Just finished this Audiobook - Never Saw Me Coming by Vera Kurlan. The premise sounded so fascinating - a psychology professor gathers a group of young psychopaths to participate in a study while attending college at Adams in DC. And then one of them is found murdered. And then another. Sounds good, right? Plus, it was being narrated by Brittany Pressley so I already knew the narration would be on point. What I was unprepared for was how much I was going to LOVE the MC - Chloe. She is part of the psychopath study, but really, she just agreed to be part of it so that she could gain entry to the college where the guy who wronged her years ago attends because she plans to stalk and kill him. Only problem is, someone is stalking and trying to kill her. This doesn't scare her though, it simply annoys the fuck out of her that someone keeps distracting her from her own murderous plans. Chloe is smart, flawed, tough, girly, promiscuous, sarcastic, and violent - everything I need in a thriller heroine. An enthusiastic 5 Stars + a spot on my Best of 2021 list AND a spot on my All Time Favorite Reads list. I'll be watching out for this author.
