Publisher's summary

The perfect life? Or the perfect lie?

When Regi moves into her new house share, she's ready for a clean slate. A new home. A new routine. A new identity....

Desperate to escape the shadow of her past that follows her everywhere she goes, Regi finds the ideal distraction in the perfect lives of others on social media.

But as innocent scrolling turns into an unhealthy obsession, Regi will soon learn that seeking perfection comes at a price....

A gripping psychological suspense from the international best-selling author of The Daughter in Law. Perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell, K L Slater and Jackie Kabler.

I liked it but without spoilers felt it we t left a few times. not sure I would have bought it had I known the true subject manner. that being said. narration was very pleasant as you know a narrator can make or break a book

Absolutely 5/5 stars

That ending was so clever! And the themes and assumptions that this book plays with— also very clever. I totally thought of Reggie as a certain unfortunate soul… but!!!
I do wish that this book did have a bit of trigger warning. So here I will do the honors: abuse, rape, trauma, loss, ocd, mental illness, depression.

what a study in grief!

worthwhile to hear but what a study in grief and pain and the idea that not everything is fixable. not what you expect, though.

So Good!

I never caught on and usually do! Toward the end, I thought there was a character that really didn’t belong. I thought it was filled. I was so wrong!
Great read!

head spinning

the last few chapters were confusing. it was like an entirely different story until one sentence tied it all together, but had to really think about that one sentence to understand.

Didn't see that coming

Well written and read. I enjoyed the listen. It stalled, got complicated and just when I was thinking about archiving this one, it picks up and I was determined to finish the book. I'm glad I did. Recommend this one.

suspenseful but terrible ending

I couldn't wait to get to the end because it was so suspenseful and interesting. But then the ending absolutely made no sense and didn't tie to the story at all. I was so mad that I wasted my time.
