21 posts | 15 read | 9 to read
The perfect daughter. The perfect girlfriend. The perfect murder? Jenna is given another shot at life when she receives a donor heart from a girl called Callie. Eternally grateful to Callie and her family, Jenna gets closer to them, but she soon discovers that Callies perfect family is hiding some very dark secrets Callies parents are grieving, yet Jenna knows theyre only telling her half the story. Where is Callies sister Sophie? Shes been abroad since her sisters death but something about her absence doesnt add up. And when Jenna meets Callies boyfriend Nathan, she makes a shocking discovery. Jenna knows that Callie didnt die in an accident. But how did she die? Jenna is determined to discover the truth but it could cost her everything; her loved ones, her sanity, even her life A compelling, gripping psychological thriller with a killer twist from the author of the Number One bestseller The Sister. What everyone is saying about Louise Jensen: I was gripped to The Sister from the first page until the very end. I thought I had it all worked out until I was proven sooo wrong. Robert Bryndza I could not put this book down. I neglected all the house work and put off cooking dinner until I was finished I loved every page. Renee Reads My eyes were racing down the pages had me guessing right up to the very end and I had tears in my eyes as I relived Charlie's last moments exceptional It's an addictive page-turner that begs time and again for just one more chapter until the whole book has been devoured and thoroughly enjoyed. The Book Magnet Wow! What an amazing debut novel! Full of intense twists! Fantastic book to start off summer reading! Highly recommend. Loud and Proud Book Junkie I loved this book, it grabbed me right from the beginning it got under my skin, I felt intimately close to Grace and was rooting for her all the way compelling and scary and unputdownable. Beady Jans Books I genuinely struggled to put this book down I can't recommend this book enough, it's made it to my favourites ... I can't wait for more books to come from Louise Jensen A well-deserved five stars from me. Emporio Epidemic I couldn't put my Kindle down until I had answers!! I wasn't sure which characters to trust and which to not trust ! Steph and Chris Book Review As the skillfully woven web of lies and deceit starts to untangle the author throws in a massive twist that I certainly didn't see coming a definite must read for all psychological thriller fans and it's one of those books that deserves to be talked about. The Haphazardous Hippo One of those books that you can't stop thinking about even when you're not reading it!! ... the tension never seems to drop for one second! an absolute treat, albeit a scary one, to read!! Highly recommended!! Books and Me! Just as I thought the story was wrapping up BANG! I was hit again with another twist. Brilliant! It is chilling and sinister and yet heart-breaking and tragic, and I felt really emotional on finishing it I cant wait to read more by Louise. Bloomin Brilliant Books OMG I love this ... one corker of a psychological thriller which which ticked all the boxes for me giving it an easy 5 stars Chelles Book Reviews Hooked from the first page till the end ... A gripping tale for fans of I Let You Go and The Girl on the Train. A must read. Berlitz Chile I was left gaping You cannot help but speed read through this novel. You have to know what happens and with each page a new idea or theory springs to mind. Nothing compares to the way it turns out. Aloha Reviews I was hooked on the story from the word go ... I took special care in making sure my doors and windows were tightly locked before going to bed, Ill tell you that for nothing! Hollie in Wanderlust

I give this book a rating of 5 stars & I highly recommend reading this psychological thriller. In this book there was a lot going on. Louise really brought the characters to life, especially main character Jenna.The book kept me wanting to read it but about half way through I could just not put it down. I was not expecting what led up to the ending. This is the 2nd book that I have read by Louise Jensen and it definitely will not be my last!

My first Louise Jensen read and it won't be my last. A great book with some twists and thought provoking questions about organ transfer and if a part of the donors soul also goes with the organ. 💜💜

Loved this book! I‘d only heard of cellular memory and this is an interesting exploration. The plot is good and keeps you reading, especially the last quarter which I found really gripping. Looking forward to reading more from this author.

Ok I decided to stop being a brat. Here's the best kind of tree we can have with 5 cats and all the gifts from my secret santa and @Litlady and the few I got for myself like the simply fit board and the coloring set. I am very blessed and have a lot to be thankful for. See Stormy in the lower right hand corner plotting ?I really only have my mom, my boyfriend is working again, one other friend and the cats. Still have nightmares about "family" ☮☮

LauraBeth Merry Christmas @Mimi28! I would counter that you can omit using the word "only" ? so glad you're here on Litsy. Merry Christmas. Give Ozzie some scritches for me ? 7y
Mimi28 @LauraBeth thanks❤I am thankful for you and the other Littens too!! Hugs to Bitsy and the Kitsys 😻😻 7y
Simona I like your tree and gifts❣ 7y

8little_paws It's just me and my bf for Christmas this year plus the cats, so small celebration for us too! This means I can spend the day doing literally whatever I want! I love it. Feel like reading for six hours? OK! Or knitting and watching something on Netflix? That works! Or just getting some extra house work fine without interruption! 7y
Simona Happy Holidays to you too @Mimi28 ❣I will spend my holidays in bed with book, snoring dog and staking other Littens posts @8little_paws 😇 7y
Mimi28 @8little_paws Thanks! You're right. I'll find something to do. Have fun and happy holidays!! 🎄❤🎁 7y
Zelma I agree with @LauraBeth. You have your Litsy family now too! ❤️ btw, I love that card. We just hung a toilet paper holder and one of the boys discovered the joys of unrolling tp. 😂 7y

Mimi28 @Betty @Zelma @8little_paws @simona Thanks for the support ❤my boyfriend works in a factory and only has one day off a week and that is today but he is probably with his son and mom.

I used this book name as a prop for a gift I got the other day, then I read the actual description and bought it today, lol. Listening to this playlist on Apple Music, mostly just Mariah Carey on repeat. Meds got cut back, feeling icky again. Stupid harmful side effects. Sorry to be a Debbie Downer on here all the time. In person people are busy, busy, busy. So thankful for you guys!! Littens Rock!! 👍😎☮🤘🏼❤❤❤

BookishMarginalia Hope you feel better soon. Big hug! 7y

rubyslippersreads I Tawt I Taw A Puddy Tat! 😸 7y
Mimi28 @rubyslippersreads I knew someone would notice the phone in the background!! ???The ringer can be set to say " I tawt I taw a puddy tat! " And the paw at the base of the phone goes forward to knock at the cage and make Tweety swing. I think it says something else too. It was really fun for a while but then with the age of cordless phones and cell phones it kinda got swept to the side. I think it still works if you plug it into an outlet though 7y

The Gift has the same awesome sense of paranoia that I loved in The Sister and I again found myself looking over my own shoulder. There are several smaller twists followed by a big whopper that left me breathless. By the last twenty percent of the book you would‘ve had to prise it out of my cold dead hands to get me to put it down. Fans of The Sister will not be disappointed and if you haven‘t read that, what are you waiting for?

MyNamesParadise I actually own The Sister so I'll be sure to get to that soon! 7y
Novelgossip It was excellent hope you enjoy it! @MyNamesParadise 7y
