This one wasn’t a home run for me. I tried to see things from the MC’s POV but struggled. Overall it was just an “ok” read. I’ve heard the authors previous book is good so I’ll try that one.

I’d like to thank NetGalley and MIRA publishers for the advanced copy in exchange for my honest review.

Have you ever been so unbelievable consumed with something. Rage, sadness, happiness etc, that it becomes your entire life? Well that is what has happened with Frankie although she is consumed with revenge.
The whole "List" isn't suppose to be a Revenge list but rather part of her healing process in her anger-management classes ( yes, Frankie does have anger issues...that should be no surprise.

The list goes missing and whoever finds it, goes through it as if it is an execution list. However, there is no real way to prove that the killings that are happening to the peop[e on the "List" are a result of someone stealing the list (although it was my first guess)

This was absolutely a page turner that I could not put down.

The Revenge List by Hannah Mary McKinnon took a look at revenge and how it can overwhelm and consume a person. FMC Frankie has a past that has brought on major anger management challenges in her life. Her story begins with a list that is problematic in that it should be a forgiveness list but also reads like a revenge list. When it goes missing, people start getting hurt.

The premise of the story was intriguing for me as I really enjoy Hannah’s ability to twist and turn her stories but this one fell for me in the last section. Yes total twists and turns which kept me thinking but it felt very rushed. Like all of Hannah’s work she is able to make you question what is right and wrong.

This novel was entertaining. Was it my favourite from Hannah, No, but I am not upset that I read it. I cannot wait for what else Hannah brings to the table in the future. Thank you to @netgalley and @harpercollins @mirabooks for my digital ARC in return for an honest review. Opinions expressed are my own.

I can always count on Hannah Mary McKinnon to bring a unique story! I love the twist and surprises that are always in her books! What a fantastic thriller! I’d recommend to all who enjoy thriller books

Thank you for the opportunity to read this excellent thriller!

Great novel gripping, not a page turner but the ending was great
Would highly recommend to others. Ending was unexpected

3.5/5
This is my second book by HMM. Did I enjoy reading the book, yes. Was Frankie annoying and get herself into so bad situations that could have been avoided, yes. Was the ending a little meh, yes.

I had really high hopes for this one since I loved Never Coming Home. The first 50% of this book, I was all in and didn't want to put it down, but it felt a little repetitive and I could kind see where it was going. I was hopeful I was wrong, but I wasn't. The ending left me wanting more as I felt it we may get another book with Frankie. Will I read another HMM book, absolutely!

Dark, twisted and terrifying, The Revenge List is the mesmerizing new thriller by Hannah Mary McKinnon.

Finding herself in an anger-management class should come as no surprise to Frankie Morgan. The people in her life describe her as angry, combative and as somebody who would pick an argument in an empty room. Not that Frankie doesn’t have good reason for her fury as she has to contend with a neighbor who gets on her nerves, insufferable clients and the heart-wrenching knowledge that the driver who had killed her mother has evaded the supposedly long arm of the law. Frankie is naturally skeptical about this group anger-management session and she cannot help but roll her eyes at the frequently regurgitated mantras being spouted that forgiveness is key and that she needs to compile a list of every single person who has wronged her over the years to exorcise her demons. This was meant to be a relatively simple and straightforward exercise – until something very sinister begins to happen.

The list suddenly goes missing, but that is the least of Frankie’s problems. One by one, the people named in the list start getting hurt in freak accidents that have started to get more and more unsettling – and each one is deadlier than the last. Is this mere coincidence? Or could someone have got hold of her list and started to exact vengeance on her behalf? Frankie has got no time to lose – especially as her name is also in a very prominent position on this list and if she doesn’t find out who is behind it all, then she could be the next victim!

Hannah Mary McKinnon’s thrillers never fail to keep me turning the pages until three in the morning and The Revenge List is no different. Shocking, unpredictable and propulsive, this nail-biting page-turner is full of menace, tension, intrigue and suspense and I was on the edge of my seat and left reeling from jaw-dropping twist after jaw-dropping twist.

Chilling, unsettling and so creepy I had to sleep with the lights on for days, The Revenge List is another winner for Hannah Mary McKinnon.

