There are lots of modern thrillers out there right now with some definite soap-opera-esque moments, but this one takes the cake. More than anything, I just couldn't get past the silly events that lead up to the big twist. It isn't possible, probable, or logical in any way, shape or form. If you're someone who doesn't mind that type of thing, this isn't a bad story, but I wasn't expecting fantasy and was disappointed.

Lizzie Oullette has never been accepted in her own community and now she is dead. Her husband Dwayne is missing. No one in town would really blame him for getting rid of Lizzie, considering her background.

Adrienne Richards is preparing her escape. Her husband has always brought her trouble. She is always cleaning up his messes.

Kat Rosenfield wrote a well-paced thriller with twists and turns keeping the reader on their toes. She proves that most people only see what they want to see.

A compelling psychological thriller that you won't be able to put down!

Lizzie Roulette tells her story from the grave. After a junkyard burns down and she is discovered brutally murdered, all eyes fall on her husband Dwayne, who is missing. As the investigation is underway we see what a tangled web her life was - nothing is as it seems.

Though I did predict the big twist, I never the less enjoyed this clever thriller filled with deception. Go in blind - the less you know, the better!

Thank you to NetGalley and William Morrow for the arc.

I would like to thank Net Galley for an advanced copy of this book. This is my honest feedback. I thought the writing was good and the story flowed well. I think the author has a way with words and setting a scene. I just did not like the plot line of this story. I understand how bitter you can feel when it seems like everyone has it in for you like they did for Lizzie and I thought Duane was a jerk, but just the whole plot line involving Lizzie made me uncomfortable. I guess because she was painted as a victim, I believed she was. I do not want to give the story away, so I will leave it at that. I did finish the book and I am glad I finished it. I just didn’t enjoy everything about this book.

[3.5 stars]

It's rare that a psychology thriller stands out for me. Often, they're entertaining enough to keep me reading (being easy helps), but don't stick in my head for long. And, that's the case with No One Will Miss Her. The story is set in a small town in Maine, where a local outcast (Lizzie) is found dead and her husband has gone missing. The investigation leads to a big city social media influencer who was renting Lizzie’s small lake house. I did enjoy the thoughtful commentary on it being hard to out-run your past and people always judging you based on your childhood reputation. I wouldn't tell anyone not to read it, but I also can't see myself proactively recommending it to a lot of people.

The book was a good read and interesting after the first hundred pages. Those pages were filled with background and character descriptions but it was almost too much. The book focuses on Lizzie who lead a hard life and Adrienne who was on the privileged side of life. The book traces their earlier days and relationships and opens with a grizzly murder. The means to get to solve this crime composed the book. As I said almost too much background but I still couldn't solve the murder.

The well-written yet somewhat stereotypical characters make this story and the use of different points of view make for a much more interesting read. There were a couple of effective twists in the plot that were easy to figure out. I voluntarily reviewed an advance readers copy of this book.

What a ride - a great thriller to end the year with - a narrator speaking from the grave, and a mystery of who murdered her at the center of this novel - i loved the characters, the mystique and the pace!

Enjoyed this one more than I expected to. Things certainly aren't as they appear and sometimes the choices the made didn't really make sense, but it was entertaining all the same. Good pacing, and good character development, and plenty of clues to catch on to the twist for those why pay attention.

Another one I wish I'd gotten to sooner! I loved the alternating timeline and POV, and I didnt see the big twist although in retrospect I feel like it was obvious. At times it was hard to follow and a bit messy, but overall I enjoyed this and would read more from this author

I received a free ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review..

What an interesting premise for a book. The story was told from several points of view, but they were all easy to follow and added well to the story. It was a pretty fast-paced story. Some of it was a little implausible but it was still a good storyline. 3.5

No One Will Miss Her is a compelling, fast-paced psychological suspense with a shocking twist! I loved every minute of this unputdownable novel! Definitely check this one out, if you haven’t already read it

Okay this book was so good and fun. It was so fun following these characters and just imagining how others view you after your death is just so interesting. I loved the unique take on following someone after they died, such a great thriller - highly recommend!

There is a fire at the local junkyard owned by Lizzie Oullette’s father. Lizzie has been murdered and her husband is missing. The state police are called in and Detective Ian Bird is assigned. I have to admit, I thought the book was a little slow in the beginning but after I got farther into the book, I realized that maybe I was a little slow on the uptake. The book has many twists and turns that I kept me interested. I’m glad I kept reading.

