A bit of a slow burner for me, found it quite hard to get into. Overall an ok read and a good ending, just took a while to get into.

Shay witnesses a woman she doesn’t know commit suicide and as a result gets drawn into the woman’s friendship group. They are all thirty somethings, living in New York, cool and fairly affluent. Shay is the right age but lacks the other characteristics. Nevertheless, she is flattered, if bemused, by their attentions and her life seems to be improving daily. It comes as no surprise to discover that things are not as they seem. The ‘friends’ are conspiring to set her up as a patsy although it takes a while to reveal why. Incrementally she becomes ensnared by the conspirators, who are very far from their public images. The story speeds up as it heads for the denouement and some of the final details are surprising, especially the final reveal. All told an enjoyable and entertaining read.
I would like to thank NetGalley, the publishers and the authors for providing me with a prepublication copy for the purpose of this review.

Firstly, I'd like to thank Tandem Collective, Pan Macmillan and the two lovely authors for gifting me a copy for an honest review! The paperback came out on the 20th August which is only £4.50 on Amazon! (TW: Suicide/Adult Grooming).

I'd like to address the topic of this book because it was very close to home. I found the middle of the book very hard to read because of how similar events happened in this book that have happened recently to someone I know. The main character is groomed by two other women until she feels like she owes them for how great her life has become with them in it. Adult grooming is a real thing. It happens all the time. The writing was definitely accurate and made me feel sick at times. This is the only reason that I didn't rate the book 5 stars. If I hadn't experienced something similar I wouldn't have anything negative to say.

The story followed Shay, who I really enjoyed as the MC. This book really helps you to understand 'be careful what you wish for' because sometimes the life you're bored of can get a lot worse. By the end of the book I was really hooked and needed to see what happened. I couldn't put it down at that point and finished it pretty quickly. I was satisfied with the ending which was realistic and not a 'happily ever after' kind of ending that makes thrillers fall a little flat. It's definitely a book I recommend. It felt like I was watching a really good thriller series on TV.

I am a big fan of this duo, having read both their previous books. This one was just as good as the other two. I was gripped! If you like thrillers, you should read this. I couldn’t put it down and read it in 24 hours. Highly recommended!

Totally got lost in this book. The characters were very well written and the plot was intriguing and kept you guessing right till the end. I will definitely look for more by these authors

I have mixed feelings on this one. The first two parts had me really into the story, but after that it just kind of fell apart for me. I became very disinterested in what was going on, and found myself rolling my eyes a lot. I was just kind of waiting for things to finally catch up to Shay in the end, and the payout didn't feel all that worth it. I enjoyed this one more than The Wife Between Us though, so I think I'd still be tempted to check out more of their work in the future.

I really enjoyed this story.
I don't think he was particularly original the story but I did think that it was definitely worth a read and I am glad I read it

Absolutely brilliant unpredictable read from start to finish. I would definitely highly recommend! A page turner

Wow. What an amazing ride. Had me hooked from the start and couldn’t put it down. Great character development throughout.

An interesting premise, well developed into a compelling story line with some enjoyable twists and turns.

The thought that the book could be a true story is a theme that runs through it and it is at times uncomfortable to read because of this.

A fantastic book and a well paced plot.

Thoroughly recommended.

This is a must read for anyone interested in psychological thrillers - this is my favourite genre so i have greater expectations and this did not disappoint - recommend!!!

3.5 stars rounded up to 4. it took a while to get into this. However,ended up being quite drawn in.Nice,easy reading psychological thriller.Pretty unbelievable but if you can ignore that,it's an enjoyable read.

Wow....just wow...tense...gripping...twists...it has all the ingredients for a perfect book and I just loved it! I had loved the authors previous books and this is no exception! Fabulous!

I love Greer Hendricks’ and Sarah Pekkanen’s last 2 novels, I think they write such suspenseful and tense books that always keep me wondering. This was no exception!
The scene setting and atmosphere was fantastic! And I made so many assumptions and guesses and kept retracing my thoughts to keep up with the pace of the novel. Just brilliant! I think this would be fab on audio too!

Absolutely fabulous read from start to finish, you can't think ahead because you will be wrong. Excellent, highly recommend it.

This was an easy to read thriller thaylt kept my attention all the way through! Lots of twists and surprises I didn't see coming. Very good, would recommend! Love these authors and can't wait to see what they do next!

Good read, well written, plenty of suspense and intrigue. Good plot, flowed nicely, would recommend to other readers. For me not enough blood and guts, 4 well earned stars.

Thank you NetGalley and Pan Macmillan for a free galley in exchange for my honest review. This pair writes such a solid mystery full of twist and turns and You Are Not Alone is no exception. My only (very minor) complaint about this book was that early on I knew the general direction of where it was heading unlike their two previous books; however, on a positive note, I could not work out the details and that still left for some nice surprises in the end. I was won me over by all the data and facts throughout the book. Shay, the main character, is a total data nerd and keeps JOURNALS of facts and collected data. A very vulnerable character, the data is what ultimately saves her. This added an interesting layer to the story. Overall, another excellent book from the Hendricks-Pekkanen partnership.

Shay witnesses a woman commit suicide. This really impacts Shay's life and she can't stop thinking about the woman. She ends up meeting the glamorous Moore sisters and she becomes friends with them. However, the sisters appear to have a secret.

I didn't enjoy this book as much as I was hoping to. I have heard great things about this writing duo so I was expecting really good things from this book and unfortunately, this did not meet my expectations. Firstly, I thought that there were too many characters to keep track of. It became a little confusing in parts to keep up with who was who.

This book moves quite slow in my opinion and didn't have me on the edge of my seat like I would expect a psychological thriller to do. The ending felt a little rushed and didn't have the shock factor that was expecting after hearing rave reviews of their previous books.

Overall I thought that this was a fairly average thriller and unfortunately, it did not live up to the hype.

Love this book, so many twists and turns and the mystery kept me hooked from the very first page.
My thanks to Net galley, the publisher and the author for allowing me to read an advance copy in exchange for an honest review.
