First of I would like to thank NetGalley for gifting me an advance copy of this book to read and review. The second collaboration by the authors of The Wife Between Us have done it again. This book while not a follow up to their previous one does follow similar patterns. What happens when you first perpetuate a lie? Jess a struggling make-up artist begins a lie that affects her family, her life and her livelihood. In dire need of money she lies her way into a morality study meant for one of her clients. There she becomes subject 52 and introduces her to a pair of Doctors who may not have her best interest in mind. From there we root her on as she tries to disengage and go back to her life. I really enjoyed this book from start to finish and would recommend it for those who like to unravel mysteries.

I can’t even claim that this book is twisted. It’s so much more than that! It’s an intense and gripping thriller that will make you ask yourself who is telling the truth, who to trust?

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

“An Anonymous Girl” is Gripping, Can’t-Put-Down Suspense

Published on January 14, 2019 in Fiction by Joanna Poncavage

Are you a moral person? Is telling a lie ever acceptable? What would you do for money to help someone you love?

An Anonymous Girl (St. Martin’s Press), the second suspense novel from the writing team of Sarah Pekkanen and Greer Hendricks, is the story of a young New York make-up artist who lies her way into a psychological study on ethics and morality. What could go wrong?


Jessica Farris needs money for her family, and the study promises “generous compensation.” Her father has lost his job, and her sister, who has special needs, would suffer if the family has to move.

The study is being conducted by a beautiful, mysterious psychiatrist, Dr. Lydia Shields, and soon Jessica is doing more than answering questions like “Can you tell a lie without feeling guilt?” Dr. Shields, offering Jessica more and more money, sends her into real-life situations. She is to go to a museum and meet a man. She is to exchange phone numbers, and entice him to meet again.

But fate intervenes, and unforeseen events turn a scientific experiment into a tense game of secrets and ulterior motives. Soon, what began for Jessica as an attempt to help her family becomes a dangerous game she can’t escape.

It’s a luscious jigsaw puzzle of a book, with alternating chapters from Jessica’s and Lydia’s points of view. One of them is lying, at least to herself. Deep into its pages, it’s impossible to know who is the manipulator, who might end up dead. A delicious passage: “We all have reasons for our judgments, even if those reasons are so deeply buried we don’t recognize them ourselves.”

Do not be alarmed if, while reading this book, you feel the need to apply burgundy nail polish. Details of glamorous clothes, make-up tips, and luxurious fashion, all in a fast-moving city offer up an authentic New York experience. And the men (with some notable exceptions) are handsome, well-dressed and they can cook!

Sarah Pekkanen is the author of seven previous novels (The Best of Us, The Perfect Neighbors). Greer Hendricks was once Pekkanen’s editor at Simon & Schuster. Their first title, The Wife Between Us, jumped to bestseller lists in two weeks. And even before they finished writing The Wife Between Us, the authors had a movie deal with Steven Spielberg’s Amblin Partners, the Hollywood team that put The Girl on the Train on the screen. Lightning has struck twice, and An Anonymous Girl has been optioned for a television series by eOne. Catch it on the page before it comes to the screen.

An Anonymous Girl is now available to purchase.

Last November I read The Last Mrs Parrish which is a thriller written by two female authors (sisters, in that case). An Anonymous Girl too is a collaboration of two female writers, Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen. It’s not a new phenomenon for writers to team up in what is otherwise a solitary occupation but, whilst reading, I couldn’t help but notice the similarities between the two books.

Firstly, there’s the hype around both books. I don’t think either book’s sales will slow down due to my reviews. An Anonymous Girl is Hendricks/Pekkanen’s second outing and they’re riding the wave of success from their first book, The Wife Between Us, which proved to be a bit of a hit. (I haven’t read The Wife Between Us but, I must admit, its blurb has a plot which sounds very much like An Anonymous Girl’s. The Wife Between Us’s cover too, is almost identical to this new book, so the publishers are certainly banking on familiarity winning over readers.)

