Before I Say I Do by Vicki Bradley

3.0

This was definitely a psychological thriller like no other, with its dark and twisty turns.

Julia Talbot is about to get married to the love of her life, until she walks down the aisle to find him missing. A simple case of the groom having second thoughts quickly spirals into something much deeper and darker. Everyone becomes a suspect and time is running out to find the missing groom.

I enjoyed the dual perspective between Julia Talbot and Detective Alana Loxton. It was interesting to see both perspectives side by side. I also enjoyed the varying lengths of chapters because they only added suspense. However, I found this really hard to get into and wasn’t entirely bothered by what happened. It was only in the second half that the plot really picked up and I felt compelled to finish it. It ended up being a lot darker than I thought and some of it just didn’t sit right with me.
