he's never thought it was any big deal. Then he and a new friend, Chip, who's also adopted, begin receiving mysterious letters. The first one says, "You are one of the missing." The second one says, "Beware! They're coming back to get you." Jonah, Chip, and Jonah's sister, Katherine, are plunged into a mystery that involves the FBI, a vast smuggling operation, an airplane that appeared out of nowhere - and people who seem to appear and disappear at will. The kids discover they are caught in a battle between two opposing forces that want very different things for Jonah and Chip's lives. Do Jonah and Chip have any choice in the matter? And what should they choose when both alternatives are horrifying? With Found, Margaret Peterson Haddix begins a new series that promises to be every bit as suspenseful as Among the Hidden, and proves her, once again, to be a master of the page-turner.

    Got this book in a collection of audio books, and I must say I rather enjoyed this quick book. I felt like the thought processes of Jonah and his sister were absolutely perfect--I identified a lot with Jonah even though I wasn't adopted.
    Honestly didn't see the whole 'time' aspect coming, and though I think that the "bad guys" were completely laughable and unrealistic, I was at least surprised.
    May continue this series if my library has the next ones on audio, otherwise I probably won't. Especially since it appears that the next one will be quite a different style of setting....
