post 7: final project

Missing You and The Stranger were very different in a lot of ways but also very similar. Harlan Coben seems to stick to a certain genre/story line. The mystery of the missing person.
Missing You was about Kat trying to find a missing mother while simultaneously trying to figure out who murdered her dad. On top of all of that, she recently found her ex fiancĂ© on a dating website who turns out to be someone who she never even knew. She gets caught up in between lies and the truth and soon can't determine the difference between the two. 
The Stranger was about Adam trying to figure out why his wife, Corrine, lied to him about being pregnant, where she disappeared to, and who The Stranger actually is (since no one knows his actual identity). Adam, much like Kat, gets caught in all the lies and doesn't even know what the truth is anymore. 
Harlan Coben uses the same writing style for each book. He also incorporated the technology aspect in to both of the books, making them more modern for his audience.