The Last Mrs Parrish and An Anonymous Girl both have alternating chapters told from the two (female) lead characters’ point of views. And clearly, in both books, one of the leads is psychotic.

In Anonymous Girl, I thought the second point of view was a little unnecessary. I think the entire book could have been told from the heroine’s, Jessica, point of view and still made sense and had the same level of tension. Not that I felt Hendricks/Pekkanen’s style was as disjointed as the Constantine sisters’ effort. There was no obvious change of author. But I think it would have just been more creepy if I, like Jess, had no idea what was going on in the other character’s head.

The other similarity is that both thrillers feature twisted love triangles. One of the women’s husband in both books has a relationship with the other woman. And in both books, the reader is unsure whether or not the husband is as innocent as he claims.

My point to this ramble, I guess, is that An Anonymous Girl is nothing original, with its plot or otherwise. The first quarter of the book, especially, was like a teenage straight-to-DVD movie and made me think New Adults were the intended audience.

I did warm to the book around the 40% mark though. I started to appreciate the writers’ gift for tense action scenes. I also started to wonder at just who Jess could trust and how she was going to outwit, and outlive, the other characters.

As such, I flew through the last part of the book. And, I know how difficult book endings can be but, for me, this one fell a little flat.

I’ve given the book 3 ½ out of 5 but as I said, I’m sure it will still prove to be popular no matter what my review.

An Anonymous Girl by Greer Hendricks & Sarah Pekkanen

4 stars

“We all have reasons for our actions. Even if we hide the reason from those who think they know us best. Even if the reasons are so deeply buried we can’t recognize them ourselves.”

An Anonymous Girl follows Jessica Farris, a young freelance beauty makeup artist working in New York and struggling to make a living and keep secrets. One unlikely job opportunity arises when a girl she is working on for a job mentions her opportunity to make money for a survey at her university. Jessica takes this time to pose as her and enter the study. The study focuses on morality and ethics. At its core, the questions make Jessica feel exposed, but they also strike something within her—an obsession and an awareness that she didn’t have before. Dr. Shields is the woman behind the survey and she has taken an interest in Jessica. As Jessica begins to work for Dr. Shields outside of survey, the questions of morality go to questioning tasks that make Jessica feel used and degraded. Dr. Shields’ manipulative schemes have caught Jessica into a web and she has to understand how to outwit the spider before she finds herself eaten. I was so excited for this book. I had heard great things about this writing pair’s debut thriller and I couldn’t believe that the publisher was inviting me to read this novel. An Anonymous Girl is a fun thriller. It starts out incredibly strong and is steeped in intrigue as we walk through Jessica taking a morality survey as well as a second person POV that observes her and is very unsettling. The stakes are high at the beginning of this novel and they made me excited to turn the page. I had to know where this novel was going and what was going to happen next. I never lost that feeling throughout the novel. This is a page turner for sure. However, the first half of this novel feels different from the last half. I thought this was going to be a 5-star thriller based off of the first handful of chapters, but it’s not. Somewhere amidst all the revelations the storyline’s level of intrigue shifts from moral to drama. I love a good drama, so I’m not complaining, but I think many readers may feel a bit bereft and underwhelmed at where the story goes. I really enjoyed the story that Hendricks and Pekkanen set up. It was unputdownable and had an air of moral twistedness that appeals to my weird reading taste.


Whimsical Writing Scale: 4.25

“The project you have become engaged in is about to evolve from an academic exercise into a real-life exploration on morality and ethics, you are told.”

The main female character is Jessica. Jessica is an odd character. She seems really boring and normal at first and then all of a sudden, the morality survey reveals her to be a multi-layered human being who sleeps with men all the time, feels guilt over her sister with a traumatic brain disorder, and is supporting her sister’s bills without the knowledge of her family. She has a lot to offer as a thriller heroine and I really enjoyed following. I will admit that the longer I followed her the more annoying she became. A lot of her decisions towards the end were just plain dumb. She is not the best character, but I did enjoy following her and she made the story interesting.


