That's Not My Name
by Megan Lally
dark
mysterious
tense
fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
Plot
This is one of those books where because of the title and synopsis you know that "Mary" is not her name, but you don't know what her name is and you don't exactly know what's going on especially when the viewpoint of Drew is part of the narrative. The author creates dread to the point where you can't put the book down because you want to figure it out. I enjoyed the characters. Drew and "Mary" are strong-willed, "Mary's Father" is so creepy, and I felt that Drew's friends added the appropriate amount of comedic relief. I do think that some of this premise required me to suspend my belief. I feel like a lot of this book would have fallen through if it were a movie or show because visually it'd be easy to figure out.
