Description

Two ordinary women make a deadly pact to take revenge for each other after being pushed to the brink in this “unguessable and unputdownable” (Alex Michaelides, #1 New York Times bestselling author) psychological thriller, perfect for fans of Gillian Flynn and Alfred Hitchcock.

One dark evening on New York City’s Upper West Side, two strangers meet by chance. Over drinks, Amanda and Wendy realize they have much in common, including an intense desire for revenge against the men who destroyed their families. As they talk into the night, they come up with the perfect plan: if you kill for me, I’ll kill for you.

In another part of the city, Ruth is home alone when the beautiful brownstone she shares with her husband, Scott, is invaded. She’s attacked by a man with piercing blue eyes, who disappears into the night. Will she ever be able to feel safe again while the blue-eyed stranger is out there?

“Explosive, game-changing” (Publishers Weekly, starred review), and unpredictable, Kill for Me, Kill for You will keep you guessing until the final page.

    On outlier island w/ this book. I went in with fairly high expectations after all the glowing reviews and while I did enjoy one of the twists (did not see that coming!), there were too many moments that just didn’t work for me. I’m finding it difficult to explain why without revealing spoilers. There are some reviews on Goodreads that nail some of those reasons (they contain spoilers). I will say I could have eye rolled myself into next week at how gullible Amanda’s character is. She didn’t think for one second to confirm the man she’s been obsessed with bringing to justice is actually dead before going through with her part? No proof required? Really?? Not even a photo?!? Well… that’s a spoiler. Sorry! On a positive note, I do like the writing and enjoyed a good chunk of the book.

    I read A LOT of books in this genre and the hope, each endeavor, is an original premise with competent and compelling prose. I got almost those in this story. If there was a 4.5 star it would fit. Worth the money.