Kick-Butt Heroine Scale: 4

The Villain- There are two potential villains here and it’s really a game of which one is eviler and has done more harm and manipulation. There is Dr. Shields and her husband, Thomas. Dr. Shields controls the study and Jessica. She is a well-inept manipulator and is quite cold. Her level of morality is skewed and definitely unsettling. Thomas is just as skewed, but is less of a manipulator and has intentions that the reader has to decipher. Are his intentions as good as he makes them out to be or is he a philander looking to manipulate all women? The plot is fast-paced, but I wanted more from this dynamic. I wasn’t unsatisfied, but the outcome felt cheap and kind of disgusting (I don’t mean Karin Slaughter disgusting. I mean just plain unethical and unfair to those who may have experienced suicide
.)


Villain Scale: 3.75

There aren’t a whole lot of characters in this thriller. It’s a very concise and claustrophobic cast. Jessica starts up a relationship with a chef and that was kind of fascinating, but didn’t really do anything for me and felt kind of silly as the story progressed. I did like Jessica’s female friendships and I wish that they would’ve been showcased more. Jessica became isolated very quickly and even after she saw everything unraveling, she stayed in solitude to work things out which seems dangerous and dumb. I did like her dynamic with her family a lot, but still I feel like something was missing. None of the side cast really stands on their own or is memorable. I really did like seeing the inclusion of traumatic injury into the story because it is rarely touched upon in media but does happen and I thought it was handled pretty well.


Character Scale: 3.5

Overall, An Anonymous Girl is a fun psychological thriller that left me on the edge of my seat and incited a desire to turn the page at rapid pace. I flew through this one and I think a strong-suit of the story is the pacing. It doesn’t lag severely and keeps a pretty even tone throughout even with the awkward transition between the story as it tries to become more cohesive. I think that this will be a hit with fans of the thriller genre; especially those who like morality studies and affair drama.


Plotastic Scale: 4.25

Cover Thoughts: I like the cover well-enough for a thriller. It isn’t amazing by any means.

Thank you, Netgalley and St. Martin’s Press, for providing me with a copy of this novel in exchange for an honest review.

Jessica is a makeup artist in New York, doing her best to make money to help her family with their financial struggle since her little sister requires medical care (which is one of the reason this whole crazy rides starts) and by taking the spot of one her clients (in not a very ethical way) she enters to a paid ethic and morality case study. Would she ever regret doing so?

She is named Subject 52 and she’s subjected to a number of questions about morality, honesty, lies, etc and little she knows that she is being observed by Dr. Shields, who is in charge of the study, and who becomes intrigues by her every answer she gives, she chose her as her case study and both lives will collide in a delicious explosion that is this book. I can’t say more because it would take away the surprise factor but prepare yourself for a ride because you would be pulled into the chaos of these two women one who is obsess with morality and one who doesn’t mind throwing it away when is need it.

A very fast-paced and fully entertaining read with a smart and original plot. I only had a minor problem with the book, and it was the ending, after so many twists and turns I expected to end in high pace which is does but I expected a little more.
It would make you question, does end justify the means? Would you lie knowing that truth could hurt the other person deeply?
This is my first novel I read from the authors, I do own their first book but didn’t have the opportunity to get around it, but I was pulled into this blurb about this one and couldn’t help myself to read it.

I received a digital ARC of this book from St. Martin's Press through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

"Could you tell a lie without feeling guilt? Have you ever deeply hurt someone you care about? Should a punishment always fit the crime?" These are questions asked by Dr. Shields when Jessica Farris signs up for a psychology study about ethics and morality. She is being paid for her answers and becomes Subject 52. As the questions get more and more intense and invasive, Jessica's paranoia grows.

I found this book to be very unique, intriguing and suspenseful. The plot rolls out slowly but keeps the pages turning. The book is well-written and the characters seem like real people. The point of view alternates between Jessica and Dr. Shields. Lots of twists and turns lead this psychological thriller to a very surprise ending. I'm looking forward to reading Hendricks/Pekkanen's first book, The Wife Between Us, as I really enjoyed this one. I would highly recommend this book to those who love to read about obsession and power.

