Samenvatting

National Book Award Finalist * Printz Award Winner for Best Young Adult Book of the Year

"Ruby's novel deserves to be read and reread. It is powerful, beautiful, extraordinary.''School Library Journal

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.

    In the small town of Bone Gap, Finn and his brother Sean live together. Well, live together… ever since Sean’s girlfriend Roza has disappeared, the boys haven’t been on speaking terms. Finn has seen how Roza has been kidnapped, but can’t describe her kidnapper. Sean is mainly angry because his little brother didn’t try to stop Roza from being taken. Finn tries everything that is in his power to find her and make up for his failure. Meanwhile, Roza is being kept in a strange house by a strange man who wants her, because she is the most beautiful girl he has ever seen. Whatever she wants, he can give her, but Roza can’t give him what he wants; he can’t make her love him, can he?
    THIS BOOK WAS SO GOOD. It’s also hard to review properly without spoiling. Bullet point time:
    • It was really funny at times, yet also heart breaking and very creepy (especially during the ending).
    • Finn is such a great main character. He is a dreamer, a bit of a slacker, but also very friendly.
    • I really enjoyed the fact that Petey (who Finn has a crush on) was considered ugly. It felt very liberating to finally read romance that didn’t involve two stunning main characters, but one who actually really struggles with the way she looks. I think that ‘Bone Gap’ does a very good job overall of flinging clichés out of the window.
    • I liked the parallels between Petey and Roza and the way men treated them.
    • The twist! Ah, the twist. It should have been obvious yet it wasn’t. I felt it was executed incredibly well.
    • The kidnapper was such a creep. Brrr. I loved to hate him.
    • The way the scenery of Illinois was incorporated in the story was done very well, I really felt like I was standing near luscious corn fields and dusty roads.
    • ‘Bone Gap’ is hard to classify. I’ve shelved it as magical realism, though it has elements of other genres as well: contemporary, horror, thriller, mystery/suspense… I think that many people will love it because it has such diverse elements, yet still feels put together.
    Overall, I’m just so glad that I read this novel. Sigh.

  • onderontwikkeld boek

    Na zo'n 40 bladzijden was ik nog niet gegrepen en heb ik het opgegeven. De karakters worden uitgebreid beschreven maar hun gedrag en belevenissen verbinden het verhaal niet
