An Anonymous Girl

Greer Hendricks

3.65 AVERAGE


This book was gripping till the end! I loved that it had two narrators, one a psychiatrist with suspicious motives and the other a seemingly innocent participant in a research study. Both voices were distinct and felt very authentic. The creepiness was everywhere and everyone was suspect. Exactly the kind of mystery I love.

Great book! I could not put it down.

Not as crazy as the first book by these two but still a gripping tale.

Plot or Character Driven: A mix

Really 3.75. It was a good psychological thriller, but a little predictable.

Anonymous Girl may be fiction, but it reveals a raw truth: those scarred by mental anguish and societal injustice often find themselves irresistibly drawn to roles that promise healing of these very same wounds. They enter these fields believing they’ve crossed the line from victim to savior, but the truth about healing is that it’s not a checkbox to be ticked off—it’s an endless tango of overcoming and relapsing. Their drive to help others often mirrors their unresolved battles, a subconscious attempt to make sense of their own pain.

What we label "a calling to help others" is frequently a cloak that conceals the blurring of the line between the healer and the hurting.

Fast paced thriller with all the right twists and turns.

This book was really hard to get into until about page 200 and kept me engaged the whole time. At first it was confusing that they were from two different perspectives and that the doctor talked in third person about herself. But in the end it wasn’t too bad.

This works better if you don't think too much about the odds of all of the people/events that come together actually intersecting and just go along for the ride. I felt it broadcast all of its "surprises" pretty badly, and was really waiting for an ending that somehow made all those impractical coincidences make sense, which left me feeling even more let down than figuring out the twists along the way.
