Blood Echo
Melissa Simonson
I received a review copy of this book free from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
Blood Echo follows Iris Avery, a debutante on the Upper East side who lives off her families trust fund and her best friend Estella Blake. The Twist? Estella is dead, supposedly of a suicidie, and she is only present as a voice inside Iris' head. But when people start dying, and Iris is being stalked by a mysterious murderer who seems to know all her secrets, Iris' stress builds up as she tries to figure out who could be doing all this, and why.
This tale of mystery and obsession reveals secrets and scandals, and leaves you asking questions. The book doesn't really get interesting until about half way through, and I found myself trudging through it until I could get to the part where the book actually got good. That being said, from there I could not put it down. Amidst scandals, secrets, and little plot twists, this book kept me coming back for more. And then the end happened. This book has the biggest plot twist I don't think anyone could ever see coming, and I uttered an inhuman groan/scream upon finishing this book.
I am giving this book 3 out of 5 stars, because the ending was slow, but the entire story is very interesting and really good. It's kind of like Pretty little liars but with older girls and a lot more cocaine.
Thank you very much to NetGalley, Red Adept Publishing, and Melissa Simonson for providing me with this book. This book is already in print, and you can get it wherever you buy your books. Thank you for reading this, and I will see you soon with more reviews.
