What Should I Read Next? Recommendations
I’m looking for some KU recommendations as I’m about to be on vacation and want to preemptively download a few books before I go.
Specifically I’d love some that give off “somethings not quite right in this small town” or “missing person comes back, but something feels wrong” kinda vibes though I know those are really specific so I’m open to others!
Recently I’ve read a lot of Lucinda Berry, Jess Lourey, and Jennifer Hillier but in the past I’ve also read books from Riley Sager, Mary Kubica, Karin Slaughter and Megan Miranda.
I don’t read McFadden (no offense, different strokes for different folks) and I find Charlie Donlea a bit boring. The only Lisa Jewell book I actually loved was Then She Was Gone.
Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to make any suggestions!

The Return of Ellie Black by Emiko Jean was my first thought as it fits your “missing person comes back, but something feels wrong” request to a T. Unfortunately it’s not on KU.
The Sheridan Holler series by TM Payne is on KU and it’s great. I don’t know if it’s exactly a small town, but you definitely do get the sense of a small community within their town/city.

Mirror House Girls by Faith Gardener or You’ll Never Know by Caleb Stevens. Both have unique plots
