A review by happiestwhenreading
The Rachel Incident by Caroline O'Donoghue

5.0

This book came onto my radar when so many book reviewers had it on their Halfway Top 10 Lists. I put it on hold on my Libby app and patiently waited for my turn...

...and it was WORTH THE WAIT!

I loved the characters, I loved the angst, I loved the conclusion. Everything about this worked for me!

I was in awe of how O'Donoghue captured those early twenty's years...where you've just moved out of your family home for the first time and you're not quite sure who you are yet. You're figuring out college and first jobs, living with wreckless abandon and making really dumb decisions. You live on an island with your best friend and the ups and downs of life keep coming at you. O'Donoghue captured all of this so well!

You'll feel all the emotions when you read this one. It will probably be one of my top books of the year!
