Keep Your Eyes on Me – My Review
This is the story of two wronged women who meet on a plane and plan the perfect revenge. I absolutely love how the author had me asking so many questions right from the start and wanting to keep reading even when my vision blurred and sleep begged for me to give in. There was so much to love about this book and if you are a writer and want to know how to plot like an expert, you have to read this. The plot is so well done and I found myself having loads of aha moments on how I could better my own writing as I read it.
For me, Vittoria’s character really stood out. She was fantastic in every sense of the word, meticulous in her planning and execution of the perfect revenge on her cheating husband. The pacing was perfect and every time I said I’d finish for the night when I got to the end of the chapter, something else happened and I couldn’t stop.
I tried, and failed miserably, to figure out how this book was going to end and for me that makes this story a winner. If you enjoy a story that will have you wondering right to the very end, then Keep Your Eyes on Me by Sam Blake is one you won’t want to miss. Superb writing, excellent plotting, and characters you can get behind. A solid 5 star read and I’m grateful to Netgalley and Atlantic Books for giving me the opportunity to read an advanced copy.
Keep Your Eyes on Me is out now in ebook, paperback, and audiobook. If you are a fan of crime and thrillers, you’ll love it.
