That’s Not My Name by Megan Lally 

I didn’t think I would enjoy this as much as I did! I stayed up until 1am to finish it. Total page turner. Told in dual perspectives. The suspense was executed so well. I went into this one blindly and I’m glad I did. Fast paced. Engaging. Intense. Emotional. Captivating. Easy read. I did not guess the ending at all. In fact, I was very wrong. This is a book you can totally finish in one day. 

Amazing debut from the author! 4 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
