This was an enjoyable novel, with an interesting premise. The story begins with the main character, Beth, going for her usual early morning run, during which she finds a list of 5 names, four of which are unknown to her. She is curious and concerned, as her name is third on the list.

As the plot develops, we find out more about Beth, who is seemingly haunted by a terrible secret in her past. She fears this list of names may be connected and so sets out to investigate.

My thanks to NetGalley and Orion Publishing Group for giving me the chance to read the ARC of this book.

Blimey, this book was not an easy read at times but so worth it. I was truly captivated from start to finish, on the edge of whichever seat I was sitting on and gripped to the very end.

This novel is exhilarating and devastating at the same time. We follow the story of Beth Belmont as her life begins to unravel after discovering a list of name on her usual morning running route. The third name on this list is her own and as she begins to dele deeper into the others she discovers that the first two people are on the list are dead, both under suspicious circumstances. This leads Beth on a horrific spiral back to her youth and an event that still haunts her nightmares.

A very exciting idea that gives as much as it promises. I can't wait to read another novel by this author.

Five stars from me!

This was an enjoyable and easy read, well written with an interesting premise. The story starts with Beth going for her usual early morning run when she finds a note with a list of 5 names on it but what scares her is the fact her name is number 3 on the list so how could this be and why. As the story progresses we find out more about Beth who is haunted by a terrible secret in her past and she fears this list of names may be connected and sets out to investigate.
I did find the character of Beth at times a little hard to connect with and the story a bit over complicated but all in all I did enjoy it but found the ending a little disappointing.

This book is certainly a fast paced psychological thriller. It is a highly addictive, heart pounding read with a couple of perfectly timed twists and turns right up to the end. Definitely a recommended read.

Beth Belmont does our for a run every morning until one day she finds a list of five names in the woods, only this is no ordinary list as her name is third on the list, Not being able to shake this list of as some kind of prank she discovers that the first two people in the list are already dead. What connection does Beth have to these people on the list and will she be next?

Beth Belmont is running through the woods when she finds a list. There are five names on the list. The third is yours. She doesn't recognise the other names and has no idea how they are connected. What she does find out however is that the first two names on the list are now dead.

This thriller follows three narrators, Beth, a woman with a seemingly normal, pleasant life, apart from the regular nightmares, Ruby, a 12 year old girl who is in a facility for reasons I can't disclose, and an unknown entity, the writer of the list. The stories gradually come together and there are plenty of twists and turns along the way.

I'd recommend The List if you enjoy easy to read thrillers.

I was really looking forward to reading this book, it sounded great, but I struggled to connect with the main character.I tried again after a few days but just found it hard work, I can only hope it was just me and others enjoy it more than I did.

Beth Belmont is haunted by her past.

When she finds a list with her own name on it, she is compelled to research the other names only to realise she is tied to them by history she’d rather forget.

I found parts of this book quite predictable but overall I enjoyed it. Sometimes there is too much description which somehow has the effect of making the scary bits less scary, rather than increasing your unease as you read.

A good idea for a book but I wasn’t sure on the ending! Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for my copy of this book.

This was an excellent and dramatic novel, with believable and well-fleshed out characters. Highly recommended.

When Beth Belmont sees a slip of paper while running in her local woods, she decides to check to see what it is. The piece of paper is a list, containing five names - and one of them is Beth's name. Beth can't stop thinking about the list and does some research. She finds out that the first two people on the list are dead, and her name is next - will she be next to die...?

A thrilling tale where you are kept guessing until the end. I liked how the book moved between the present and past so we are slowly fed the story of how it all links together. A worthwhile read.

Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for an advance copy of the book in return for my honest feedback.

I didn't enjoy this as much as I thought or hoped I would. Parts of it were a little slow and the different perspectives and people names confused me a little. I was still confused by who wrote the List even at the end!

Creepy and orginal. A good read.
Beth Belmont runs every day, hard and fast on the trail near home. She knows every turn, every bump in the road. So when she spots something out of place - a slip of white paper at the base of a tree - she's drawn to it.
On the paper are five names. The third is her own.Beth can't shake off the unease the list brings. Why is she on it? And what ties her to the other four strangers?
Its lanuage is easy to read and connect with the protagonist.
Its dialogues are just wow.
