The Face On The Milk Carton by Caroline Cooney

My Rating: 3.4

A 16 year old girl recognizes herself as the face of the missing child on the milk carton. Janie can't believe her loving parents kidnapped her. She realizes that there are no photos of her before she was 5 years old and other things don't add up. She starts to have memories and can't let go of wondering if she was kidnapped twelve years ago.

I enjoyed this book enough to get out book #2 and #3 from the library but, also was disappointed to discover that, despite being made into a movie, this is not based on a true story. I also felt that this was REALLY long and am concerned the sequels will be 'milking' (ha!) this even further. It definitely should have been edited down so it didn't drag so much. Still, a quick easy read.
