The Vanishing Game is about a teenager girl named Jocelyn and her twin brother, Jack. Jack and Jocelyn have been through the tough times during childhood with their best friend, Noah. After receiving news about Jack’s death in an accident, Jocelyn is distressed until she receives a letter signed by a name only she, Jack, and Noah know about. With the letter from “dead” Jack, Noah and Jocelyn go on a hunt for Jack using the clues left behind for them to find.
As a sucker for mysteries, I thought this book was fantastic. The moment you start reading, it throws you already at a rapid pace for mystery and questions. Every single chapter ending always made me more suspense. One thing I liked about the story was that there were some things that didn’t make sense, but at the end when it was all explained everything clicked!
The most memorable thing about this whole book would be the ending. I won’t go in detail on what happened, but all I can say is that it was something I would’ve never guessed.
