Such an incredible read. I picked it up and did not set it back down until it was done. I finished in just a few hours. Such a sad and tragic tale with a satisfying ending. Women supporting women, the fight to get justice. I love every moment of it

This book offered an intriguing perspective I hadn't read from before! Unfortunately, the audiobook narrator didn't offer much distinction between the different character POV's on top of a disorganized timeline. There also wasn't any mysterious or thrilling elements to the plot either which made it all rather dull. What seemed to be a story full of potential turned out to primarily be a "day in the life" of a serial killer with some body-horror thrown in to amp up the intensity.

Every thriller reader knows the struggle of being drawn in been a really compelling premise, only to be let down. Ask for Andrea is not one of those books! I've read 2 books by this author so far, and she has delivered each time! 

I really love this story's version of what happens after we die. 

Looking forward to reading more from this author!
