Overall, "Have You Seen Her" is a must-read for fans of the thriller genre, and a testament to the author's skill at crafting suspenseful, engrossing novels.

I loved this book, just as much as I’ve loved everything else I’ve read by Catherine McKenzie! I really enjoyed trying to piece together how all the characters were going to tie together in the end. The little sprinklings of other media throughout (instagram posts, newspaper articles, diary entries etc.) were super fun and something I am always a fan of. As a huge thriller reader, Have You Seen Her is one I will 100% be recommending to my reader friends.

I was so excited when I got this ARC, and binged it in one sitting this afternoon.
Sadly, this just didn't do it for me. I was far too confused with the timeline jumps, and too many characters here. I felt this was trying to do simply too much for what it could deliver.
I also noticed the author said, you cannot see if someone read your message on Instagram, which is false. I hope that gets edited out.
By the end I was more glad it was over.

Another book full of twists and turns by Catherine McKenzie!
Set in and around the Yellowstone Park area, this book is full of adventure, interesting characters, and a twist I didn't see coming. The dual timelines were slightly confusing, only because they take place so close together (within the span of a summer). If you love good mysteries, you will love this one!

Thank you, NetGalley, for the chance to review this book. This tale of how three women met propelled me to keep turning the page. It was really hard to put down. It felt like Yosemite Park was a character in the novel! I have never been, not I want to go. One thing that Catherine excels at is how each of her stories is different from the others. No spoilers,: the ending is perfectly dark!

The story starts slow and I found it a little confusing. This one wasn’t for me but I was intrigued enough to persevere to the end. The plot twists are significant. I was invested enough that I had to find out how everything fit into the story.
2.5/5 rounded up to 3/5
Thank You to NetGalley, Simon & Schuster Canada (Atria Books), and Catherine McKenzie for the opportunity to read this ARC.

Have You Seen Her by Catherine McKenzie is yet another unputdownable read from this talented and always bankable author.
Cassie is fleeing her hectic life in New York, joining the Search and Rescue team at Yosemite. It is a job with which she has a history, and a case ten years earlier continues to haunt her. Meeting up with a cast of characters including seasonal workers and rogue adventurers, Cassie's path will cross with two women in particular who will force her to confront a past from which she has desperately sought to flee.
This is a multi-layered narrative, rich in imagery and thoughtful in execution, and I devoured it in a single session. I have thoroughly enjoyed Ms McKenzie's previous work, but I will say that this is, in my opinion, her best yet. 4.5 stars
Many thanks to NetGalley and Simon & Schuster Canada for an ARC.

I received an arc of this book and didn’t know what to expect going in. I read it in one sitting and found the writing style to be engaging and the story was thought provoking. If you pay close enough attention to the details, you can figure out what’s going on. But you don’t actually know until the end and it becomes a story of perseverance, unity and control.
I enjoyed the read, the message and the themes and would pick up another book by this author.

Thank you to NetGalley and Simon and Schuster Canada for an advanced electronic copy of this book in exchange for an honest review!
Cassie is starting over. She's leaving her husband when he's at work, and trying to cover her tracks so he doesn't find her. She's going to spend the summer working on the Search And Rescue team at Yosemite - the same place she found herself in 10 years earlier, reeling from a failed rescue.
I liked the layers in this story. There's a lot going on that shapes how you perceive different characters. There are predictable moments, as well as twists. It's a well-rounded suspension novel and I didn't expect it to end the way it did!

I enjoyed reading this book a lot. It has a great balance of characters and time shifting with each chapter, keeping the reader engaged and guessing until the end. The narration switches between Anna and the missing woman, giving different perspectives and clues. This would make for a great audiobook. I would highly recommend this book for reading at a cottage or camping. It's perfect for the summer months.
