So addicting. I purchased this book from BOTM and anticipated its arrival. After reading The Wife Between Us earlier this year, I knew I’d love this novel. I was not disappointed. The split narrative, the twists and turns, and the psychological power plays made this novel amazing.
I liked it! I was drawn in right away! I started not listening as closely about half way through but got interested again when Thomas became more involved in the story. The 3 stars were due to it being more drawn out than it maybe needed to be. The author paid great attention to detail, it was good.
Was all ready to give this book 4 stars until I read the ending. It just put me off. But it is an entertaining read for the most part. A few sections of the book had a bit of an irritating style to read but the reasoning behind it is good. It is one of those quick reads that is exciting but you forget a month later.
Holy crap! I loved The Wife Between Us but this, for me, was even better. Once again Hendricks and Pekkanen bring us a twisty thriller, told from 2 opposing points of view. I love the way the story progresses bit by bit through each chapter as it alternates points of view, giving you a bit more information each time. These ladies are making quite the name for themselves with this. You're kept on your toes throughout the book, never truly knowing which character you can trust or what their true motives are. Divided into parts, each one ends with a shocker, changing what I thought I knew! And that ending! Loved it and it fit in perfectly with the rest of the novel. Great read and I highly recommend it. I cannot wait for what they bring us next! Thanks so much to Netgalley for providing the digital ARC. This is going to be a big hit for 2019 when it comes out in January!

This is the best book I have read so far since getting back into reading. The pacing is so good, I listened to it on audiobook and found myself NEEDING to keep hearing what was going to happen next. I loved it so much I 1000% am going to buy a hardcopy of it. The characters are so well written and I think the story is so so interesting. I love!!

2.5 really. Pretty good thriller. I love psychoanalysis. I could see myself being the crazy therapist, alas.
5 Stars + A quick note: LOVED!!! KILLER. My heart will never be back to normal. One of the most intelligent Mind-Bending "cat-and-mouse game" psychological thrillers I have ever read! It is so realistic and scary. This is one cool and collected manipulative chick.
The Wife Between Us is on my Top Books of 2018 and AN ANONYMOUS GIRL will definitely be topping my Top Books of 2019! An original. A classic. Addictive. Nerve-racking. Intense. Supercharged!! Pre-Order this one NOW. These gals are "on fire."
As other bloggers have mentioned. I have no business jumping ahead to 2019 books when I have about 100 ARCs on my shelf now and reviews past due. However, this is one (temptation) worth moving to the top. Nights without sleep - worth it. Outstanding!
Thank you St. Martin's Press and #NetGalley for an early reading copy.
I have pre-0rdered the hardcover to go with my TWBU 2018 copy. The most beautiful covers. My full review to follow.
