ââââ 4-Star Review
I just finished reading Dead Girls Book Club and WOW⌠this one pulled me in fast and didnât let go.
Amelia is such a relatable character in the beginningâlonely, overlooked, and desperate for connection. You really feel that emotional gap in her marriage, which makes her decisions feel believable even when youâre screaming âdonât do it!â
The tension builds slowly at first, but once the parallels between her husbandâs cases and her mysterious book club start stacking up, the unease becomes impossible to ignore. I loved how the story played with trust, obsession, and that creeping feeling that something isnât right⌠but you canât quite prove it.
The twists werenât over-the-top, but they were satisfying and unsettling in the best way. Itâs more of a slow-burn psychological thriller than nonstop action, which made the payoff feel earned.
â Why not 5 stars?
I wanted just a little more depth from some of the side characters and maybe one extra shock moment at the end. But overall, it was absolutely worth the read.
