Everyone knows Bone Gap is full of gaps.

So when young, beautiful Roza went missing, the people of Bone Gap weren’t surprised. But Finn knows what really happened to Roza. He knows she was kidnapped by a dangerous man whose face he cannot remember.

As we follow the stories of Finn, Roza, and the people of Bone Gap, acclaimed author Laura Ruby weaves a tale of the ways in which the face the world sees is never the sum of who we are.

great book

easy listen. fell in love with the characters, especially the o'sullivan boys and petey! overall great book would highly recommend.

Okay

It was okay. the book didn't really catch my eye. it had a great plot I just didn't enjoy it

Beauty is In the Eye of the Beholder

Bone Gap is a quirky, odd tale of two broken brothers, a kidnapped girl, and the "ugly" girl in town. It is written like a fable and the author uses the occasional, surreal imagery to get across his point. You have to be willing to suspend disbelief at times to ascertain the meaning. Like all good authors, he leaves little bits to muse and figure out later and like all good titles, "gap" has more than one meaning. If you don't like weird, then this is not the book for you.

Pretty cool

A little hard to start, but once it starts rolling, it just keeps on going. And then you cant stop. Don't want it to stop. You get to see things in different perspectives and wonder why you haven't seen it that way before.

Feel good book

Love the readers soothing voice and how he makes every character his own with different tones of voice!
