Vanishing Acts
by Jodi Picoult
Vanishing Acts -- A story of rebuilding trust (5/1/2014)
“Vanishing Acts” not only takes you on a journey through Delia’s eyes, but also through those of her loved ones- Her father, fiancé, and best friend. Delia is a strong willed individual whose life gets thrown upside down when her father gets arrested. Although Delia is the protagonist, they are all struggling with this predicament.
Vanishing Acts is a novel that almost anyone can connect with. It incorporates some common family struggles like drug addiction, broken trust, rebuilt trust, the building of memories, and the breaking of relationships. The dynamics of each character are enthralling and creative. “Vanishing Acts” will keep your emotions running from start to finish. It brings you into the shoes of each character, which brings the book to life. I highly recommend this novel to anyone looking for some mystery.
