I really enjoy Emily Bleeker‘s books and this is no exception. Angela gets picked to intern on a very popular YouTube channel, which follows a family on their regular adventures. However, the family isn‘t exactly as they seem and neither is Angela. They both have secrets they want to hide. This is also on Kindle Unlimited and is a great, quick read.

Not intensely suspenseful, but yet still so good! I wasn‘t a big fan of the plot going in, but she always delivers! Something about her writing just makes it so worth it.

⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 this book was not what I expected. Very unlike her other novels (my bad for not reading the description first!) this novel was creepy. If you‘re into slightly disturbing thrillers, this one‘s for you!

I‘m rounding up a bit with this one- I did enjoy this fast-paced read. It‘s a little implausible while also taking some expected turns to the plot, there are also surprises along the way... Honestly, this book gave me the same feeling as getting sucked into a Lifetime movie... it‘s my first experience with the author, but don‘t be my last! Thanks, #NetGalley!

Tara was adopted by her very controlling mother when she was a little girl. One of her only joys is watching videos of the Feely‘s on YouTube. The Feely‘s are the perfect family & when they post a video seeking an intern, Tara jumps at this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The only problem, how is Tara supposed to get away from Mother?

Although relatively entertaining, it didn‘t feel as suspenseful as I was expecting & it was pretty predicable.

Good morning!

I‘m beginning this snowy, cold morning with fresh, out of the oven mini croissants, coffee, and an arc from NetGalley.
