Stay Away from Him by Andrew DeYoung

4.0

I really enjoyed this fast paced thriller that is so easy to binge read! We have Melissa, recently divorced and new to town, quickly wrapped up in a whirlwind romance with Thomas, a doctor who some believe (and some don't believe) murdered his ex-wife. Thomas gave me the ick REAL QUICK with his love bombing. I just wanted to shake Melissa and be like "girl, NO!" However, I really liked the structure of this book with the ex-wife's journal entries and recordings from Thomas' therapy sessions interspersed throughout. Kept me on my toes trying to figure out who the killer was, and definitely had me going, "Oh it's this person. No wait, it's this person. No wait..." Definitely worth checking out! Thank you to NetGalley, the publisher, and the author for an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.
