There were too many secrets and lies—one of them almost got me killed.
Now, I can’t remember what happened.
All I know is, I went to sleep listening to music, worrying about my geometry test and next week’s ballet lesson. Then, I woke up in a ditch, bloodied, bruised, and missing a year of my life.
Now, nothing makes sense. I don’t even recognize myself. I’m popular. I wear nothing but black.
I’m popular. I wear nothing but black.
And I can fight.
According to an FBI agent, I’m not the only girl to go missing within the last year…but I am the only girl to come back alive. I don’t care what anyone says, I desperately need to unravel what happened to me, to try and recover the rest of the Lost Girls.
But the more I discover, the more my memories return. And as much as my new life scares me, it calls to me. Seductively. I’m the ultimate good girl gone bad.
There’s something dark and unknown that I crave. The rush of adrenaline, the thrill of applause—there’s something out there that I can’t resist and it might still get me killed.

Since I’ve been wanting to read this book for so long, it’s done.
It features Rachel who fell asleep in a ball under her grandmother’s quilt, being worried about her geometry test and the lesson in the following week. Except that she woke up a year later in a ditch, bloodied and bruised.
She doesn’t recognize herself any more, yet she is popular, she only wears black in her clothes.
She’s not the only girl who disappeared last year, but she happens to be the only one who came back. She is going out of her way to find out what happened and where the other missing girls are. But the more she investigates, the more her memories come back.
A book read in one go, so much so that I hooked on to the story, so moving at certain passages, captivating, addictive, full of suspense and twists and turns with very endearing characters. I can’t wait to read more books by this author whose pen I love so much.
This book has a darker plot than I’m used to, but without giving anything away, I don’t want to give anything away. Let’s just say it was refreshing (probably an odd word choice) that the darkness didn’t come from sexual abuse or something supernatural. It was well written and the story moved along at a good pace.
Rachel wakes up on the side of the road in a ditch filthy covered in bruises and blood and with memory lost. Rachel went missing two weeks ago but has lost a year of her life. What has she been doing for that whole year of her life? She knows the people that say they are her friends but are they really the people she hangs out with every day? Where is her best friend?
Rachel is wondering about herself as well, who is this person in her body. Why are all the clothes in her closet black? Where are all of her pink things? Who is this girl that is the leader of her group of friends? Where is that shy little girl? And what about this guy Dylan who says he is her boyfriend? She knows who Dylan is I mean she has had a crush on him since forever but is he really her boyfriend? She is a lot stronger and faster now than she use to be and she can fight. How is that possible? How did she change so much in a year? What happened to her during those two weeks she was missing?
Rachel finds out that she has not been the only one to go missing in the last year but she is the only one to return. Rachel is going to find out what happened to her during those two weeks. When she finds out about all the other missing girls she is determined to find them and bring them home as well.
Reading Rachel’s story will make you stop and think about a lot of things. Like all the different things that could happen to girls and boys that go missing every day. Lost Girls could really be someone’s life story. This could really happen to boys and girls all over the world.
When I read the summary for Lost Girls I knew I had to read it. I wanted to know what happened to Rachel during those two weeks she was missing. What I found out was something that I never expected. Lost Girls will stay with me for a very long time. I am not sure if I will ever forget Lost Girls. Every time I hear about a girl or boy missing I will think about Lost Girls.
i cant wait to read this book
