Review
You Are Not Alone is the third thriller from author duo, Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen. It wasn't my favourite of their work, it was an okay read.
I didn't find the story had a fast paced feel, to me it developed on the slower side. It wasn't gripping, or an edge of your seat thrilling ride, but I did enjoy some of the twists and reveals along the way.
The story was told from multiple points of view however I found it difficult at times to differentiate between certain members of "the group." The characters were all rather two dimensional and their voices blended together.
On the whole, You Are Not Alone was just interesting enough for me to finish, but it's not a story I'll remember in a week's time.
