Francesca has spent years trying to forget about her tragic past and move on. She thinks she’s finally got her break when, at university in her twenties, she lands a ghost writing job. But who’s she really working for? And why have bad things started to happen again?

I could not put this book down, it was such a page turner! At just under 300 pages and with short chapters, ‘The Student’ is such a bingeable psychological thriller.

I was so drawn in from the first chapter, wanting to find out what happens and how the story was gong to evolve. The plot was slightly predictable in parts, however this was balanced out for me by some twists that I definitely did not see coming.

This had all the elements of a fantastic psychological thriller. I wish there was slightly more descriptive aspects of places and characters as it was hard to visualise at times, but overall this didn’t take away from the story. Would definitely recommend this to fellow thriller lovers!

I liked it! With most chapters only a couple of pages long and the fast paced nature of the writing, this was a super quick read. There’s enough intrigue to keep swiping the pages as fast as possible. There are a good couple of twists on an almost predictable plot line/ending. I look forward to reading other titles by H. M. Lynn. ( 2.5 rounded up to 3/5)
Thank You to NetGalley and Boldwood Books for the invitation and opportunity to read this ARC.

This was a RUSH! I loved the pace of the book, the plot and how it unfolded. I am here for this Author again. Amazing read.

After what happened to my parents, I needed to start fresh, far away from the whispers and stares. Now, as a struggling university student, I barely scrape by, living in a new town where no one knows me or the tragedy I’ve tried to forget.

To make ends meet, I take on a ghostwriting job for a high-profile client. But the deal comes with one strange their identity must remain a secret.

At first, it seems like just another job. But as I work with this mysterious person more, their ideas hit too close to home. It’s as if they know everything about me, even the darkest parts of my past.

When my oldest friend goes missing, I realise I can't trust this client. But I can't escape their hold on me.

Because they know how this story ends. I survived once, but can I survive this?

Loved it. Will recommend to others.

Tense and addictive - the past won't let go and someone is raising the stakes to murderous levels. High stress and suspense, as sanity and trust are on the line and there is nowhere to go. Some obvious directions but also some interesting flips. A fast and tense read.

A terrific read which kept the pace up consistently, throwing red herrings and false trails throughout. The back story for the protagonist is the perfect foundation for a narrator you can’t quite trust and this comes to the fore fairly quickly. I really enjoyed this one!

Some secrets should never be shared…. I’ve spent years running from my past. After what happened to my parents, I needed to start fresh, far away from the whispers and stares. Now, as a struggling university student, I barely scrape by, living in a new town where no one knows me or the tragedy I’ve tried to forget. To make ends meet, I take on a ghostwriting job for a high profile client. But the deal comes with one strange condition: their identity must remain a secret. Their only communication is through a distorted voice on an app! Good book! This book had suspense, intriguing, murder, mystery, a sort of who done it and a few crazy twists and turns! The story was interesting, it wasn't one of my top favorite but still worth reading! Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for sharing this book with me!
