THEN She was fifteen, her mother's golden girl. She had her whole life ahead of her. And then, in the blink of an eye, Ellie was gone. NOW It’s been ten years since Ellie disappeared, but Laurel has never given up hope of finding her daughter. And then one day a charming and charismatic stranger called Floyd walks into a café and sweeps Laurel off her feet. Before too long she’s staying the night at this house and being introduced to his nine year old daughter. Poppy is precocious and pretty - and meeting her completely takes Laurel's breath away. Because Poppy is the spitting image of Ellie when she was that age. And now all those unanswered questions that have haunted Laurel come flooding back. What happened to Ellie? Where did she go? Who still has secrets to hide?

    it was okay. more of a slow solve which isn’t quite what I prefer. wish there had been a bigger twist. I had it figured out too early on for my preference. not bad, but not my favorite. didn’t quite meet my expectations.

    I LOVED this book! Such a fun read! Here are my thoughts :

    Pros

    ✰ Really enjoyed this book from beginning to end! Was hooked the entire time & was never bored! Genuinely couldn't put it down

    ✰ Only gave it 4 stars because the ending felt a little rushed to me & many of the twists were predictable for me. But I didn't hate that they were predictable, I just like crazy plot twists in my thrillers. But this is definitely one of those books where I didn't care that I knew what was gonna happen, I just wanted to see it all go down lol

    ✰ I really loved all of the POV's we got! Usually in thrillers, I hate one of the POV's and/or like one a lot better than the others, but for this book I enjoyed all of them!

    This was such an awesome pick for my club Booktok Buddies!! Can't wait to read more Lisa Jewell books cause she clearly knows how to write a damn good thriller :)