I would like to thank NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for a copy of this book for an honest review.

“An Anonymous Girl” by Greer Hendricks, Sarah Pekkanen is a psychological thriller that follows Jessica Farris, a make-up artist Readers immediately get to know Jessica. She is dedicated and harried. She wants to be organized, and is driven by rules and more rules. Most of all, she is in desperate need of money. She stumbles upon an opportunity to make quick money by participating in a research project.
“Seeking women aged 18 to 32 to participate in a study on ethics and morality conducted by a preeminent NYC psychiatrist. Generous compensation. Anonymity guaranteed. Call for more details.”
Thus, Jessica’s unusual and frightening journey begins. In a casual, conversation-style first-person narrative, she talks to friends; she talks to herself; and she talks to readers. She shares her past, her present, her regrets, her dreams, her guilt, and her fears. She finds that an impulsive decision can change the course of one’s life. Many things that were ordinary in the past are somehow no longer run of the mill activities and people; now that she in in the survey group, now that she is “Subject 52.”
The study begins as a computer-driven question and answer session about ethics and morality as described. Of course, Jessica has already lied to get into this study, so her situation is compromised at the start. Money is money, but how far will she go to get that money? Lies pile up one on top of the other, and the study of “ethics and morality” mutates into something very different and very sinister.
The construction of the narrative itself contributes to the menacing tone of impending doom. The account switches from Jessica’s first person present tense narrative to another narrative, this one a second person present tense as if the narrator is speaking directly to Jessica.
“You are the only person here. This venue has been selected because there is little to distract you, facilitating your ability to concentrate on the task ahead.”
The tone throughout is tense and foreboding. Without giving away information, this book filled with deception, treachery, and subterfuge. The plot is complex and develops over time, one puzzle piece at time. And, like a puzzle, the pieces eventually fall into place but not without missteps, variations, and unexpected turns.
I received a copy of “An Anonymous Girl” from Greer Hendricks, Sarah Pekkanen, St Martin’s Press, and NetGalley. It is the quintessential psychological thriller, and one that readers will find hard to put down.

A fast, twisty read... Kudos to the writing duo of Hendricks/Pekannen for pulling off a thriller that kept me turning pages and neglecting the rest of my life until I knew how it would turn out. (And that epilogue! Morality study, indeed.)

So the moment I saw Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen were coming out with a new book I was 100% sold. I ended up loving The Wife Between Us. So I couldn't wait to see what they had in store. Overall I ended up enjoying the book.

I have to say right away I was super interested in the idea of these book. It's about this girl who signs up for this psychological study because she's in need of the cash. It turns out to end up being a lot more invasive then she thought. As the study continues on it turns into a lot more and secrets that were meant to stay quiet become exposed. So right away I found the concept to be super interesting. I haven't read any thrillers revolving around a psychology study, so that was really enjoyable to read about.

I also really enjoyed the different perspectives. I always enjoy reading from the perspectives of the different characters. It's always fun knowing more than the other character or at least you think you know since this book has unreliable narrators. So you don't really know what's true and what's not. I just always find it interesting being inside more than one characters head.

Overall I enjoyed this book. I thought it was suspenseful and kept me interested. I just didn't find it very shocking so I was a little disappointed it that. I still am so happy I was able to read this early. This was one of my most anticipated reads of 2019. Greer and Sarah are such an amazing writing duo. They work so well together. I am so excited to see what they come out with next.

