⭐⭐⭐⭐✨

Thank you so much to @simonbooks and @simon.audio for the gifted book and audiobook!

📖Title: The Return of Ellie Black
✍️Author: Emiko Jean
📅Pub date: May 7, 2024
⏳Audiobook length: 10 hrs 11 min
🗣️Narrator: FULL CAST

🧡This one was so much more than I was expecting it to be! I’ve read a lot of missing girl trope thrillers lately, but this one was so unique and original!

🧡This is my second book by Emiko. The first was MIKA IN REAL LIFE which is a YA women’s fiction vibe so to have her so successfully shake it up and drop an INCREDIBLE thriller is really admirable!

🧡After Ellie has been missing for 3 years, she reappears out of nowhere without the answers detectives and family members are searching for. This story is told in multiple perspectives (the audio was a phenomenal full cast) which added a lot of depth and helped keep me locked into the story the whole time!

🧡Little by little, readers are given flashbacks of what happened during Ellie’s missing years and some of it was HARD TO READ!

🤯The ending was surprising to me and a couple twists really had me shocked!

👏One part of this story was especially and specifically shocking to me. It’s spoilery so I won’t say, but once you read it, you’ll know if you know me what I’m talking about!

Read this if you’ve read and enjoyed:

📖The Quiet Tenant by Clémence Michallon
