When She Was Me by Marlee Bush
3.75
When She Was Me is a strong and unique debut by Marlee Bush.
While I found it a little slow to start, it quickly picked up pace, and once in the second half of the book I couldn’t put it down. The alternating timelines, and POV were so cleverly done, after a while I could tell which way was up. In the best possible way.
The narration of different characters was not easily discernible, but in the case of this story I thought it worked really well. I put my trust in the author, and while I was lost for much of the story, it came to a satisfying and shocking ending, with everything falling into place - the sign of a great thriller.
I’m hesitant to say more, as this is a great one to go into blind. Suffice it to say I’ll look forward to future publications from this author.
