Although it was predictable in parts, I enjoyed this book, but did struggle to get into it.

I liked how it was told with alternating points of view, as I feel that this helped build the plot well, with everything piecing together at the end.

I enjoyed this book even though it was predictable
This is marketed as a psychological thriller but I feel that it isn’t in this category.

I enjoyed this books more than I expected I would.

The protagonist, Holly, was abducted as a child, but then returned unharmed approximately 3 months later. She could not remember anything that happened, in luring who abducted her.

Years later, Holly is struggling to get through life. She’s approached by a detective, who asks her to help try to figure out who may be responsible for kidnappings across the country that are very similar to her own. Around the same time, Holly’s mother falls into a coma following a car accident, and Holly begins to wonder if these things are related, and if her kidnapper is still watching her.

This is a well-executed and well-paced thriller. There were plenty of twists and turns, which made for a page-turner. If you’re looking for a quick, suspenseful read, this is a great choice.

A thriller read. It was a bit predictable as to what was going on and what was happening next but that does not detract from the writing and the story as a whole
Thank you to the publishers for gifting me this book

Suspenseful and intriguing.

The story follows a woman named Autumn who wakes up one morning to find that her husband and young daughter are missing. She has no memory of the previous night, and her home is in disarray. As she tries to piece together what happened, she realizes that her family's disappearance may be connected to a dark secret from her past.

As Autumn races to find her family, she discovers that she is being followed and that someone is trying to prevent her from uncovering the truth. With the help of a detective, she begins to unravel the mystery, but the closer she gets to the truth, the more dangerous the situation becomes.

I am a sucker for kidnapping stories. This one was a little predictable but still a fantastic read! A complete page turner!

The missing child trope has been done a lot however this had a lot more to it and I found myself completely intrigued throughout as I was trying to work out what was going on. The ending was fab and I loved the build up of tension to get there

4 stars. Holly was kidnapped as a child, but has no memory of it. Now twenty years later another little girl has gone missing. Holly can help solve the case if only she can remember the details of her own abduction.
The Day I Disappeared is told in alternating points of view between Holly and the thoughts of her mother, Cecily, who’s currently in a coma. Holly had sensed her mother knew more than she’s telling about what happened twenty years ago. What is Cecily keeping from Holly?
I had so much fun unraveling this creepy who-dunnit mystery, and was completely stumped. Suspicion and danger pointed all directions. I wanted to throw cuffs on most of the characters. When I thought I had it all figured out, I didn’t, then had to start over again. And wow did I love the big plot twist at the end! It’s a good quick read I highly recommend.

Thanks to NetGalley and Lake Union Publishing for providing a free copy for review.

When Holly was 4 years old she was kidnapped and released 90days later, she has no memory of her time with her kidnapper and she was returned unharmed to the park she was taken from. A man was caught and convicted of her kidnapping and sent to jail.
Now 20 years later another girl has gone missing with the same MO, and now a detective wants to talk to Holly, could the wrong man be in jail?

Told from the dual perspectives of Holly and her mother Cecily who is currently in a coma after a car accident, we get the pieces of what happened to Holly all those years ago and the events leading up to her mothers car accident. Was it really an accident or is there something more sinister going on?

I loved how the story builds up slowly and we are treated to quite a few red herrings which I really enjoyed.

The Day I Disappeared was a fun read for me. I enjoyed the multiple perspectives from mom and daughter, especially not knowing if they were accurate retellings of the history. Unreliable narrators are not everyone's favorite but I think it adds to the mystery of the entire plot. My only critique is that it felt a tad predictable to me. Other than that, it was a solid, enjoyable read and one that I would recommend to others.

Well told and suspenseful, this novel tells the story of a missing girl and turns it on its head. Suspects are introduced and carefully eliminated and the ending of the novel provides a succinct and satisfying conclusion. Although I wasn’t 100% sold on this novel at the beginning, once it pulled me in, “The Day I Disappeared” became one heck of a page turner.

Did not finish. I just don’t think this one is for me. Couldn’t get into it. I will try another time.

Omg......... this book was amazing I flew threw the pages with Olympic speed I was hooked from the very first page. I found it full of twists and turns threw out and it kept me on the edge of my seat all the way threw  I would defiantly recommend this book if you like a good book to keep you reading threw the night hopefully you enjoy it as much as I did

Although it took me a little bit to get into this story, I absolutely devoured it once I did! There were twists and turns that kept me on my toes, and that final plot twist at the end actually made me gasp out loud. I can't believe it took me so long to read this thriller; I really enjoyed it!

CW for alcoholism, drugging, serial kidnapper/murderer, death, violence.

A huge thank you to NetGalley and Lake Union Publishing for the ARC of The Day I Disappeared by Brandi Reeds!

Great book. Highly recommend and will most defiantly read more by this author and suggest to others!

More women’s fiction than a true thriller but I liked the suspense aspect here. I’m always drawn to stories with complex mother and daughter relationships and this one was good

I love the cover of this novel and the inside. "The Day I Disappeared" is an suspenseful novel by Brandi Reeds. A page turner for sure.

This just didn’t end up being a book that interested me. When I first read the premise, I was very excited and invested, but getting into it made it clear that it just wasn’t for me. Hopefully it works for others out there!

This was a good mystery book. The story line kept my attention. I would definitely read other books by this author in the future.

This was a fun mystery, but it was very predictable. The premise is fascinating, a girl gets kidnapped from a park, only to be returned a few months later. So when the same thing happens 20 years later, who better to help than Holly?
