I'm hoping to read this one soon. I have enjoyed Jewell's writing in the past, so I'm really looking forward to it.
OH MY GOD! I Just finished & my mind is BLOWN! I couldn’t stop reading 😂 5 star read through & through… I don’t think I’ve read anything like it! I’m so excited to see everyone’s thoughts!
I'm about 2/3 through it now. Hope to finish today or tomorrow.
Another one with a long hold!! I can not accomplish any of my reads lol
6% of the way in. Off to a great start!

My library has certain books that they call "too hot to hold" and they are on a special shelf in the library dedicated to really popular books with long holds. They take a few copies and put them on that shelf instead of giving them out to people with holds. So, even if there are 100 holds on a book, there may still be a copy available if you go into the library to get it off the shelf. They are listed online for us, so we can even check to see which library has a copy available. I get quite a few of my books this way.
Finished! Wow! Unique, suspenseful…great read. 5 stars for ne
I just got this one today and after reading how much everyone is liking it I’m so excited to jump in. Between this and the other one I’m reading, I’m not sure I’m going to be able to get much done.
I really enjoyed this one
This book had me binge reading into the wee hours. I gave it 5 stars.
I know it’s late but I finally got the book and just finished. I’m totally baffled by this bizarre story. I don’t really understand what author is trying to accomplish here and what her stance is on the subject matter, blaming victims and glorifying wrongdoers?! 🤷♀️None of it was pleasant.
⭐️⭐️ from me

Lisa Jewell returns with a scintillating new psychological thriller about a woman who finds herself the subject of her own popular true crime podcast.
Celebrating her forty-fifth birthday at her local pub, popular podcaster Alix Summers crosses paths with an unassuming woman called Josie Fair. Josie, it turns out, is also celebrating her forty-fifth birthday. They are, in fact, birthday twins.
A few days later, Alix and Josie bump into each other again, this time outside Alix’s children’s school. Josie has been listening to Alix’s podcasts and thinks she might be an interesting subject for her series. She is, she tells Alix, on the cusp of great changes in her life.
Josie’s life appears to be strange and complicated, and although Alix finds her unsettling, she can’t quite resist the temptation to keep making the podcast. Slowly she starts to realise that Josie has been hiding some very dark secrets, and before she knows it, Josie has inveigled her way into Alix’s life—and into her home.
But, as quickly as she arrived, Josie disappears. Only then does Alix discover that Josie has left a terrible and terrifying legacy in her wake, and that Alix has become the subject of her own true crime podcast, with her life and her family’s lives under mortal threat.
Who is Josie Fair? And what has she done?
