Welcome to Litsy!

This was fairly entertaining and I was interested in understanding who was who, whether the Olivia who returned was really the kidnapped Olivia, and how the two storylines connected. The writing felt repetitive, with a weird, unnecessary plot device that I didn‘t care for and found extremely cringy. I didn‘t find the characters believable; they were almost cartoonishly ridiculous in both their cruelty and delusion. Be ready to suspend disbelief!

Welp. I joined another book box. 🙃🤣😱🫣

Aardvark has so many fun, weird, left of center picks, and the last few months of BOTM have been a bit of a let down. I‘m planning on hanging on to BOTM at least til I hit BFF status, then I‘ll feel less need not to skip. But I‘m hoping Aardvark may be a strong alternative for this self-proclaimed thriller/horror girlie.

I got another title too but I‘m hoping to get it signed this weekend. 🤞🏻🤩

A twisty suspense novel that could get over the top at times but was a fun ride to go on. Caitlin‘s sister, Olivia, was kidnapped but then returns home 16 years later. Although Caitlin has questions and doubts about her sister, no one else seems to. It unravels from there.

The writing was compulsive and I was drawn in from the first chapter. I loved questioning everything with Caitlin and figuring out the truth.

These are the books my hubby picked up at Thrillerfest XX the thriller writers conference he attended. So many new books to read 🤪

This book seriously messed with my head in the best way. It was a twisty, intense psychological thriller that kept me on edge the whole time. The relationship between Caitlin and this maybe-Olivia was so tense and suspenseful it gave me chills.
Also, I don't quite know how I feel about the twisted nature of Elinor and her brother's relationship. It was disturbing in the exact way you would want a psychological thriller to be. I highly recommend!
