review 1: I accidentally skipped this book and started to read #5. I was about halfway through when I realized the mistake. Thinking that it wasn't too expensive, I went ahead and ordered this and read it. Thoroughly disappointed. If I could get my money back, I would. About 1/3-1/2 of these 32 pages are the exact same pages that are in book #5! Huge waste of money! Save yours and just wait to read it all in the 5th book.
review 2: Quick little update on Janie Johnson, complete with cell phone and iPad use. (Apparently Janie has only aged 3 years in the 20 years since Cooney first introduced us to her, but the world she lives in grew up without her--gotta appeal to those millenials!) As I read it, every character was so comfortingly familiar--maybe because my cop... morey of _The face on the milk carton_ is in tatters, and every memory of Janie's almost seemed like one of my own. I didn't even realize how familiar I was with this novel until coming back to it. Basically this was an intro/hook to Cooney's final installment (who would have thought) of the Milk Carton series, which comes out in January...duh duh duh... less
