Thank you Libro.fm, Alice Feeney, Netgalley & Macmillan.audio for gifting me a copy of this audiobook.

I’m going to be honest, when I first pressed play and heard the first narrator I instantly though “there’s no way I can listen to this raspy voice”. Come to find out, that was the voice of the killer and it actually grew on me!

This story is told from three distinct POVs, His, Hera, and the Killers. Each POV had its own distinct voice, which I love since it helps you stay tuned into the story and who’s talking. This is a fast paced story that takes place over just a few days. The author does a fabulous job of balancing the pace with the detail, allowing the full story to come to life without feeling rushed or overly complicated.

The mystery of this story was spot on. I hate when I read a book and can guess the killer from the very beginning, His & Hers though kept me guessing until the very last chapter. Just when I thought I knew who it was, until the story revealed that it wasn’t true. The killers POV added an extra layer to the mystery that I absolutely enjoyed!

Overall, I would recommend this book in a hot minute to anyone that wants an engaging mystery with a bit of suspense.

I really enjoyed it for the most part but the final plot twist was kind of a deal breaker for me. It came out of left field and made no sense.

Jack, is a British Police Officer, and one day is called to the scene of a murder. Jack assumes this will be like any other murder case he has seen on his many years being an officer however the this is anything but normal. It turns out Jack was with the murdered woman last night and has no idea what might have happened.
.
Jacks ex-wife Anna appears at the murder scene as well as she is a news reporter and is there to cover the story. Anna too knows the victim as they use to be classmates and friends. When other people known to both Jack and Anna are found dead they know there must be some connection and they need to figure out who committed the crimes.
.
This audiobook was fantastic to listen to. There was multiple narrators who were all terrific and the tone of voice kept me interested. The story is told in interchanging perspectives between Jack, Anna and the killer. The added storyline from the perspective of the killer was unique and added a great sense of mystery to the story. I thought the book was great from start to finish. There are some scenes that are graphic in sexual nature in case this is something you prefer to avoid but it’s minimal. The ending of the story was perfect and tied up all the loose ends. This is one I think all thriller fans will love.

🎧I listened to this on audio. There are three narrators namely: him, her and the killer. And can I just say, everytime the killer's distorted voice started speaking, my heart did a little jolt of fear. It was hella freaky but it did the job for sure 😂.⠀
⠀
🧩I must say, this started out a little slow for me. However, once I reached the 50% mark, it really started to peak my interest and I became invested in the mystery. ⠀
⠀
🥾This is definitely a solid thriller and is a good read for sure. The writing is great and the character arcs are well fleshed-out. ⠀

4.5 Stars - A great twisty thriller from the perspective from "his" and "hers". Layers of secrets slowly revealed throughout the audiobook which I enjoyed. Lots of unexpected twists and turns. Get ready for a fun ride! #HisHers #NetGalley

What started out as an interesting thriller, quickly lost my interest at the 30% mark. I continued to the end to see what the conclusion would be, and once again I was disappointed by the ending of a thriller, although this one was not too horrible.

We are following two unreliable narrators as they try to understand a crime that happened in their small town. One is a detective trying to solve the crime and the other is a reporter reporting on the crime. Both have reasons to be the murderer, but keep telling the audience that they aren't the one who did it. There is also a third distorted voice that we know from the beginning is the killer, and hints at being both of the main POVs. The main mystery is around who actually did it, who is that voice, and why they did it.

The characters were not enjoyable to read about, although I will give credit that I don't believe you were supposed to like them. They are people who have gone through something horrible and just trying to survive on the other side. The plot and writing were not bad, but after a time they gave me no reason to keep going with the story. I wasn't necessarily bored, it was just that I didn't care enough to know all the information I was being presented with.

Overall I would say that it wasn't a terrible story, but I didn't enjoy it myself.

Thanks to Netgalley and Macmillan Audio for providing me with a free copy in exchange for an honest review!

I loved this audiobook so much! I can’t express how happy I am that I read this via audio, it was the perfect audiobook. I loved both narrators and the story was fun too. I didn’t expect how twisty it was going to get. I liked the author’s first two novels but this is her best yet.

Alice Feeney has done it again with His & Hers. Set in a small town, the secrets and lies come to light as a serial killer works their way through, getting closer to our hero and heroine. You won't see this ending coming.

Thoroughly interesting

I love mysteries. This is a rich and complex story with multiple possible villains and not-saints.

Near the end of this book I had a couple of different ideas which way the story would go but I didn’t know and it made it infinitely interesting. This is a story that I have backed up to the beginning of a chapter because I wanted to hear it again – just because it was that interesting, and not the usual reason that I was not paying close enough attention.

There are three voices in the book, though the third is unknown, keeping the whole mystery of His and Hers interesting. A lot of nominees get some consideration as the third voice until they die horribly. I found that as I got closer and closer to the end, I was both pulled in different directions. I wanted to know where we were going and didn’t want to end.

TW: sexual assault, eating disorders, mild animal mutilation

This story was a little slow to start, but once it got going it was incredibly interesting. At each turn I thought I figured it out- and would get more detail that would make me question myself! When the story was peaking at the end, I really thought I had it figured out...and then there was the final twist.

And it was so absurd that I took away two stars.

The story this book leads you to believe is realistic, and makes the most sense. The final twist removed any of the sensible motives. I genuinely hated the twist.

The writing is very well done, and the different perspectives was interesting. Hearing how “Him” and “Her” perceived one another, and how the killer saw them all, really brought this story to life. The way the audiobook had the distorted audio for the killer was superb. Genuinely, other than the twist at the end, this book was very good.

