I absolutely loved this book! I found it hard to put down. I highly recommend reading it! You won’t be disappointed.
I love this duo authors and they did it again. Their writing style keeps my on the edge of my seat. I never saw it coming. Definitely a roller coaster of emotions going through this book from front to back. 100% recommend
While I enjoyed the story, I felt like every time the plot started to pick up, it would drop again. It was a solid 3.5.
Highly recommend this book if you’re into well done reads with psychological twists and turns. The author does a great job of drawing you in and you watch as Shay is manipulated by her “friends”. I was captivated by the story line and the farther into the story I got the more I didn’t want to put it down. Well worth your time!
You Are Not Alone is the first book by Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pakkannen that I have read. I will definitely be looking for more from this pair of authors.
Shay Miller is down on her luck in more ways than one when she witnesses a suicide, a woman throws herself in front of a subway train. Shay is understandably distraught and starts digging in to the woman’s (Amanda) past to try to understand why Amanda would do this. Enter the Moore sisters and their vigilante group of women. Cassandra and Jane Moore were friends of Amanda who Shay meets at the memorial service. Shay is just about at her lowest point when the sisters seem to know just how to solve all her problems. But just as Shay thinks everything is beginning to move in the right direction, everything starts falling apart.
This fast paced psychological thriller will keep turning the page and unable to put it down. Told from several points of view with quotes from Shay’s journal of random data, the twists and turns will keep you guess. Some I saw coming but many took me by surprise. Fans of psychological thrillers will not want to miss this one.
When you first begin the book, you feel you are missing information, and you are - purposely. I deduced the authors are confusing you before getting to the plot twist. All I can say is hold on. It gets so good.
This book was a page turner from the minute I started it. This is a must read that will leave you shocked at the end.
I have been a fan of these authors since their first books and You Are Not Alone definitely didn’t disappoint. A suspenseful story filled with interesting characters. I can’t wait to see what these authors write in the future. Thank you to the publisher for sending me an ARC of this book.
Anytime you see this combo of authors, it is guaranteed to be a good book. I don’t even have to read the synopsis, I just pick it up and know I will enjoy!
This book is full of twists and turns, and is highly entertaining! I definitely recommend!
I received an ARC from Netgalley in exchange for an honest review
This is fast-paced thriller of women in action - one tries to outrun the menace she don't understand, the other ones are out to catch her.
The topic of vigilante justice is very catchy (even if the authoresses might play some red herring game here with her readers) and brings out the questions of what right do we have to execute what we see as right. Planted firmly into the land of actual topic of violence against women, the novel poses these questions interestingly, including the subject of manipulation. I have very much enjoyed these aspects!
The main heroine Shay Miller is very relatable to me precisely because she is human - naive, trusting, a bit too much willing to please, a bit too much willing to supress the doubts. Yet she is also smart and courageous and when she finally see that there might be a foul play, she acts on it. With just a bit of encouragement, she has a big potential for personal growth in good.
Unfortunately, the plot logic weakens towards the end.
I would also love to see at least one nice, strong male character.
But the swiftness of the novel made a fan out of me and I plan to follow the authoresses from now on!
Super good book, Drew me right in and kept me hooked until the end. Can't wait to read more from these authors. They may turn in to an automatic one click author for me.
Thank you to Netgalley for allowing me to read a copy of this novel.
A little late in the review but wanted to get my thoughts out there on this one. This novel was a bit slow in the beginning and I ended up having to finish it on audio. Despite the slow start, I loved this book. It gave me anxiety in all the right places. The pacing could have been a little better in the beginning but it picked up and made the book worth reading. This is a dynamic duo and can't wait to read more by them.
I have loved everything from this author pair and this book is no exception.
It is fast-paced and just begs to be read. If you're looking for a thriller, I would absolutely recommend you pick this one up.
You are not Alone is a cinematic novel that tells the story of a girl Shay Miller and her obsession with sisters that she would die to be like. The story is tense and the premise interesting and. filled with twists and. turns some of which I did not figure out Overall, I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a. quick suspenseful read.
I love every thriller these authors write together and this did not disappoint! I kept turning page after page and stayed up way later than I should have reading this book!
A fast paced and gripping read! This book is filled with details that make it hard to put down, from the development of the characters to the storyline. This book does contain details of a witnessed Suicide and could possibly be a trigger to some. However I strongly recommend this book to anyone who loves a good suspense filled story.
Good not great. The story was there and the turns were good. I do think it was my reading mood that made this not great. I am usually a huge fan of their writing.
Received a digital ARC of this book via NetGalley.
This book was so good. I love everything these authors write. Definitely had some A Simple Favor vibes.
Every book by these authors has been on my top list of favorite books, but this one falls short. While the story was good, it really held no substance in the long run, although the ending was quite satisfying. I’d give this a middle of the road rating, since it was just an okay book. I’m still going to read their books in the future, as they are some of my all time favorite authors.
This was a tight psychological thriller. It surprised me in so many places, and the plot was so intriguing. 4 stars.
Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.
