This was a light entertaining thriller, which I enjoyed for what it was. I don't think my students will like it though or be able to relate to the characters. Older rich women for the most part with a lot of emphasis on money, their looks. When an old friend with the same name shows up and seems to want her life, we wonder who to root for. Told in both women's perspectives. It doesn't seem like it will be engaging enough for my students to get past how different their lives are from these women

AMAZING! I loved every part of this book! The drama and the romance there was a twist around every page. I love when a book keeps me interested through the whole thing, and never lets up. The Holly drama was top notch, and even if we the little flashbacks it was so good (I’m not a person who likes flashbacks).

I truly went into this, not sure what to expect and I was thoroughly surprised. I admit, I’m not 100% sure on my full thoughts as I did enjoy some parts immensely but others, not so much. However, the blend of the two still made for an interesting and unique thriller read. I was hooked and intrigued to read on and would recommend this book. I think I just needed a little bit more from it, it was just missing something but I’m still unsure on what.

Tiny Daggers is a sharp, addictive thriller packed with wealth, deception, and jaw-dropping twists.

The story follows Holly Jones and expat from London who has built a perfect life in Miami—successful husband, loving children, and a tight-knit circle of friends. But when her old high school friend, Holly Wild, arrives from London, everything starts to unravel. At first, it seems like a harmless reunion, but soon, Holly Jones begins to suspect that Wild isn’t just visiting—she’s infiltrating. Her friends adore Wild, her husband is charmed, and even her children seem drawn to this new presence in their lives. But is Holly Wild just reconnecting, or is she systematically stealing the life Jones worked so hard to build?

I loved this book! It was so full of twists! Just when you think you have it figured out, another layer of deceit is revealed.

Rating: 4 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC.

This is the first of Corcoran's I have read and, to be honest, it felt like a breath of fresh air. I had no clue what to expect going into this novel, but going in with little understanding is the best thing I could've done. Full of twists, turns, and a whole lotta bitchiness, this novel had me questioning everything and anything.

Tiny Daggers by Caroline Corcoran is a brilliant, gripping psychological thriller that delivers suspense and twists in spades. The novel follows a complex, toxic friendship that unravels in the most unexpected ways. Corcoran's sharp writing and intense character development keep the reader on edge from beginning to end. The unpredictable plot is full of dark secrets, betrayal, and the kinds of tension that make you want to turn the pages faster. If you're a fan of thrillers that explore the depths of human relationships and the dangers lurking beneath the surface, Tiny Daggers is a must-read!

Wow wow! Get ready for some twist and turns that I was not expecting! The book was not was I had guessed would happen! Which Holly is good? Which is bad? Definitely read this book you will not be disappointed!

I found the synopsis very interesting, but for some reason, the book just seemed bland. I wasn't as invested as I thought I would be and wanted to get the book over with. This book had one of my favorite tropes 'the unreliable narrator' but overall the book seemed far fetched and just did not hold my interest

This is one of the most twisty thrillers I've read recently. Bitchy toxic female friendships abound here! I went into this nearly blind, and GOD IT WAS SO GOOD. I will 100% be recommending this to my friends!

If you want something that's going to hook you and give the creeps right away, this is IT.

Delightfully gossipy, Tiny Daggers is the story of two ex-best friends, both called Holly, who have both ended up living a luxe lifestyle in Miami. The first Holly moved there with her banker husband; their lifestyle has everything you could possibly want, pools, summer houses, luxury clubs, staff to attend to your every whim - she's pretty happy and settled. Then second Holly turns up and starts taking over her friends, her life, her family. What's going on, is Holly mark 2 trying to take everything from the first Holly, and if so, why?

A fun beach read.

Absolutely brilliant, loved it. Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for allowing me an advance copy, I will definitely be recommending.

I really enjoyed this book . Nice twists and turns . I loved the way the story is cleverly woven . A very interesting enjoyable read with a fantastic twist

This book genuinely had me on my toes, I felt scared to turn the page and I guess that’s what thrillers are supposed to be doing? So it honestly delivered on the premise. At one point I committed the heicnous crime of flipping to the last pages just to know what happens at the end.

In all honesty I didn't expect to rate "Tiny Daggers" this high almost until the end of the story, when I asked myself the question: "Who is the real crazy-maker in here"? and actually got a satisfying answer. Based on the perspectives of two Hollies, this book explores the issue of warped reality and how gaslighting and manipulation may alter one's perception of reality and their actions.

The narrative slowly peels off the layers of the complex history between two protagonists, their past and present hurts. In the spirit of "domestic noir" the backdrop of "Tiny Daggers" feels claustrophobic, despite of the opulence of the world in which both characters function. The story feels quite dark and becomes even darker towards the end and the very last sentence.

Good idea and very well executed.

This was so TWISTY AND BITCHY ugh! I loved every minute, had me on edge trusting no one, such a creepy and insidious vibe throughout it, can't recommend this enough to fans of thrillers!

Holly Jones has the perfect life, until her past shows up in the form of her childhood best friend, Holly Wild. “Good” Holly vs “Bad” Holly has been a lifelong theme for these two frenemies- but which is which?

Twisty, dark, and I really enjoyed the authors writing style. I’m always a sucker for an unreliable narrator!

Keep your friends close but your enemies closer.
This was a fun and gripping tale of a cat and mouse game between two old friends, secrets and revenge.
I found the storyline gripping and I didn't want to stop reading this book.

Thanks to netgalley for a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

with two best friends named good holly and bad holly their two lives merge together in ways we never expect.

the book intrigued me as a reader, but i never felt fully immersed into the characters world.

i personally enjoyed the point of view switch up in the second half, so we get to see both characters mindsets.

as a revenge story it was pretty far fetched - yet still enjoyable.

Tiny Daggers is a fast-paced, dramatic thriller that follows the lives of two Hollys as they collide in the tense environment that is the elite housewives of Miami. Having left England, Holly Jones believes she has the perfect life in Miami with her husband and two children. She has the huge house, the gorgeous pool, the designer clothes, and the best girlfriends. Then, unexpectedly, she arrives for brunch with her girls and finds her old school friend/nemesis among them. What is the OTHER Holly doing here? As the new Holly integrates herself into the group, Holly Jones doesn't know what to expect. She fears everything she has built will soon collapse. Who is Holly Wild and what does she really want?

Tiny Daggers is well-written, fast-paced, and quite exciting. I absolutely loved the metaphor of the mosquito and how the author integrated it throughout the entire book (including the 47 daggers (chapters)). Fair warning, none of the characters are likable in this book; however, they are all quite intriguing. I could not put this book down. There are quite a few twists that I did NOT see coming. In addition to all the excitement throughout the story, I found the ending to be satisfying. I will definitely be recommending Tiny Daggers to anyone looking for a gripping, tense, drama-filled thriller

This is a story of two Holly’s. Holly Jones is living the ideal expat life in Miami when Holly Wild arrives in town and becomes part of Holly Jones’ life. We soon come to realise that these two have history. They were at school together, where Holly Jones made The Other Holly’s life a nightmare. The first half of the book is narrated from Holly Jones’ perspective. Due to a lot of detail, sometimes the pacing felt a little slow, but the characterisation is excellent. The speed ramps up in the second half which is narrated from Holly Wild’s point of view, and then the shocks start coming. The final part of the book is a whirlwind. Everything comes together but not in the way that you might expect. It took me a while to read this book but I’m really glad I stuck with it. It’s domestic noir at its best with characters you’ll love to hate.

Thank you to Caroline Corcoran, Thomas & Mercer and Netgally for my advance copy.