Best audio book I may have ever listened to! The narration of the two main characters was amazing, as was the secret 3rd unknown. Crazy good story but the narrators brought it to life!! Loved it!!

This is a story about secrets

I enjoyed this twisty, turny thriller. I felt certain I knew who the killer was, but I was totally wrong (which I loved). I would highly recommend audiobooking this, as the narration is FANTASTIC.

I’m also thrilled to have listened to this audiobook via the new Net Galley app! It’s very user friendly & I like being able to look over my little Net Galley library!

Thanks Net Galley & Macmillan Audio for this e-audiobook!

This audiobook gripped me from the very beginning, and both narrators did a wonderful job (plus that creepy voice, holy crap!). The story follows a divorced couple; Anna is a BBC reporter and Jack is a detective. Both of them become involved on both professional and personal levels with the recent murder of a woman, and the intrigue takes off from there. The narration jumps between Anna and Jack's perspectives, as well as there being a third perspective from the murderer. My theories about where this was going and who was behind it all changed constantly, and I was both shocked and surprisingly pleased with the reveal at the end. This definitely made the list as one of my favorite thrillers!

Thank you to NetGalley and Macmillan Audio for providing an ARC copy of this audiobook!

Thanks to NetGalley and Macmillan Audio for the complimentary copy of this audiobook.

His & Hers is a brilliant psychological thriller that will have you guessing left, right and in between in trying to figure out who the killer is. I was sure so many times that I knew who was guilty only to doubt myself, and then doubt myself again. I'm leaving the plot vague because like with so many thrillers, the less you know the better.

What I can tell you is that the book goes back and forth between BBC reporter Anna Andrews and Detective Jack Harper. There's also a third narrator that I'll let you discover for yourself. The narrators do a fantastic job of bringing their characters to life.

I highly recommend this one to those who love thrillers. As far as murder mysteries this is a fairly graphic one so if you are at all squeamish this might be one to avoid.

Trigger warnings for topics related to school hazing/bullying as well as sexual and animal abuse.

I received a digital copy of this audiobook from Netgalley in return for my honest review.

I didn’t know anything about this book going in (I didn’t even read the description) only saw that it said mystery/thriller. I think it’s best to go into this without knowing much of anything. The story is told from three perspectives “his”, “hers” and a third narrator. I thought the way it was produced for audio was really interesting with the third narrator speaking through a voice altering device, something I’ve never encountered in an audiobook. This novel kept my guessing and changing my mind about who the killer was, which is exactly what I want in a murder mystery.

TW: Rape & animal abuse

4 stars

This was my first Alice Feeney book and honestly, I wasn’t disappointed. The audiobook was fantastic, the narrators were PERFECT. And to top it all off, the murder POV was the creepiest thing I have ever listened to. It added so much suspense to the book!

With rotating chapters, you immediately get tossed into a murder investigation. The entire time I was trying to figure out who did it and why. I didn’t expect the twists that came out of this one. There were a few bits (see TW) that I felt were far too detailed/unnecessary. Other than that, the book was very fast-paced and I found myself finishing it very quickly.

If you don’t mind the TW, then definitely pick up this book. With multiple POVs, a thrilling story, and a few shocking twists, His & Hers will have you devouring this book.

Special thanks to Netgalley/Macmillan Audio!

Anna Andrews is experiencing the worst day of her life. She's been demoted from her dream job as a news reader for the BBC and been assigned to a murder case in her hometown, a place she's tried to run away from and forget. As she begins her investigative reporting, she's surprised to find one of her childhood friends is the victim. With her friend's death, the secrets Anna has tried to bury and forget are in jeopardy of resurfacing.

Jack Harper needs a change in his luck. He's been living the same routine for the past couple of years, after the death of his daughter, his divorce and leaving his job as a police officer in London. He's replaced them with a new child, new woman and new job as DCI in his hometown of Blackdown, but he needs something to break up the monotony. He's called to investigate the murder of a woman he knows very intimately, a fact he keeps to himself. Soon his whole life begins to unravel.

This thriller is well paced, alternating between His, Her and the Killers POVs. I really enjoyed listening to the book, finishing it as quickly as I could, without little ears in the room. It's action packed and will keep you guessing on who are the good ones and who are the bad ones. Many chapters leave you with the right amount of suspense, making you listen for just a few more minutes. I thought Armitage and Racine did an excellent job bringing the characters to life. I thought having them both read as the Killer POV made it even more exciting in the whodunit mystery. Warning, there are triggers for bullying, rape and animal abuse, mixed with typical murder gore, all of which pick up pace towards the middle to end of the book.

I received a copy of this audiobook from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Terrific read and highly recommend. Just when you think you have it figured out......another twist. Full of twists and dark. The narrators voices are pleasant. One of my favorite thrillers. Thank you to NetGalley for sending me an early audiobook.

A special thank you to NetGalley and Flatiron books for giving me a copy of the audiobook in exchange for an honest review.

I loved listening to this book. The voices drew me in immediately. The point of you switched between Jack and Anna- two very complex characters who are wrapped up in a dark, twisted killing spree. The third point of view is the killer- I loved that it seemed like the person was using a machine to completely disguise their voice! I wanted to listen to this story non stop. The chapters ended in cliff hangers and always had my mind racing on trying to figure out who the killer is..... this is a 5 star fast paced thriller that will keep you guessing and will keep you at the edge of your seat. At times creepy this book lived up to the hype, I high recommend!!