Entertaining and immersive. A recommended purchase for collections where crime and thrillers are popular.

I struggled with this one at the beginning. It didn’t grab me right away and it took awhile to get into it.
However, it picked up and I loved the ending. I was pulled into this thriller.

Ahhh I LOVE Hannah's books and have not had one disappoint me yet, BUT...I couldn't finish this one. I don't know if it was the writing style or the character but I was having a very hard time getting in to the book and getting through it. I couldn't stand the main character and I think that was what I was having a hard time with. Maybe I'll come back to it one day but this was a miss for me.

The Revenge List is a thriller about an angry woman, Frankie, who creates a revenge list, leading to attacks and eventually murder. The plot is initially intriguing but becomes predictable as the reveal tease approaches. While it is good on a popcorn thriller level, the expectations are too high. The book has some fun parts, including nods to Lisa Unger, but the ending and final chapter are ridiculous. The book is readable but has high expectations. An ARC of the book was received in exchange for an honest review.

Thank you Netgalley for this copy for an honest review.

The Revenge List is certainly a wild ride and totally entertaining. Believable? Not so much. Over the top. Definitely. Super fun. Heck yes!

Frankie is such an angry character. And while that's kind of the point of the book and she arguably has good reason to be, it made for a tedious and often aggravating read. I listened to this novel on audio which probably didn't help that fact. The narrator was good but it was very much acted in full and the tension and rage totally gave me anxiety!

I didn't exactly guess things correctly with this novel - which is always fun - but I also wasn't totally off base. There are quite a few storylines that merge together which was a pro and a con. It helped keep me guessing and a little off track, but it was also just a lot. I was glad with how things all came together though there was one aspect of the end that I really could've done without.

Overall, this was highly entertaining and would totally make a great movie. If you want something fast-paced, thrilling, and that will really rile you up, I definitely recommend.

Thank you to Mira Books and NetGalley for the copy.

The Revenge List is a solid thriller with a likable character and plenty of twists and turns. Morgan works for her father's construction business and is required to attend anger management sessions. But she locks eyes with a stranger, her notebook goes missing (the one where she wrote down names! gasp!), and this kicks off the rest of the book. She searches for the notebook and tries to figure out who took it before people on the list are harmed. This was not my favorite book by the author, but I did enjoy it.

This book was a bit of a miss for me coming in at 3 stars.
Frankie was a character that I hated at the outset, but it seems like that is part of the plan for the book. I did appreciate her growth throughout and was curious to get to the bottom of her missing journal and the revenge list that lies within so I kept going. In the end though the payoff wasn't as great as I had hoped for and it didn't make up for the repitition that Frankie's character and the journal seemed to thrive off of in the reading of the book.

Great premise and cleverly written.
Reading how the names on « the list » were tied to Frankie’s life was fun.
A few predictable moments for me but also some surprises.
Although I could « the » cliffhanger coming I LOVED it all the same.
I truly enjoy this author and would recommend this to friends for sure.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for this ARC. I really like the premise of this book. It was different and kept my interest! I would recommend to all my suspense lovers!

‘The Revenge List’ was another great thriller I couldn’t put down! When Frankie attends anger management therapy sessions (at the request of her dad) she meets a boy and they get coffee together. When her notebook goes missing and she finds him digging through her purse, Frankie’s life gets more hectic than she could have ever imagined! Great read, I would recommend to anyone!

This book was one wild ride. Morgan is required by her father to attend anger management sessions held at a local church. Little does she know that her life was about to change in a way that no one was expecting. After locking eyes with a good looking stranger, a date, and a lost notebook, bad things start to happen to those who had the misfortune of having their name written down. She then has to go on a journey to find out who took her journal and why the people on the list in there are being harmed. This is a quick, easy read and will definitely keep you on your toes. There is hardly a slow moment before another bit of drama happens. If you enjoy quick thrillers, this is a good book to pick up.

I loved this book! I will definitely recommend it. Thanks so much to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC.

Overall, this was a quick read that kept me guessing for the first 3/4 of the book. Once we had the reveal I could guess the ending. I'm not sure I liked the cliffhanger ending. I usually like mysteries wrapped up at the end.
