Intense and some jaw-dropping surprises.
Thanks, @ChaoticMissAdventures

Ooops, sorry for the delay— I could have sworn I posted this last night, but obviously I was more tired than I thought! 😳
Though I really loved Brandon Sanderson‘s Skyward series in May, I am going with this thriller instead for the monthly #12BooksOf2024 because it really hooked me in (and it‘s too hard to pick just one from a series!🤣).
Thanks, @Andrew65 for organizing!
Good mystery with lots of twists, although one stretched my belief a bit too far. Difficult material to read at times.
Kidnapped teen girl returns home 2ish years later. She is Ellie, but something‘s off. Chapters rotate through a variety of characters. Some grisly details. High level of coincidences may push your suspension of disbelief bar too far, but emotionally I was all in. Definite feminist POV pushing for more attention to be paid to missing girls by police, media, and society.
Quote from the father of the kidnapped girl who walks out of the woods alive two years after her abduction. These characters are all flawed, but I‘m feeling for all of them.
Library hold came up on Libby, and I was in the mood for another thriller. 20% in and I‘m liking the multiple points of view, which include Ellie recounting her kidnapping. Still not sure how reliable of a narrator she is, but her visceral details juxtapose nicely with Detective Chelsey‘s fact finding. Chelsey‘s going to be relentless in finding out what happened to Ellie, and I‘m here for it!
