The first thing that drew me to this book was how absolutely stunning the cover is! Wow!! The colors are gorgeous and reminds me of the beach! Next thing was that the synopsis immediately reminded my of the Natalie Holloway case and how much all of America was devastated that a girl could just disappear and no one was finding her! Saint X is a work of fiction and I had high hopes for it. It is listed as a thriller but to me it was more mystery/coming of age/discovering familia relationships. The writing was beautiful and at times repeative and lengthy. There is so much hype to this book that sometimes that can shadow how wonderful the book truly is. Give this one a chance and I think that multiple audiences will enjoy it.
