Book Description:

Bits and Ash were children when the kidnapping of their younger sister, Alena--an incident for which Ash blames himself--caused an irreparable family rift. Thirteen years later, Ash is living as an Orthodox Jew in Israel, cutting himself off from his mother, Ellie, and his wild-child sister, Bits. But soon he may have to face them again; Alena's remains have finally been uncovered. Now Bits is traveling across the world in a bold and desperate attempt to bring her brother home and salvage what's left of their family.

Sharp and captivating, Who by Fire deftly explores what happens when people try to rescue one another.

I was in between on this book. I hated the characters because I thought them so damaged and egocentric, but I think it was well written for the same reason. It takes good writing for me to have an emotional reaction to characters. It's a short read, which is good.

This book was OK but I must admit that I had a hard time getting through it. I think it just wasn't my "type".
