It's One of Us
by J.T. Ellison
Why this book took me nearly two weeks to read I'll never know! It's long, but not that long and honestly it is pretty unputdownable (maybe for people who don't have a wild toddler who doesn't sleep and a 60-hour a week job - HA - but I digress).
Overall, this one was super fun. It was wholly original - we've all read the "I found a serial killer in my family by doing one of those DNA tests" storyline, but it was superbly executed.
I literally could.not.trust.anyone. Like, anyone. I kept questioning everything and loved how the layers just kept going... and going... and going. It was fascinating!!
The characters had so much history and so much backstory. They were complex and SO real.
My heart ached for Olivia and for anyone who is triggered by miscarriage, infertility, etc., this may be one to skip. It was a huge focal point of the book and it was incredibly emotional.
J.T. Ellison is an excellent writer and this story really leapt from the pages for me. There were pieces I maybe sort of guessed, but it's hard to say if that's because I figured it out or if Ellison just threw me off so much that I ran literally any and every scenario through my head at some point.
Definitely a fun one and definitely one I recommend - assuming you can handle the trigger warnings!!
Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for the copy.
