Friend Request: The most addictive psychological thriller you'll read this year

Product Information

So imagine my surprise when this book revealed itself to me as a grounded, smart, nail-biting thriller with a powerfully dark conclusion. I'm not even sure which side of the story had me more engrossed as they both certainly kept the pages turning looking for answers.

It reminds me why I decided to delete my personal account, the idea of people you barely know getting such a personal glimpse into your inner sanctum and keeping in contact with everyone you ever met from high school days seems an odd thing and the perfect basis for a revenge style vendetta so I did quite enjoy the storyline. Flashing back twenty-five years prior, Maria Weston is the new girl in school, and she isn't exactly well liked. Even though I was disappointed I still think this would be a good book if you don’t normally read this genre. Memories come flooding to the surface of dark secrets kept; the night that would change all their lives forever. For some reason right now I am just absolutely loving these new British authors and their psychological thrillers!

Thank you to NetGalley, Grand Central Publishing and Laura Marshall for an ARC of this novel in exchange for an honest review.

Odd, how you spend five years going to the same place every day, and then it’s over, you never go there again. As for the ending to this one, I thought the author did a great job keeping it a believable outcome overall while adding in a few extra little twists to the story. If you like a well-done psychological thriller that keeps you turning those pages until the very end, I would definitely recommend this book! One thing struck me as I read this book and that is that one should not post too many personal details about one's life on Facebook, nor should you befriend a person you thought was dead and that you feel guilty about.

And knowing the extent of the dominating relationship she had with him in the past, I don't understand why she's still all a-tremble in his presence.

Review Request came out back when I first started rewiewing books, and it was always on my radar, but I picked it up only now, thanks to my friend Amanda who suggested it to be our next buddy read.I will immediately condemn the bully as horrible little shit but in this novel to my disbelief I found myself almost siding with Louise and her horrible behaviour.
