APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
With You Are Not Alone, Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen—the genius writing team behind The Wife Between Us—create a whole new subgenre: millennial noir. Their mystery-thriller revolves around Shay, a socially awkward and painfully lonely young woman who’s obsessed with statistics. From her dead-end job to her unrequited crush, Shay’s entire world is in shambles…until she meets Cassandra and Jane, two beautiful, successful sisters who invite her into their tight circle of friends. But even as Shay’s social outlook improves, we could sense something sinister creeping in. Each head-spinning plot twist pulled us deeper into Cassandra and Jane’s world of glamour and manipulation and caused us to question who was innocent and who was evil. With its breakneck pace and clever explorations into the role of data in our lives, You Are Not Alone is the ultimate thriller about 21st-century life—and death.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
At the start of this entertaining yet shallow psychological thriller from bestsellers Hendricks and Pekkanen (The Wife Between Us), lonely temp Shay Miller watches in horror as a stranger, Amanda Evinger, commits suicide by throwing herself off a Manhattan subway platform in front of a moving train. The distraught Shay, who becomes fixated on Amanda, tracks down the young woman's address and shows up at her memorial service. Shay's presence attracts the attention of glamorous sisters Jane and Cassandra Moore, whose inner circle of women included Amanda. Jane and Cassandra worry that somehow Amanda confessed to Shay that the women are involved in a kind of vigilante justice in which they inflict revenge on people who may have wronged one of them. Though the story doesn't delve deep into the characters, the strong plot generates plenty of tension as the sisters befriend Shay and set about remaking her life all the better to spy on her. Though not up to the standard of the authors' previous books, this one's sure to please suspense fans.
Customer Reviews
Just ok compared to others from these writers
I have read multiple books from this pair and had loved them all. For me, this one was just ok though. It was hard to keep up with so many different characters at once at times. The story line also felt to move a bit slower. It wasn’t bad, but it also wasn’t great.
Twisty Turny
Oooooh this one kept me on my toes! I spent the first half confused about all the female names & who was who lol, but it all came together so beautifully. Loved it!!!!
2.5 stars if possible
I’m a big fan of both of the authors previous read the wife between us, 10/10 recommend. However I found this book hard to get through the twist was predictable and underwhelming. I wish the book had the twist in the middle and the end was more of a resolution. Instead we are left with a lot of hanging questions and quick button ups. I look forward to reading the next book they put out though.
