I was excited to read the Followers by Bradleigh Godfrey but ultimately disappointed in the story. The main characters were one dimensional and unlikeable. I did finish the book but could just have easily stopped without finishing. Not a favorite.
Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for allowing me to read this digital ARC.
A social media influencer, a bubbly personality, has no idea about her husband's secrets and that some of the people following her are connected to his path and might destroy her new life. Two likeable heroines with timely themes and intersecting paths make this an interesting fast moving mystery.
Such a great read that will have you thinking twice about what you put out on social media! Godfrey's style and twists along the way will keep you guessing, rooting for an underdog and turning the pages.
This was such an eye opening look into the world of social media influencers and the dangers of oversharing! I absolutely loved this one and enjoyed a look into what goes into being an influencer! Very suspenseful with twists I never saw coming! I look forward to more by Bradleigh Godfrey!
4.5/5⭐️
I really enjoyed this one! It was a quick-paced easy read with a good plot flow. I enjoyed getting to know all the characters and found the twist at the end quite good! I felt like the end was realistic and well wrapped up. I LOVED the social media aspect and the different narration changes from the start of the chapters to the message boards and texts. Give this book a go!
Thank you NetGalley and publishers for this arc!

Pretty readable, and the characters are even somewhat pleasant, but that doesn't change the fact that their motivations are occasionally completely nonsensical. The last 10% was especially vapid on an emotional level.
I enjoyed the thrills and vibes of this book. I loved the incorporation of social media and how it can be both good and bad. I liked how it showed how cops can use social media to solve crimes. It also brings up to struggles of being an influencer in the modern world.
Heart pounding thriller that left me on the edge of my seat. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this one. Definitely one of the best books this year.
Fun, escapist reading for mystery and suspense lovers. The social media theme is timely and accurate. Recommended for mystery and suspense lovers and those who love social media. Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC. #TheFollowers #NetGalley

Fast, fun, maybe a little too accurate when it comes to social media. This was a one sitting kind of book. I really hope to see a lot more from Godfrey in the future.
This was a very new topic for me to delve into, and let me tell you, I loved it! Social media may have an attractive facade, but once you dig deeper, you see where all the bodies are buried (sometimes, literally!)
