The Night She Disappeared
The Night She Disappeared
by April Henry
Kayla is the girl next door who works at the local pizza place. She's liked by her friends and co-workers, perpetually perky and happily becomes a friend.
When she makes a delivery and never returns, Drew, a co-worker, must make the call to 911. The next day at school he asks Gabie, another co-worker, if she's heard from Kayla. And then must explain what happened...and the worst thought of all...the person who placed the order asked for Gabie originally.
Each chapter is written from the main characters perspective, lending to the suspense and action throughout the book. **Spoiler**What I found even more intriguing was Kayla's voice and the kidnappers point of view.** There is no romanticism in the kidnapping and the potential of problems that arise, but it is not overly graphic either. Though it is an upsetting topic, it is a fairly easy read for older readers. It could be used for reluctant readers. I would recommend for middle school-high school.
As someone who used to deliver pizzas once-upon-a-time and now a mother, I found the book disturbing but ultimately that is a compliment to the realness of the story. The book is action packed and very readable.
Enjoy!
