Last one of the year! Listened to this on audiobook during some long car rides over the holidays and finished it up at home.
Was totally hooked to this twisty, dark, and at more than one moment, disturbing suspense/thriller about two women who come into each other’s lives through sheer happenstance - finding out that they are “birthday twins” while out celebrating their 45th birthday, at the same bar.
Josie convinces famous podcaster Alix to do a pod about their lives as “birthday twins” and the undertaking Josie claims she is making to change her life for the better.
This book really held my attention as it wove and dipped through these two women’s lives. I don’t want to give anything away, just suffice to say that by the end my mind was reeling. I’ll be thinking about this one for a while!
