The Main Character
by Jaclyn Goldis
Disclosure: I received an ARC of this novel from Netgalley, however all opinions are my own.
If you're looking for something original, then The Main Character is for you. I picked this book because the premise was intriguing and I hadn't read anything like this before, I wanted an original story that could give me something different.
Rory is hired by an author to be a main character. This means she's the new muse of Ginevra Ex and Ginevra will spend time learning about Rory's life in order to turn her into a character in Ex's next novel. When the interviewing is complete, Ginevra books Rory aboard the Orient Express (yes, THAT Orient Express). While Rory thinks this will be a trip for just her, she is shocked to find that her brother, her best friend, and her ex are all aboard the train as well.
This twisty murder mystery slowly builds up the suspense while this group travels to places that I've only dreamed of, and everyone has secrets. I loved being able to explore these places with the group while also trying to figure out exactly what everyone is hiding. I didn't guess the end until right before it happened, which I loved, and the explanations for what went down definitely locked this novel in as a great read.
I highly recommend this novel, especially if you're traveling.
