The Vanishing Season by Joanna Schaffhausen

4.0

I love that it takes place where I live and I knew the landmarks they were talking about. Books that contain serial killers always seem to catch my attention, and this book was no exception. I would definitely consider this a good, solid read.

Ellery was a great character, she was so determined to help and fix everything she possibly could. It took me a bit but I did end up really loving Reed. He was a very complex character, as was everyone in this story. They had all been through so much and it still wasn’t over. Found myself second guessing all of the characters.

Definitely didn’t see the end twist coming, caught me completely off guard. Ending was very intense and I had to finish in one sitting. I needed to know what was going to happen. I really enjoyed the story, but wished the pacing was a little different during the middle, or maybe just more even throughout. Overall I enjoyed this read and would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a good, solid thriller.
