𝐓𝐢𝐭𝐥𝐞: It Should Have Been You by Andrea Mara
𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐫𝐞: Thriller
𝐏𝐮𝐛 𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐞: January 13, 2026 (Re-release)
🇮🇪 Dublin, Ireland
🙌 Multiple POV
🍼 Postpartum Depression
💔 Spousal Infidelity
Everyone is crazy, everyone is cheating, and you won't know who to trust! This book is nonstop insanity from beginning to end! I loved how each piece of the puzzle slowly fell into place and how each of the characters stories intermingled. I was so stressed out, I almost felt like I was being gaslit with Susan! The different POV are done perfectly to keep you on edge!
If you're looking for a thriller filled with betrayals that will keep you on your toes until the end, If Should Have Been You is the perfect addition to your TBR.
Thank you so much Viking Books and NetGalley for the digital review copy.

This was definitely a page turner!
But I found parts of the book to be unrealistic and the ending was soo unrealistic! It was laughable.
The writing felt immature and the characters lacked depth or even anything that made them a character.
The short chapters did keep me hooked but by the end I didn't care anymore and the characters were annoying.
It's enjoyable but the later chapters should've been chopped.