*Thank you so much for Netgalley for giving me this book for free in exchange for my honest opinions.*

What a ride An Anonymous Girl by Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen has been. There is nothing quite as galvanizing as a well-drawn anti-hero. Jessica Farris, a freelance makeup artist, signs herself up for a psychology study being held at a local college because she needs the money offered. The study takes place in an empty room with only a laptop submitting the questionnaire. Jessica knows that a Dr. Shields is in charge of this study but has not met the professor. Soon Jessica is contacted to continue a more intense psychological evaluation while being well-paid. She agrees and soon starts thinking that all is not well. The rest you must read for yourself. Nothing will be as it seems. The story is fascinating and keeps up the tension till the last page. Highly recommended for anyone who enjoys unpredictable psychological thrillers. Thank you to St. Martin's Press, NetGalley and the authors for the e-ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Anonymous Girl is a psychological thriller that runs in the same vein as Gone Girl. If you were a fan of that you should also like this. The storyline follows Jessica, a struggling makeup artist trying to make a living in New York City. Jessica has a full plate between trying to make ends meet, and send money home to support her younger sister who was left mentally disabled after a childhood brain injury. One day when Jessica is out on an appt with a makeup client, she over hears one of the girls talking about a a psychological test at the college that is supposed to pay 500 dollars for a single session. On a whim, she decides to take the place of the student, and insert herself into the study, figuring it would be an easy 500 dollars.

The study, Jessica is told, regards morals and ethics. The study is conducted by Dr. Shields. After the first set of questions Dr. Shields asks her to come in for further sessions, for which she will be more than adequately compensated. Desperate for the money, Jessica agrees to commit to more sessions. Eventually she starts seeing Dr. Shields in person. It is then that she discovers that Dr. Shields is a female therapist. Lydia Shields is intoxicatingly beautiful, and seems to be perfect in every way. Despite some misgivings about tasks that Dr. Shields asks Jessica to complete, she continues to go along with the program Dr. Shields has assigned believing that the increasingly strange tasks are necessary to complete the study. The increasingly large financial payments don’t hurt either. It does; however, soon become apparent that the study Jessica is involved in is not all that it seems to be, and Dr. Lydia Shields is so much more than an innocent therapist exploring moral and ethical situations. Jessica finds herself in a very sticky situation where the more she struggles and tries to leave the study, the deeper she becomes entangled. Dr. shields is the ultimate villain. She comes off as both incredibly evil, but like all humans innately flawed. The study becomes a wild game of cat and mouse, with both Jessica and Dr. Shields trying to anticipate each other’s moves and outsmart each other. It’s a pretty wild story and was a lot of fun to read.

4 stars to this fascinating and clever thriller. If you like a good cat and mouse game then this is for you!

Jess is a 28 year old makeup artist living in the big city. She needs money. She has obligations. Some of her own, but some are of a secretive nature. Working for a cosmetic agency doing makeup for women who are going out or for an event doesn't pay much. While at an appt she overhears about an opportunity to participate in a morality study that pays pretty good money. She decides it is worth the risk to show up in place of the woman who will not be going.

While all about the study seems harmless and innocent at first, she is chosen by Dr. Shields, the author of the study, to go further than others in the study and receive additional money if she is willing to add more time and tasks of a deeply personal nature.

Jessica accepts the offer and things go to places she never could have imagined. She was she wrong to get this involved? To go to places set by Dr. Shields and ask men for their phone number? To lure married men into a set up for a potential affair?

Jessica has a secret. Dr. Shields knows it. What will she do to protect it?

Many thanks to NetGalley and St Martin's Press for a digital ARC to read in exchange for a review. I highly recommend this for all who enjoy good suspense and psychological thrillers. What a great read!

This is the second book I’ve read by the writing duo Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen. I really, really liked it! I do love a good Psychological suspense book.

The story was so different/unique from anything I’ve read before. The beginning sucked me right in as it started off with our main character Jessica, who’s a make-up artist in New York City. Jessica does something a little unethical to get into a university psychology study on morality and ethics, and it takes off from there. This one caught my attention right away and kept getting more and more complex as the story unfolded. Just when you think who did what, you are lead in a new direction. The characters were all dysfunctional. Jessica’s character made me want to shake her several times, not to mention Dr. Shields, who was on her own level. Very interesting story. Great writing… I’m thinking two writers create a story more complex and unique.

