Ari’s phone begins predicating the future, and no, unfortunately it’s not the winning lottery numbers. It’s the kind of notifications nobody wants. Each message is a premonition of the death of a loved one. And each time Ari, stops and saves a life , a new message and premonition more brutal than the last appears.

What had me most relatable to Ari, wasn’t what was going on with her phone , it was her life. Ari is a mother dealing with terrible migraines and a family, meanwhile her phone is throwing one nightmare at her after another. Ice Packs? Meds? Pain? Absolutely no rest for the weary. GIRL I FEEL YA!!  At times I felt like hey, is this me were talking about🤣

Every time there was another drop I was immediately on edge wondering who was going to be next on the clip. It’s constant tension as Ari figures out what’s happening before the warnings cost her literally everything!

This was such a fun, twisted read. If you enjoy psychological suspense with a supernatural-techy twist this is for you!

“Phantom Drop” by Cori Nevruz is unique, intense, and suspenseful, and it had me hooked from the very beginning. I really liked this storyline! There were plenty of twists and tension that kept me wanting to know what would happen next. I flew through this one and read it in one sitting because I seriously couldn’t put it down! It’s a fast paced, gripping read that kept me on the edge of my seat. I’m definitely excited to read more from Cori Nevruz!

Book ReviewARC⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Phantom Drop by Cori Nevruz Release date: October 27, 2026

If a book can make me paranoid about my own phone while simultaneously making me question reality, I’d say it did its job pretty damn well. Thanks to Cori Nevruz and Inside Story for the ARC.

Release date 27th October

My rating excellent ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

This outstanding supernatural psychological thriller completely held me spellbound; I was totally captivated by its intensity.

Ari inherits her aunts beach house in North Carolina, and she and her family move in from their home in Chicago ti make a much needed fresh start.

Soon after Ari saves a woman's life, she starts receiving phantom drops on her phone predicting the death of a loved one. Each time she prevents one fatal event, she receives another drop, with each one becoming more impossible to stop.

As the threatening messages escalate, Ari becomes increasingly determined to uncover the truth behind them in order to protect her loved ones, herself, and her sanity.

She is desperate for answers and turns to her best friend for help, hoping she believes her disturbing story.

I was thoroughly captivated by this compelling thriller and greatly admire Cori's writing style and the intricately woven storyline.
