It Should Have Been You by Andrea Mara
3.0
It was a good read. I don’t think I’m a fan of the constant POV change style with Mara’s writing but it does keep you wanting to read. So you can find out what happened. I feel the changes can almost take you out of the story as you are always changing the scenery in your head and trying to link everything together. For me it also adds to forgetting what has happened int he story. You read something that may be an important piece of information but because the POV changes every chapter, by the time you have got back round to that point, Ive forgotten it even happened.
As now I have read two of Mara’s books. I feel her writing style is just load off everything that is suspicious for the entire book, then in the second to last chapter wrap everything up in a way that is completely left field, and everyone gets a happy ending in the last chapter. It’s almost disappointing. No one got what they deserved I feel.
With that being said, it was a good story and a unique way for the plots to all align. I did enjoy the book but for some reason when a book mentioned too much social media or TikTok specifically, I like it a little less.