I Highly recommend An Anonymous Girl to anyone who enjoys a good psychological suspense book. I read this book, and purchased the audible version so when I couldn't read, I could listen to it being read to me. I recommend both versions.

*A very special thank you to St. Martin’s Press via NetGalley for the advanced readers copy in exchange for an honest review* I also purchased my own audible.com version*

Not usually my genre. Have to say though, that although a little unbelievable, I found it very enjoyable.

Having read and loved THE WIFE BETWEEN US by Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen I anxiously began AN ANONYMOUS GIRL. I am happy to say I am hooked and will read anything these authors offer, A compelling story line that keeps you reading even when you know you should stop and rejoin real life.

Jessica is a makeup artist in New York City, through not completely honest means Jessica joins an ethic study for the money it offers.

Jessica is Subject 52, Dr. Shields is running the study and she is completely intrigued by Jessica, she believes she is exactly what she is looking for.

There are many questions, questions of ethics and mostly the question of what does Dr. Shields want from Jessica. Any time one of my questions was answered I was immediately presented with another.

A great read, a fresh story, I will recommend this book to everyone I know.

This book was a wild ride!
I requested this book on the description alone as I was unfamiliar with the authors.
This books hooked me from the first page and it didn’t let go.
I loved this book so much, it was such an interesting concept for a book and the authors really pulled it off! Smart writing, coupled with a really unique story was a recipe for success.
I recommend this book and I can’t wait to see what these authors come up with next!!

I loved this thriller. I would actually give it 4.5 stars, but I rounded up. I read so many books that I am finding it is hard for me to find books now that can grab my attention early on enough to keep me anxious to pick it up again and not put it down. An Anonymous Girl did that well. While I didn't think there were any shocking twists, the little surprises kept coming at me at a great pace. There was not the stereotypical victim who misses all the obvious signs of what is happening to them. Jess and Dr. Shields were worthy adversaries. The theme of the novel was unique and interesting: Each person has her own unique code of ethics....even if she is not aware of it. In my opinion, this second effort by Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen is even better than their first, The Wife Between Us. I can't wait to see what they come up with next.

A great psychological thriller about a young woman who joins an academic study and soon gets in way over her head. Some of the twists weren’t that surprising, but my interest was peaked. I didn’t know how or if the main character would get out of this situation. Overall, I really enjoyed this book.

If you loved “The Wife Between Us,” then you will surely enjoy “An Anonymous Girl,” the new standalone novel from dynamic writing duo Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen. Described as “a deliciously twisty new thriller about a girl lying to know the truth,” the book holds your attention from the first page to the last.

And, if you choose to listen to the unabridged audiobook, the narration by Barrie Kreinik and Julia Whelan will surely captivate you.

Full disclosure: I read the book when I received the ARC early on, but I decided to wait for the release of the audiobook before I wrote a review. With the book written from two points of view, I needed to “hear” the voices of Jess and Lidia. And, the audiobook like the written one did not disappoint.

So, where do I begin, or perhaps the question is how do I begin to write a spoiler-free review of this mystery/thriller? I can say that it is set in New York City and touches its artistic world. The book shows the struggles of how young people make it there, which according to an old song is the benchmark of “making it anywhere” if you succeed in the Big Apple.

“An Anonymous Girl” is also about familial love and romantic love; it is about love between siblings and the camaraderie of friends, the real-life friend not the BFF from social media. It also delves into the anonymity that a city of 8.5 million people brings.

We have two women protagonists - Jessica Farris, a struggling make-up artist from a middle-class family and Dr. Lidia Shields – an author, a professor and practicing psychiatrist who happened to be born with a silver spoon. How they met was very unorthodox; their interaction with each other can be deadly!

Then, I must stop here. If I say something more, spoilers might creep in. Let me just say that “An Anonymous Girl” is a must-read and/or a must-listen. It’s still early in the year so I will already say that if you have not picked up any books for 2019, then this is should be the first one. If you have started your reading list, then please put “An Anonymous Girl” on top of your list.

“An Anonymous Girl” is Rated T for Teens. Parental guidance is strongly advised.
