Review
“A story about redemption, self-forgiveness and the healing power of truth...emotional truth. Lyrical...heart-wrenching.†―New York Times Book Review (Editor's Choice)“Beautifully written. The deep bond between the sisters is almost physically palpable, as is their intense longing for love and acceptance; they will quickly endear themselves to readers.†―School Library Journal (Starred Review)“A compelling narrative that is both unflinching about life's pain and hopeful about its possibilities.†―Kirkus Reviews (Starred Review)“First-time author Emily Murdoch has written a painful, hopeful, surprisingly quiet book that charts the best and worst of humanity, especially family, with characters who worm their way into your heart-or repulse the reader's very nature. Her narrative is full of unique yet breathtaking similes, detailed descriptions, and unflinching dialogue all masquerading as backwoods Tennessee dialect... She validates the courage and ingenuity of young people the world over for whom survival is instinctive; protection of siblings is nonnegotiable; and love both a right and a gift bestowed upon those fortunate enough to find it.†―Booklist (Starred Review)“Within two pages, I was so hopelessly hooked, I felt like the story had attached itself to me. The storyline is original and suspenseful, but most of all, it was Carey's voice that had me flipping the pages. This is one of those books you devour.†―Jennifer Brown, author of Hate List“If You Find Me grabbed me by the heart on page one and didn't let go till the very last word. Murdoch's language is lovely, her storytelling gripping.†―Carol Lynch Williams, author of The Chosen One“Searing . . . hurt my heart and will probably haunt my dreams - a beautiful book about survival, identity, family, love and so much more.†―Jenny Downham, author of Before I Die“Carey and Nessa's story is memorable and deeply moving, and readers will find it very easy to fall in love with these girls.†―Publishers Weekly

I received this book from the Goodreads First Reads Program in exchange for an honest review.If You Find Me by Emily Murdoch is a haunting read that will stay with you long after it's done. The novel stars Carey, a teenaged girl who has been living in an abandoned camper in the woods for years with her younger sister, Jenessa, who she has taken care of, while her druggie mother has been in and out of town and eventually, missing, for the past two months. The two girls get discovered by social services and Carey's father, whom she hasn't seen for a decade, and what happens next is a revelation, both for her and her new adoptive family.I don't want to give away too much about the plot, because it is so wonderful to discover all of the intricacies as you read yourself. The characters are deftly drawn, beautifully written, and poignant. Carey, the protagonist, carries the piece, which is vitally important to the success of this novel. She is very likeable and sympathetic as a character. Her younger sister, Jenessa, is the perfect combination of sweet and loveable, and mystery, since we know there is a reason why she hasn't talked for years. The supportive cast of characters is also wonderful, including Carey's father, Melissa, their new stepmother, Delly, the jealous new stepsister, and Pixie, an odd, whimsical new friend for Carey. The prose is gorgeous, and the description spot on. The plot races along at a perfect pace, and I was gripped from start to finish. As you can tell, I was greatly impressed by this novel.If I had anything less than positive to say about this novel, it has to do with the boy in this piece-- his part seems a little too easy, too perfect. But that's about all I can say about it-- it obviously didn't change my opinion about the book.Overall, a compelling, heartbreaking, and beautifully written first novel-- Murdoch is an extremely talented writer, and I will be watching for her future work.
Those are the perfect words to describe If You Find Me. The story might seem very complex with a lot of twists and mysteries seeing that the MC lived in the woods for most of her childhood, but it's really not. If You Find Me is a very simple, straight-forward story about a girl and her 5 year old sister trying to adjust in a civilized life after being raised in the woods by their mother. And such a horrible mother at that, but there no point in discussing her because then this review will turn into a rant. Moving on, I described the story as beautiful because of the precious sisterly bond between Carey and Janessa. Oh my god, I loved them! I loved that even though they didn't have everything, not the best clothes or enough food, they had each other all the time and none of them let the other down. Carey was basically Janessa's mom, she fed her, taught her, took care of her and maybe that's what made them so special and beautiful overall. There are a lot of WHYS in this storyline. Why did their mother took them in the wood? Why did she leave them? Why did Janessa stopped speaking? And the answers to those questions were completely heartbreaking. I knew something bad had happened for Janessa to act that way, but never in my life did I imagine what really went down. The last part was so hard for me to read, I couldn't see beyond my tears. It is surprising that such a short length book (250 pages) ended up touching me so deeply. In few pages, I learned a lot about family, strength, hope and love. There's this funny thing Carey always did that I thought was so sweet; whenever she wanted something, she prayed on a can of beans or actually the creator of fava beans, Saint Joseph because that's the only stable (I guess) food she had in the woods. Ahhh, I loved those parts, they made Carey so genuine. My favorite quality in Carey, besides her strength, innocence and her overall confidence was her respectful nature. She was so polite to everyone, her father, stepmother and even the annoying/immature step-sister, but she wasn't naive at all. If someone was rude to her, she'll gave them back in her own unique way. How awesome is that! I loved Carey! There are so many other things I want to share about this wonderful book, but then I'll spoil everything and we don't want that. In short, If You Find Me is a MUST READ! Highly recommended to anyone who loves contemporary and realistic reads. I do want to point out that this book is not about how Carey survived in woods, but more about how she's adapting to the new changes. Within few pages, she's rescued by her father, so we get to see the woods scenes in form of flashbacks. Though they still end up making such a powerful impact in the overall storyline. I don't think I'm going to forget Carey and Janessa anytime soon. They truly left a mark on me and I'll be revisiting their story again. Go pick up If You Find Me, you won't regret it.
