I am trying to formulate in my head what to type. To try and give a review of this book without giving too many hints so that I don't take away the shock and awe experience to future readers of this book...
I will say that I loved the previous novel, An Anonymous Girl and was excited to read the latest from this author duo. These writing partners have a wonderful way of creating dark, twisty, deceptive mind games with readers. A way of telling a story while keeping the reader on high alert. I really did love whizzing through the chapters of this latest story.
Shay, a main character, is driven in life by numbers and statistics. Numbers never lie, they are black and white, pure and true. The fact that she has such OCD about numbers and stats to the point of constantly writing them down in her journal made a wonderful lead character in this mass chaos surrounding her.
The sisters, who are the antagonists, were a nasty, mean and clever duo. There was a mean girl aspect to them and the friends they kept close. So very clever, but so very devious. Their domineering characteristics clashing with Shay's naivety made for such a compelling read.
"You Are Not Alone" is due to be released here in the US on March 3, 2020. Pre-order this now to add to your list of spring thrillers!
I am so thankful to Netgalley and St. Martin's Press for allowing me the eARC to read and give my honest review. It was a 4 star read for me!
Happy Reading!
