WOW! Holly Jackson does it again.
Holly will always be an auto buy author for me. She reminds me how much I love a thriller mystery. Will be purchasing a hard copy for my shelf.

“The Reappearance of Rachel Price” is so good and I could not put it down or stop thinking about it. This super fast paced novel had my head turning with all the twist and turns. Bel and her family are being interviewed for a documentary on the disappearance of her mom. Rachel Price is the mom who goes missing aka vanishes in to thin air 16 years earlier. Then, one day Rachel just randomly shows up while the documentary is filming. The family should be so happy and excited to finally have Rachel back. Except, her daughter Bel can’t buy the story her “mom” is spinning. Bel is out for blood to prove her mom is lying….
My little Dateline heart couldn't take it! I had to know the ending.

Thank you so much to Random House Childrens, Holly Jackson, and NetGalley for a chance to read this in exchange for an honest review.

some of the plot twists were a bit obvious. The beginning was a bit slow but picked up after 10ish chapters.

Holly Jackson lo vuelve a hacer y me da un libro que no me dejaba tranquila, cada vez que me ponía a leer me quedaba inmersa en la historia y cuando no estaba leyendo solo pensaba en él. Ha conseguido que me encariñe un montón con los personajes y que llore como una desgraciada (Holly panita mia que tienes en contra de romances). Todo el misterio es una locura, como te van dando pistas y como cuando se descubre el pastel de repente queda otra cosa en la sombra que te deja tiesa again. Ash se convierte en un crush literario (aunque em pobrecito mio no aparece tanto como debería) y Bel es mi protegida (al igual que otros dos personajes que no diré porque sería un pedazo de spoiler). Estoy deseando que saque otro libro para metermelo PEC.

if I had a nickel for every time Holly Jackson wrote a book about a person solving a mystery that then becomes complicit in covering up a murder I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird it happened twice
