Just One Look by Lindsay Cameron
3.0
3.5 stars
Wow. What a wild ride. I have so many thoughts and feelings on this novel, where do I even start?
I guess I’ll go from the beginning — a few chapters in, and I wasn’t sold. It didn’t feel believable, it didn’t feel reasonable, and the main character wasn’t someone I really liked. But that’s kind of the point of fiction, right? I usually don’t pick up this sort of genre (I’m a fantasy kind of gal) but the cover, premise, and beautiful display at Barnes & Noble tempted me.
As we went further into the novel, I was hooked. Captivated in a trashy, reality show kind of way. I wouldn’t necessarily call this the best writing I’ve ever read, but damn did Cameron make it hard to put the novel down.
Some parts of the plot I saw while others were a complete surprise. It was a wild time having such a wild main character (you’ll see what I mean) and made it that much more fun and easier to love. At the end of the novel, I couldn’t even decide who I was rooting for!
This was a fun read, by no means the best thriller I’ve ever read, but it really gets the job done in pulling you in & refusing to let you go. Finished her in four days!
