Summary
Surely we all lie a little bit online...don't we?
The gripping psychological thriller that explores the darker side of social media, perfect for fans of The Girl Before and Friend Request.
Have you ever wanted to reinvent yourself? Have you ever lied about who you are to get more likes? Have you ever followed someone online who you think is perfect? Meet Holly. Social media sensation. The face of clean eating. Everyone loves her. Everyone wants to be her.
But when Holly is attacked by a man she's only just met, her life starts to spiral out of control. He seemed to know her - but she doesn't know him. What if Holly isn't who she seems to be? What if Holly's living a lie?

Excellent, except the end
I had become so disillusioned with "psychological thrillers" and started this book expecting an angst ridden wimpy protagonist making stupid decisions. So was delighted there was none of that nonsense in this book! I couldn't put this one down.
The main character is a deeply flawed woman portrayed in a very credible and relatable way. Despite her flaws and mistakes, I quite liked her and cared what happened to her. Excellent job author!
But oh the ending - I hated it. All that investment in Holly's twisted journey blinked away in a paragraph. Noooooo! I've been cheated! Dropped a star for that reason, but did thoroughly enjoy this dark twisted tale.

Holly has the perfect online life
Holly has the perfect online life with 1000s of followers but what happens when a follower thinks its real?!
With out giving away any secrets to the story I found this audio good to listen to and it did grip me. It's basically about someone who dies from following Holly's health posts and then Holly is attacked.
This story followers her finding out why she was attacked before it's to late. I feel like the book could of been a little more fast in some parts, the twist at the end is slightly predictable but is lift on a slight cliff hanger but I feel its obvious what happens after it as you get to know the character very well and what they crave so I couldn't see another book following on from this.
The narrator is actually really good and will be looking for books with her voice in the future. It is a lot like the book 'friend request' but would say this one is better.

A good listen
I enjoyed this book, it brought up some really interested and relevant issues, it was just missing something to make it a book I was desperate to finish

worth a listen
Really enjoyed this book. was a bit skeptical about it at the start but ended up gripped by the twist and turns. very well written to show the impact of social.media and mental health and how the both can effect each other.

Not great
I didn't manage to get even halfway. The writing style is pretty sophomoric. The present-tense format somehow fails to make the events immediate and the first person observations are shallow and vaccuous.
The narration is fine and well paced, though her attempts at a male voice are kind of comical, especially when she's supposed to be voicing a handsome, mysterious stranger and she sounds like a teenager doing an impression of her dad.
Didn't get on with it at all.

Don't waste your time.
Sheesh, what a complete waste of my hours.
No likeable characters, lacks interesting twists and turns. Wouldn't categorize is as a 'thriller'...very drawn out and eyerollingly frustrating.

Not for me
I found the two main characters thoroughly unlikable. I must have misread the book details or I wouldn’t have chosen it as I’m entirely uninterested in the premise the story is built around.
