It Should Have Been You
by Andrea Mara
Andrea Mara never misses—and It Should Have Been You proves just how versatile her thrillers can be. This one opens with a scenario that feels almost comical, then immediately slams you with an all-too-relatable sense of dread. It’s lighter in tone than her usual parenting-centered nightmares, but no less addictive.
The narrative shifts felt slightly fragmented in the middle, but it pulled itself together beautifully in the final third. I flew through the last chapters like I was binge-watching a favourite TV series. The twists are clever, the tension well-paced, and while some moments felt heightened or even far-fetched, they always landed thanks to the emotional undertow.
If you like your thrillers fast, smart, and full of tangled secrets—this one's a must.
