Monday's Not Coming: A Psychological Thriller by the Author of Allegedly

"Jackson’s characters and their heart-wrenching story linger long after the final page, urging readers to advocate for those who are disenfranchised and forgotten by society and the system." (Publishers Weekly, "An Anti-Racist Children's and YA Reading List")
From the critically acclaimed author of Allegedly, Tiffany D. Jackson, comes a gripping novel about the mystery of one teenage girl’s disappearance and the traumatic effects of the truth.
Monday Charles is missing, and only Claudia seems to notice. Claudia and Monday have always been inseparable—more sisters than friends. So when Monday doesn’t turn up for the first day of school, Claudia’s worried.
When she doesn’t show for the second day, or second week, Claudia knows that something is wrong. Monday wouldn’t just leave her to endure tests and bullies alone. Not after last year’s rumors and not with her grades on the line. Now Claudia needs her best—and only—friend more than ever. But Monday’s mother refuses to give Claudia a straight answer, and Monday’s sister April is even less help.
As Claudia digs deeper into her friend’s disappearance, she discovers that no one seems to remember the last time they saw Monday. How can a teenage girl just vanish without anyone noticing that she’s gone?

Readers say *Monday’s Not Coming* is a gripping psychological thriller with powerful themes of friendship, trauma, and systemic injustice. Tiffany D. ...
This book was quite an experience. It was written very uniquely and the narrator did an amazing job differentiating between accents and voices. The only reason I can't give this 5 stars is because the ending left me disappointed. As the reader, you believe the story you're being told. And by the end, the story flips and I was hoping it wouldn't.
Debut novel? Wow! Tiffany Jackson does an amazing job with this story. The story snatched me in and never let go. The ending isn't what I expected but neither are things in our everyday lives. My book club loved this book and most finished in one day. Tiffany Jackson will always have me as a fan.
A triggering read, but I appreciated the author shedding light on how black women and children go missing and no one bats an eye until it's too late.
