Best book I’ve read so far this year! The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer is incredible. I felt like I was in Mara’s shoes, unable to tell what was real and what was in her head. And Noah is my new Book Boyfriend so quadruple points for setting my expectations even higher with this one! I can’t wait to read the rest of the trilogy :D

This was my second time reading this book, but I didn’t remember anything so I’m counting it as my first time. I really liked it! It was very 2000s and a little confusing at times, but I was very captivated by the plot and will be reading the next book ASAP!