4.5/5

When I saw the cover for No One Will Miss Her by Kat Rosenfield I immediately knew I had to read it. This was a total cover buy based on how gorgeous it is, and in this instance that completely worked out for me! I know how we feel about AJ Finn these days, but his blurb for this book was spot on. I found it highly original and refreshing, and I loved it even had a couple of jaw-dropping moments even though I wasn't expecting it. One of the best parts of the book is probably the audio, and I highly recommend it for audiobook listeners. The narrators are Cassandra Campbell, Sophie Amoss & Chris Andrew Ciulla, and it's always great to have different narrators for different characters. There are some pretty heavy topics touched on in this book, and some parts were really hard to read, but it completely blew me away and Rosenfield handled it all very well.

I started to suspect what was going on as time went on, but I wasn't anywhere close to guessing the full story. No One Will Miss Her was a tough read and there is one part of animal cruelty that killed me, but that would be pretty easy to skip over if you wanted to. I feel like I've said it without saying it but to be clear I would definitely call this a dark read. There is a detective viewpoint (Ian Bird) which gives the story a bit of a police procedural/detective fiction vibe that I enjoyed, and that played in really nicely with the very end as well. Rosenfield is apparently a master at her craft judging by how much I loved the book, and it is such a clever story. I have no idea why I hadn't heard of her before this, but I am glad I know about her now and I'm looking forward to reading more of her novels!

I received a complimentary digital copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

A twist I was not expecting occurred fairly early on in the book. Three cheers to Kat Rosenfield for this suspensful story!

Everyone has their own understanding of what appeals to them in fiction. Something I love is a dead narrator. For some reason, this makes me implicitly trust them. It’s even better if they acknowledge their own unlikability as is the case with the unloved Lizzie Ouellette. No One Will Miss Her opens with her imagining an old drunk sitting around the local bar after her death and announcing, “It ain’t like me to speak ill of the dead, but the hell with it—good riddance to her!” This is someone who’s not going to sugarcoat anything in the pages to follow. It’s also a character I want to know more about and in No One Will Miss Her I get exactly what I want.

Lizzie’s alcoholic father runs the junkyard in Copper Falls and raises her on his own with the not-unexpected result that she endures a childhood of bullying for being unkempt and boyish. There are two ways children go with this—run or stand down the bullies. Lizzie chooses the latter, seeming to almost revel in her hard luck. She then commits an even greater sin by claiming pregnancy to trap the town’s favorite son. The marriage is no good for either and now the local police have discovered her body (in parts) at home. Her husband is missing.

A state police detective is called in and Lizzie’s life is unwound. This unwinding brings to light yet another reason the locals dislike her so much: she rents an old summer cottage she inherited to outsiders. Mostly a woman from Boston, an Instagram influencer with enough wealth and entitlement to make everyone miserable even as they take her money. Questions arise: Why would someone who could go anywhere spend her summers in a backwoods Maine town?

No One Will Miss Her is told from Lizzie’s (dead) perspective and Adrienne, the woman who appears to have the life Lizzie longs for. As the detective digs and speaks with Adrienne he realizes that despite the disparities, these two are more alike than they are different. With a steady hand author Kat Rosenfield marks the twisted trail between Lizzie and Adrienne leading the reader into a plot that, while it may sway into the implausible, is still vastly entertaining.

No One Will Miss Her by Kat Rosenfield tells the story of Lizzie Oullette, a young woman in rural Maine who has always been a pariah. She grew up in a junkyard and was always poor. She ends up marrying Dwayne, a local baseball star who lost his career after an injury. The story starts with Lizzie's mutilated body being found in the rental lake house she owns and Dwayne nowhere to be found. Ian Bird, a detective with the Maine State Police is assigned to the case. The investigation leads him to Boston and to Adrienne, a rich socialite who rented Lizzie's lake house out every summer. What could she possibly have to do with the murder of Lizzie?
This was a fun read! I really enjoyed the structure of the story. The chapters alternate between Lizzie (from the grave), Adrienne, and Ian Bird. Slowly, bits and pieces are revealed and you get to learn what happened. The characters were relatable. The plot was very unique. I definitely want to read more by this author.
Thanks to Net Galley and the publisher for the advanced copy of this book. All opinions are my own.

I liked the premise and found the opening with Lizzie narrating from the grave to be intriguing. As the story went on I began to suspect what the twist would be. The suspension of disbelief is high for this story. I found the first half to be faster paced than the second. I liked the short chapter as well. Overall, I wasn't too shocked with the resolution

This book was a bit difficult for me to get into. I took a 6 day break after reading the first 25% of the book so it took me another 50 pages to remember what the story was about. I almost gave up, but was glad I didn't because the last half of the book was so good. Definitely threw me for a loop and I was unsure if one of the main characters was going to be discovered!
