ABOUT THE REAPPEARANCE OF RACHEL PRICE
#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • From the author of the multimillion-copy bestselling A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder series and Five Survive comes a gripping mystery thriller following one teen’s search for the truth about her mother’s shocking disappearance-and even more shocking reappearance-during the filming of a true crime documentary.
Lights. Camera. Lies.
Eighteen-year-old Bel has lived her whole life in the shadow of her mom’s mysterious disappearance. Sixteen years ago, Rachel Price vanished and young Bel was the only witness, but she has no memory of it. Rachel is gone, long presumed dead, and Bel wishes everyone would just move on.
But the case is dredged up from the past when the Price family agrees to a true crime documentary. Bel can’t wait for filming to end, for life to go back to normal. And then the impossible happens. Rachel Price reappears, and life will never be normal again.
Rachel has an unbelievable story about what happened to her. Unbelievable, because Bel isn’t sure it’s real. If Rachel is lying, then where has she been all this time? And-could she be dangerous? With the cameras still rolling, Bel must uncover the truth about her mother, and find out why Rachel Price really came back from the dead . . .
From world-renowned author Holly Jackson comes a mind-blowing masterpiece about one girl’s search for the truth, and the terror in finding out who your family really is.

    The United States has Native American Roots. They were here 20,000 years before Christopher Columbus. North America,South America and Central America were full of Native Americans at one time. The British and zFrench built a nation ( the US) over top of Tribal America. Africans sold their own people. I think the Portugese took people to Brazil. They traded guns and ammunition for Africans in tbe 1500's. This was done in Angola and Congo.

    One time I was out driving my friends to there cabin deep in central Minnesota and we drove by this old church that looked as if it had been abandoned for a very long time it was completely run down and I thought hmm that’s creepy but on the ride home (and keep in mind this is at 3am almost) there was a street light right in front of it which had not been on before when we drove by at midnight but it was very strange because the light was blue and it gave off very eerie vibes and I told my girlfriend to step on it I didn’t wanna end up in horror movie scenario and as we drove past the church there was an old run down car there that wasn’t when we first drove by I didn’t wanna think about what potential horrors could have been going on inside but then again it could have been completely innocent however I doubt that.

    I feel like he did the Hydra dirty because he didn't even acknowledge that it's a specific creature like the rest, almost like he didn't even know where it was from. It was the Hydra from the classic animated Hercules movie and it was pretty good for its day, deserved at least an A for being accurate and savagely portrayed and it has UNLIMITED HEADS not only 3, its a hydra. Maybe it should not have been included because it's not a dragon at all (no wings, two legs), but either way it got a bad rap here from someone who shoulda known better :( Also Poke-discrimination what he did to my boy Dragonite (unless he knows it's shiny color and that's why, I could forgive that call. Ugly Harris Teeter lookin' ***** shiny IMO).

    The fact that this woman satow glamourizes a world which was aimed at destroying people's free will and enslaving them and eventually sacrificing them at the altar of capitalism tells me everything i need to know about her, but then again, the name is satow and she was named by the NY times so.... you know, the same people who think that was is going on in that little state thing south of lebanon is ok.

    @13:50 Haters who keep grilling him about his next book, listen to the man. He's trying his best but the man is tired and over-stretched. I bet he never thought he'd be co-writing TV shows before he finished the series. Give the man a break. If he doesn't get to finish the series you just gotta live with that. And all your hate towards him was for nothing.
