I've got this one marked in my library list and am just waiting for some holds to come in and then I'll put this one on hold. Glad to know what you thought and I suspect I will feel the same.

Sounds good, Susan. The "Astroland" thing caught my eye immediately because my kids grew up going to Houston's Astroworld, a great theme park that finally had to close the doors. The park was directly across the feeder road from the Astrodome and we spent many a day there. Unfortunately, the beginning of the end for Astroland was its takeover by local gangs who decided to fight each other there. A gun was pulled at one point, and it was only a matter of time before the park had to close because parents wouldn't allow their teens to go there anymore. (Sorry to get off topic.)

There is something about a storyline involving missing/kidnapped kids that is always intriguing no matter how many times we read it.

I don't mind when a good, fast read is also a little predictable. As long as it's well-written!

First of all, I am glad to see you more or less enjoyed this. I am ok with predictable (I mean, I read a lot of romance), as long as the story is entertaining and pulls me in, which it sounds like this one did.

I just added this to my list! I'm in the midst of a pain flare and having a rough time focusing on reading, but maybe this will help, because it sounds right up my alley- plus my library has a copy! :) I tend to shy away from abduction books, but I'm okay with books where the abductee is still alive. I'm looking forward to reading this!
