 4.5 Stars


"It should have been me...."  


Gabie never knew Kayla very well.  She was just a girl she worked with at Pete's Pizza - a pretty popular girl who seemed to have everything going for her - until the night she disappeared.  He asked for Gabie to make the pizza delivery.  Gabie, though, had the night off.  Kayla had taken her place.  When Kayla left work to deliver the pizza to the unknown address, she never comes back.  They find her car abandoned, the pizza box inside, and traces of Kayla's blood.

Kayla's family was desperate for answers.  They hired a psychic for answers.  The psychic tells the family Kayla was brutally attacked and is no longer alive.  Gabie knew better.

She sees Kayla calling out to her - asking for her help.  Gabie knew she was still alive, and had she worked that night, Gabie would be the one missing - not Kayla.  The tragedy has drawn Gabie closer to her co-worker Drew.  Together, they are determined to find Kayla and to rescue her.   

 The tragedy has drawn Gabie closer to her co-worker Drew. Together, they are determined to find the madman and rescue Kayla - no matter what danger they could face themselves.

  3. The Night She Disappeared is a very great book that you should read. It has dramatic irony where you know what is going on with Kayla ; who is missing when the characters don't. There is mystery, romance, and action. The man who took Kayla wanted another girl what will he do to get the one he really wants?

  24. "The Night She Disappeared" is about a girl who works at a Pizza Shoppe, whose name is Kayla, and ends up getting kidnapped by this guy who has a "plan" for her. The girl who was supposed to get kidnapped was Gabi, but she was not working that night. Gabi feels like the entire ordeal is all her fault simply because she was supposed to work that night, but called out. Gabi gets her friend Drew involed, because he also worked there that night, and they go on a quest to find out what really happened to Kayla. They find out that Kayla is being held in this guys basement, and they try to go into his house to save her. The guy ends up being shot, but they save Kayla. The book teaches a great lesson about who to trust and who not to trust, and even though some things seem impossible, never give up instantly.

  26. "The Night She Disapeard" is a book full of detail and suspence. It's about a girl named Kayla who gets kidnapped on the way to deliver a pizza. The original plan of the kidnapper was to kidnap Gabi one of Kayla's coworkers. Gabi doesn't know this untill later in the book. But while this is going on Gabi and Drew, also one of Kayla's coworkers, is developing feelings for one another. So this book is not just a mysterious book it also has suspence, and love in it as well.

Gabbie was a tenage girl who was delivering pizzas to this guy but this guy asked for kayla gabbies friend to deliver the pizzas! gabby then finds herself in a life challenging road. The car she was driving was recked and a rock with gabbies blood was found on it! Kaylas fight to find her friend is amazing, although everybody thinks gabbie is dead kayla knows shes still alive!

  31. The Night She Disappeared was a great book to me. It left me wondering what was going to happen next. Its about a girl named Kayla who was working at a pizza place on night, when she got a call for a delivery order. The weired thing was the caller asked if Gabbie, another employ at the pizza place could deliver his pizza. A clue comes in saying something about Kayla's disaperence. Drew another one of Kayla's friend, and Gabbie will not stop until they find Kayla. Will they find her, is Kayla ok, who would do this, why didnt the go find Gabbie insted of taking Kayla? These questions went through my mind the whole time i was reading this book, you might think some of the same questions if you read this wonderful book. I enjoyed the book and think you will to. Want to know what happens in the end? Well,..........................GOOD READ THE BOOK TO FIND OUT!
