Killing Me Softly by Nicci French
3.0
My family is full of huge Nicci French fans. Especially my mom. She has almost every book from Nicci French. That why I also own four Nicci French books but I have only read one. So that’s why in this vacation I decided to read another Nicci French novel. ‘Killing me softly’ was the one I picked first.
‘Killing me softly’ is a story about Alice. Alice is a scientist who works on the development of a new anticonception medicin. Alice lives an easy life and lives with her boyfriend Jake. Alice has a group of friends she has known forever and everything seems to work out perfectly. Jake is an amazing and sweet guy and Alice and Jake are very happy together. But then, one day, Alice sees Adam standing on the other side of the road. There eyes meet and instantly Alice and Adam are pulled together. Alice and Adam start an intense affaire and soon Alice leaves her live with Jake behind and moves in with Adam. But soon after Alice leaves her old life behind, she finds out that an intense and obsessive relationship isn’t perfect. Adam isn’t who he seems to be and soon Alice doesn’t know how to get her freedom back.
‘Killing me softly’ is an intense and sometimes really scary and strange story. In the beginning I didn’t really get the story. I don’t understand how people can lie and manipulate to the people they love, so it was hard for me to relate to the characters. And it was going very fast. But soon I became fascinated by the strange relationship between Alice and Adam. This story is really a thriller and keeps you fascinated until the end.
I give ‘Killing me softly’ three stars and look forward to reading another Nicci French novel.
