Thank you to Lake Union Publishing and NetGalley for this advanced reader copy!
I enjoyed reading The Hook - an engaging storyline following the lives of three women who take a risk to get revenge against those who've wronged them. I particularly enjoyed the character development of Katherine, our primary narrator, and the way the story races towards the end as we begin to unravel the many mysteries that have built up. I appreciated the racial diversity and LGBT+ representation in the characters.
