Review: Shocking conclusion you will never see coming - The Girl Who Was Taken is a story of two girls being kidnapped at a senior high school party at the lake. In present time, one of the girls’ sisters has become a forensic pathologist. After performing an autopsy on someone from her sister’s past, she begins looking into the unsolved disappearance. The story moves back and forth between the past and the present , unraveling the events from before the kidnapping until the present day. It was a true mystery for me, an avid suspense/thriller reader. I can usually guess the ending beforehand, but with all its twist and turns it kept me guessing until the shocking end.
Review: Captivating - Fast pace, short chapters, intriguing and captivating story. Wish it would be more about the actual kidnapping then the events after but overall a great book , can’t rated it 5 stars because it was at times so long and less about the abduction but totally recommend it. 8/10

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Charlie Donlea could write the phonebook and I'd read it
*by K***N on January 22, 2026*

Hands down, Charlie Donlea is my favorite mystery writer, and The Girl Who Was Taken is a perfect example of why. This book pulled me in immediately and kept the tension high the entire time. The pacing is sharp, the stakes are clear, and every chapter makes it very difficult to stop “just one more” from turning into five. Twists? Plenty. Suspense? Relentless. That creeping feeling that you should absolutely go to sleep but cannot because you need one more chapter? Constant. Donlea has a talent for pacing that should honestly be studied. Every reveal feels earned, every character keeps you guessing, and just when you think you’ve figured it out, the book politely proves you wrong. I flew through this and immediately wanted to reread it just to admire how skillfully I was misled. If you love psychological thrillers that are smart, tense, and impossible to put down, this is a must-read. Five stars. Cancel your plans. Trust Charlie Donlea. 📚🔍
