If you love thrillers that are dark, twisty, and with a bright light of hope at the end, "The Other Sister" by Jessica R. Patch is for you.
All I can really say about this book is WOW. Ms. Patch has definitely found her niche writing in this genre.
Wow. This was a mind trip of deceit, lies and truly chilling moments that left me guessing at every turn of the page. Jessica Patch has once again proven that she can expertly craft a sinister plot that twists and turns until literally the last page. This story kept me hooked! I truly didn’t know who to trust, what was real and what was a crafted illusion. Each flawed character fits like a puzzle piece into this dark and unpredictable plot and all comes together in the end for a shocking conclusion!
Y’all there are twists in this book that made my jaw drop! Everything you could want from a thriller while keeping it clean and adding a thread of hope. I loved every minute.
I received an advance reader copy from the publisher. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
Dark and twisty, this book had me pulled in from the very beginning. Families with dark secrets and mysteries to be solved. Very good!
This book is extraordinary. It has quite literally blown my mind, and I am still thinking on it to this day. That doesn't happen very often. Especially when you're like me and read a ton of books. So, when I say that this book sticks with you, it sticks with you.
When you start to read this book just go ahead and clear your schedule. You're going to need to. I had to know what was going to happen next. It was almost like a complex. I could feel myself holding my breath at certain points and wanting to scream in the next. I loved it. There are so many angles and wrong turns that it becomes like this giant maze in your head, and you just keep trying to figure things out. Did I mention that I LOVED this book? I still cannot get over that ending.
I honestly do not want to say too much about it because I do not want to accidentally let the cat out of the bag and ruin all of the surprises in this book. Just pay attention to EVERYTHING and I do mean everything. Even if it seems like the smallest detail. Trust me on this.
This was a roller coaster ride, and I want to get back on lol.
Thanks to Net Galley, the publishers, and to Jessica R. Patch for the ability to read and review this book. All opinions are my own and are completely honest.
A dark, twisty psychological thriller that will have you reading long into the night! Complex characters with storylines of multiple forms of abuse, trauma, and mental illness keep the reader engaged and always trying to guess what is coming next. This story went directions I never saw coming and just when I thought I might have it figured out, another twist would catch me off guard demolishing my theory.
Jessica R. Patch absolutely outdid herself with this book! Her books never disappoint and I throughly enjoyed reading this one.
I was given a complimentary copy of this book by the publisher through NetGalley. All opinions expressed are completely my own.
This was by far the darkest book I’ve ever read. It’s the combination of a horror and an awful family full of secrets. To be honest, I hated it. From a demon child to a stalker to the very nasty, dreadful mess. I only continued reading to know what happened in the end. The only good thing I can say about this book is that it's unpredictable. But there were also certain things that didn’t seem wrapped up to me. One character just vanished at one point for no real reason. All the characters were difficult to keep up with and the amount of evil things that the Christian author piled into this book is honestly concerning. I’ve read books about fighting and death and evil, but this one to me hardly classifies as a Christian novel. God was mentioned 8 times in this horrible novel. With the content, He should have been mentioned a hundred times. I most certainly will not be reading this book again. And I may never read another book by this author. I probably should give this book one star, but I know how difficult it is to write a book so I added another just for her effort.
Many thanks to Netgalley and Harlequin Love for an ARC of this book. A real psychological thriller that was hard to put down. When I thought I might have something figured out there would be more twists and turns. Very suspenseful to the very end. I highly recommend reading this one. The opinion expressed is my own.
This is one of the rare books that grabbed me in the first few pages! Jessica Patch writes some really good thrillers and this was no exception. Lots of mystery and intrigue and complicated people. Will keep you turning the pages and staying up past your bedtime reading!
Wow! Such an action packed book with so many twists and turns. Just when I thought I had it figured out, the storyline turned on me.
I was given a complimentary copy of this book from Netgalley and the publisher. All words are my own.
Fans of this author may like this book. It definitely had some twists.
However, I found the characters unlikeable and the plot was not believable, confusing and difficult to follow. I was disappointed that I didn't enjoy it more.
All opinions are my own.
All I can say is “WOW”!!! This book was phenomenal! It reads like a main stream psychological suspense but it doesn’t have the language and graphic content like a main stream book. And talk about the twists! There were twists all the way through until the very end. It just blew my mind! I can’t say enough great things about this book. This is one that I will keep thinking about and it will stay with me for a while! I definitely recommend this book and all of Jesssica Patch’s books.
I received this book from the publisher through NetGalley for my honest opinion.
I really wish I could give this book more than 5 stars! It deserves at least 10!!!!
“The Other Sister” is an engrossing psychological thriller that hooks you from the first page and refuses to let go. The story is brilliantly paced, with a plot that twists and turns in ways you won’t see coming. It’s one of those books you’ll find impossible to put down, as every chapter leaves you eager for more. A must-read for fans of thrillers!
This book was phenomenal! I couldn't put it down. Action packed from the first page, so many unexpected plot twists but the last one made my jaw literally drop! Would give this book 10 stars if I could!!
I really enjoyed this and flew through it. Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read this ARC!
This book is not for the faint of heart, but if you are looking for a book that will suck you in and not let you go until the very last jaw-dropping page, this is it! I would describe this book as a mix of Flowers In The Attic and Peyton Place. I would also describe it as a split-time novel as it tells about the current story with glimpses into the past. Charlotte Kane lives in Chicago where she is trying to make ends meet, then she gets word that her mother has passed away from an overdose. Charlotte finds out that she has an identical sister and reaches out to her. Her name is Acelynn and she agrees to come to Chicago and meet Charlotte. Due to a mix-up, Charlotte winds up taking Acelynn's place. When she arrives in Savannah, she is in for a shock. Who can she trust, are they a friend or a foe? I don't want to give any spoilers, but this book will have you saying "What just happened!" I want to thank Netgalley and the publisher for allowing me to read an early copy of this book. I will be ordering a physical copy and will be rereading it.
The Other Sister by Jessica R. Patch was a page-turning, twisty, thriller that will have you wanting for more.
This one was hard to put down! Well written and sufficiently suspenseful, with flashbacks to “then” of a girl growing up full of darkness. I love the twists and turns!
This story was a wild ride. Twins separated at birth, murderous gangsters, high society, interior design, and more secrets than you can shake a stick at - this book has it all.
I don't want to give too much away about the plot but suffice it to say that nothing is as it seems. The entire story is very high-paced and while some bits are maybe a little too coincidental and convenient, it's definitely entertaining and will keep you guessing!
Awesome, exciting, suspenseful, surprising, and hard to put down are just a few words to describe The Other Sister. I hope there will be a sequel at some point. Highly recommend this book...just be sure to save a period of time to read. You won't find a place you feel is a good stopping point. 5 stars plus.
