Are You Sara? by S.C. Lalli
3.0
Thanks to William Morrow & Company for this ARC!
Sara Bhaduri is a law student and Sarah Ellis is an undergraduate Pre-Med student. Both getting Rides, but both took the wrong car. Now one Sarah is dead, and the other is questioning if it was supposed to be her that was dead?
We follow Sara as she tries to figure out who killed Sarah Ellis. Ellis was an undergraduate at the same university that Sara was getting her law degree from. Was the person who strangled Ellis meaning to strangle Sara? That is what she is thinking. She feels as though she is being followed at various points. Everyone is saying that Ellis was on the wrong side of town buying drugs, but we know that wasn't the case. Was it this mysterious man that Sara keeps alluring to and missing his calls? Was it Ellis' ex boyfriend? Was it a random person on the street? The premise to this story is every woman's nightmare. Did the Ride driver do it? We all get nervous taking rides from apps, but especially when we are alone.
I think that there were too many things happening in the story for it to be scary to me. Sara was dealing with sketchy lawyers while also going to the same university and living in the same location that Ellis was killed. It was a quick read that I devoured, but I think that it just wasn't a favorite of mine. It seemed obvious at points and then it just felt like the author was just adding more plot line just to add them. I think that others may enjoy this, it just wasn't a favorite of mine.
