Yet another thriller I had to DNF.

*Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this arc in exchange for my honest review*

A great thriller - I would recommend it!

This was an interesting thriller that I would recommend to those who think it sounds good!

I received an e-ARC from the publisher

I really wanted this thriller to work for me, however that was not the case. Has it not been for a review I would have Dnf'd this thriller. I tried to get into the story, but the writing really took me out a lot.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for an advanced copy of the book in exchange for a honest review.

As long as you take this book as a popcorn summer read, you can really enjoy No One Needs to Know. After reading, I felt like me and my best friend had just gone through a long gossiping session. The characters were memorable with some you'll love and some you'll hate. I didn't really feel a connection with anyone and I had a sense I read something very similar to this before. However, by midpoint, the plot did pick up and become more interesting as the secrets revealed got more salacious. The ending was just ok for me. Overall, an entertaining Gossip Girl style novel for adults.

This was ok, I powered through the last bit because it was very slow for my liking. While it was not for me it could be for you

No One Needs To Know
By Lindsay Cameron
Review and Rating 3 ⭐️

No One Needs To Know by Lindsey Cameron is a fun little read about a group of wealthy New York residents with secrets to keep, who think the secrets are safe on an anonymous online forum. Then the forum gets hacked… they will do anything to keep the secrets hidden, until someone winds up dead.
If you are a fan of Big Little Lies and similar, you will enjoy this one. 3⭐️

I want to thank NetGalley and Bantam Books for the eARC. All opinions expressed in this review are my own.

***Note*** I seldom give ⭐️or ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ratings. If I feel a book is a ⭐️sometimes I just prefer to not finish reading it and not rate it. As for 5 ⭐️books, I think of those as books I would want to take with me to a deserted island 🏝️, and this means I read a whole lot of ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️star books. Happy Reading!

Lindsay Cameron's "No One Needs To Know" dives into the opulent, yet scandalous, world of New York's Upper East Side. The story follows a group of interconnected characters, each harboring dark secrets, who find themselves entangled in a web of lies and manipulation fueled by an anonymous app called "Urban Myth."

The novel is a fast-paced read, perfect for those seeking a bit of escapism. The plot unfolds with plenty of twists and turns, keeping you guessing until the very end. The characters, while not always likable, are undeniably captivating. Their ambition, desperation, and moral ambiguity provide a fascinating glimpse into the depths human nature can reach.

Overall, "No One Needs To Know" is a solid summer read. It offers a satisfying dose of drama, scandal, and juicy secrets, making it a perfect choice for fans of soapy fiction.

This is definitely not a book to read if you hate the 1%, lol. But if you want to see how they live,come on in! This had twists and turns and an ending I wasn't expecting. 4 stars!

If you like Gossip Girl or reading about the 1%, then you just might like this book! Personally, I looove diving into the world of the elite and seeing how the other half lives, so this was a great one for me! It had a good story with mostly surface-level characters and some mystery thrown in for good measure. This would make for a great read while sitting out by the pool!

Lindsay Cameron's "No One Needs to Know" is an irresistible tale of secrets, scandals, and murder set in the high-stakes world of Manhattan's Upper West Side.

If Tinx were creating a Rich Mom package on the luxurious Upper West Side, as depicted in the novel No One Needs to Know, she would feature Urban Myth an anonymous discussion board. This is where the characters of the story reveal their deepest secrets - secrets that they wouldn't even communicate with their closest friends or significant others. Everything from hidden bank accounts to hush-hush affairs and scandalous gossip. These same characters would go above and beyond to ensure their children's admission into the most prestigious boarding schools and universities. However, when hackers breached this forum and revealed the real identities of each poster, the effects were felt throughout Park Avenue with a magnitude that no one could have predicted.

And then, of course, somebody ends up dead.

Heather Quinn, a former Wall Street executive, aims to secure her daughter's admission to an Ivy League boarding school. However, Violet's reputation is tarnished when a photo of her vaping surfaces on Instagram, along with false accusations of drug dealing. Heather investigates and confronts the snobbish Upper West Side moms who might be behind the rumours. And those women play for keeps.

The story is filled with twists and turns that keep you guessing until the end, even though the resolution may feel too convenient. But hey, in a world where everyone has something to hide, and no one is who they seem, who needs a perfect ending anyway? "No One Needs to Know" is the perfect guilty pleasure read for those who love a mix of suspense, satire, and a splash of murder. Just be careful not to put it all out there, on some anonymous message board...

You know what they say....nothing is anonymous online....even if you think it is! Here's a twisted tale of just how true that is! Well done.

A good suspenseful thriller that revolves around things that happen due to sharing too much information on social media. The story is told through multiple POVs, which keeps you invested in the main characters and guessing the outcome. Lots of secrets and lies in this quick read. 4 stars

Thanks to NetGalley for an ARC of this book.

If you’re looking for a rich people, suburban drama, this is it. It was a super fast read, although nothing super surprising or shocking, I still enjoyed it and binged it over 2 days.

I enjoyed the mixed media aspect, with the chat boards and emails that were sent. It gave it a fun, modern twist on the everyday thriller.

Thank you to NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for my honest review.

This was a great quick read. The characters were fleshed out well, Heather was very unlikeable but by the end I could at least relate on a minor level with what drove her as a mother. As a whole it was fun peek into New York's upper echelon culture and the tiger mom's and dad's who will do whatever they feel necessary to make their children succeed. It's another example of social media gone wrong and the dark lesson of being able to post TOO easily. It gives a false sense of security for people enough so, they don't realize almost anything will exist digitally long after you think you've deleted it.

So, let me just say that my kids' schools had something sort of similiar. An app where the kids can report Bullying anonymously. It really turned out to be a distaster at the end of the day.

So when I saw this was a book about an app where people can post anonymously, I knew I had to read it! I was not disappointed.
It deals with the wealthy and entitled parents who post secrets on this app. The modern day version of the game "Telephone"
Each of the parents represented a "stereo Type" of the moms out there today
Helicopter Parent
The mom who is living through her kid
The mom who works all the time and has no clue what is happening.

The key to really enjoying this book, was to realize it was almost a satire of what happens with "moms" now a days and how much damage gossip can do.

Thank you so much to Netgalley and the Publisher for the arc!

Thanks for the review copy. This was like Gossip Girk meets Big Little Lies. I wanted to like it more than I did.

I loved this book about what can happen when people share things not meant to be shared on social media forums and then their identity is shown.. Wow, just thinking about all the problems that could cause-and did! One problem after another and lots of finger pointing by the reader as the identity of the person is not revealed. Keeps you on the edge of your seat!

I opened this book and started reading at least six times over the past year. I really tried so hard to like it and stay interested in it. But it just wasn't for me.

3 stars!

I was excited for this because I thought the synopsis gave Gossip Girl or Big Little Lies energy but unfortunately it felt more like a run of the mill thriller. I thought the beginning had a strong start, especially with the salacious anonymous secrets, but the end left a lot to be desired.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for an ARC in exchange for an honest review!
