THRILLER - MYSTERY
Two minutes sooner, two minutes later....it would have made a difference.
Two minutes sooner, two minutes later....it would have saved the horrible pain.
Two minutes sooner, two minutes later....it would have saved Jacob's life.
I LET YOU GO takes off like a speeding train and doesn't stop with the suspense until the last page.

I listened to I Let You Go, another epic thriller with unanticipated twists, by Clare Mackintosh. A young boy dies when he runs into the road after his mother lets go of his hand. A mother hopes to evade her trauma by starting over. The suspense and unexpected extend throughout the novel. Mackintosh is excellent author of her genre. 4 stars
pickThis was my #BookSpin pick for October! I didn‘t write a review after reading it, but I enjoyed it for the most part. It was a bit slow at times, but I‘m happy to have finally read it! 4⭐️ @TheAromaofBooks
pickStarted off slow to medium pacer and then the plot twists and turns so I couldn‘t put it down. Told in different POV‘s in such a way that we don‘t always know who is talking. A boy has been killed in a hit and run accident. The police have no clues for a long time and then the “truths” come out layer by layer. Great character development, vivid imagery, not for the faint of heart.
so-soThe story here had potential, but it ended up being a fairly average thriller. The big twist was pretty predictable and there were several side plots that went nowhere.
⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
pickMacIntosh writes in a way that causes visceral reactions. My emotions were running rampant during this book. It really should come with a warning; I almost threw my phone! That being said, the 🤯 twists that everyone told me about? I figured them out. Even before I knew there were more I was thinking of twists because the previous ones were just ...okay. So that gets a lacklustre meh from me, but the storyline was harsh, and emotional.
⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2
Clare Mackintosh just announced her new book! Man, I can‘t wait. I‘ve been a huge fan of hers since that masterpiece “I Let You Go.” Sooooooo excited!!!
pickFinished book 4 last night 👊👊
I actually didn't think I would like this one. It started off a bit slow but once it picked up....wow! This was incredible to listen to and so hard to put down. I would highly recommend it, but it isn't an easy one.
TW: domestic violence, rape

so-soI know I‘m in the minority but I thought this book was very mediocre, full of flat characters and cliches. I can‘t say more about the things I disliked without spoilers, and this is a book it‘s best to go into blind. It was a quick read for the beach.

pickThis book started off as a slow burn which turned into a raging fire... I couldn‘t put it down once I got about halfway through and has an ending I never saw coming!!
“Nobody‘s ever laid on their death bed wishing they had spent more time at work,”
He‘s been a big fish in a small pond for a long time, and now he‘s swimming with the sharks
#Deweys24HourReadathon has officially started, and I‘m digging into this audiobook before I crash! I got lots of reading done during my shift last night for #24B4Monday but now I‘m exhausted. 😴🥱
pickI really liked this book! Great twists and very atmospheric. This is the 2nd Clare Mackintosh book I have read and enjoyed both. Well done. 4⭐️

1)a- I've dyed my hair every color except black and green
b- I have a vocal range from 1st Soprano all the way to tenor
c- When speaking to people with accents I (unintentionally) mimic it back after a few minutes
2) Catcher in the Rye. Seriously thought my English teacher hated me with how slowly we worked through it, and I just hated it so bad.
3)Yes! Jenny Lawson & Grace Helbig
4)Probs too cold, you can always layer
Soooooo.... long story short, my amazon order is being held at the post office because I ordered a pitch fork, and they won't deliver it 😂😂😂😂 oh boy.
But besides that, this book is pretty good so far!!
pickThis is the first book I‘ve read by Clare Mackintosh and I immediately added her others to my holds list as soon as I finished it. The twist in the middle made me stop reading and gasp out loud. So good! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Nothing like a book by the pool! Enjoying this one so far. ☀️ ❤️

This psychological-thriller kicks off with a rain-soaked road accident that sets the book‘s events into motion.
This is one of my favorites from this genre (a genre that I have a real feeling of ennui with at the mo!) The characters are well-developed, it has a really tense ominous feeling throughout, and a good couple of twists.
pick4.5/5 🌟
This book will make you angry, broke your heart and make you angry again. The ending was nothing like the first few pages of the book. I felt like I was reading a different story but it all made sense after part 1.
This book was a rollercoaster of a read and one I highly recommend.
Trigger warning for rape and abuse.
This book is heartbreaking 😭
I'm on chapter 13. It's starting to get more and more interesting. I can't wait to know what happened that day.
Thank you so much Misty @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks I love the bookmark and can‘t wait to read the book. It‘s been on my list for a while. Such a great start to my birthday week, my first present and I was off today and spent all day reading!! ❤️📚 #litsylove #itsmybirthdayandillreadifiwantto

MY REVIEW: https://bit.ly/2y7LEWr
Alternating POVs surrounding a domestic abuse survivor and a hit and run accident. It was at times infuriating, suspenseful, sympathetic, but overall, the story was just okay for me. 3/5
pickWow! Is all I can say regarding this book..while the first part was slow going part 2 had the twists and roller coaster ride all the way to the last page...great writing and definitely worth the late night finish!
