3.0

The Reappearance of Rachel Price by Holly Jackson started extremely slow. Even when Rachel reappeared, the pace didn’t pick up. Bel was such an unlikable character that no amount of suspense seemed to help. Fortunately, the twist ending hit me out of left field and took the story from a one star up to a three. 

PROS: 
📖The hidden messages 
❤️The twist ending 
📖Rachel’s plotting 

CONS: 
❤️All the characters, minus Rachel 
📖The random stalker angle 
❤️The pacing 
📖Bel was just far too unlikable
