👎🏼👎🏼Nora goes missing when she is 16 and leaves behind a group of boys from the school she attends. As the boys age they imagine what could have happened to Nora. The book is basically alternating story lines of what happened in the boys lives as youth and what they imagined Nora's life to have been after she disappeared.
It was a mediocre read for me until I got to the quote in comments and then it totally stopped working for me #53of2018

Chellebearss "somewhere in the middle of all of it, somewhere in the dancing and the drinking and the sheer enjoyment of life as it is meant to be lived, Nora Lindell would have fallen in love. She would have fallen in love with a woman. Why? Simple. Because we are men. And so let us say that she fell for a woman" 6y

Chellebearss @Bostonmomx2 ya, the whole concept of the book didn‘t work for me. A little odd. 6y
Chellebearss @azulaco possibly, but it didn‘t work for me. 6y
Clare-Dragonfly Wow, this sounds like everything I didn‘t like about The Virgin Suicides without the aspects I did like. 6y
