Although a little far-fetched in places, this book did keep me turning the pages. Written from both the main characters point of view, I was left guessing throughout as to who was the victim. Just when I thought I had a grip on what was going on something happened to throw it all up in the air again! Brilliant ending where one of the characters is given a taste of her own medicine

Hannah, Libby, and Libbys husband, Matt, have all been friends for years. The three of them share a close bond that none of them could ever imagine not being there. But then something changes.
Libby is ignoring Hannah. She does not pick up her phone when Hannah calls her, does not answer emails, and is unavailable when Hannah visits Libbys office or home. Hannah is not only hurt, but very worried and concerned for Libby, and determined to find out what the problem is.
This is a twisted tale, told through several points of view. A gripping thriller, which draws the reader in. I thought I knew where the story was going, I didn't. I really enjoyed the book, it is the first I have read by this author, but I will now look for more.
Thank you for my advance copy.

I received an arc copy of this book from Net Galley in exchange for my honest opinion of it. This book was just okay for me. Some parts were really good with the twists but other parts just dragged on. I am giving it a lower rating because the use of the "f" word was just ridiculous and used way too much and actually was distracting for me.

3.5 ⭐️

Let Her Go hooked me right away with its mix of suspense, secrets, and the messy dynamics of friendship. I couldn’t wait to see what really happened to Libby and how far Hannah would go to uncover the truth.

Let Her Go followed Hannah, whose world was upended when her best friend Libby suddenly vanished without a trace. Matt, Libby’s husband, claimed she just needed space and urged Hannah to stop digging—but something about his story didn’t sit right. As Hannah searched for the truth about where Libby went and why she left, long-buried secrets about their friendship started to surface and showed how one shocking moment could change everything.

Since this was my first book by Alison Stockham, I wasn’t sure what to expect—I just hoped for a compelling psychological thriller and maybe a new author to add to my go-to list. With Stockham’s clean, quick, and character-driven style, it was hard not to get drawn in. I enjoyed the way she built tension through atmosphere and shifting relationships, keeping the pages turning with twisty reveals and plenty of emotional suspense.

Thanks to Net Galley and Boldwood Books for this ARC in exchange for my opinion.

I found this book a little slow to get going, but once it did, I couldn't put it down!

Written from dual POV, Hannah and her best friend Libby, the story begins with a shocking armed robbery and as it progresses, we learn more about the two friends and Libby's husband Matt.

Both characters are flawed and complex and as the story unfolds the tension ramps up.

An easy, thrilling read.

Another gripping thriller by Alison. Loved the twists and did not expect it to go the way it did. Can't wait for more books by Alison

Alison Stockham’s Let Her Go is a taut, emotionally charged mystery that lingers like a half-remembered dream—quietly unsettling, deeply human, and impossible to put down.

At its heart is Hannah, a woman content with the quiet rhythms of life, anchored by her closest friend Libby. Their bond feels elemental—more like chosen family than friendship. But when Libby vanishes without explanation, Hannah is left adrift in a silence that feels anything but benign. Her instincts whisper danger, even as those around her urge calm. What unfolds is a slow-burning unraveling of trust, memory, and the stories we tell ourselves about the people we love.

Stockham’s prose is clean and compelling, with a subtle lyricism that elevates the domestic thriller into something more intimate. The tension builds not through spectacle, but through emotional nuance—Hannah’s growing unease, the brittle edges of grief, and the creeping suspicion that love can be both sanctuary and snare.

Perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell and Liane Moriarty, Let Her Go is a story of female friendship, betrayal, and the quiet courage it takes to confront the truth. It’s a novel that asks: how well do we ever really know the people we trust most—and what happens when the answers begin to fracture?

A haunting, elegant read for autumn nights, best paired with candlelight and the kind of silence that listens.

With thanks to Alison Stockham, the publisher and NetGalley for the ARC.

Great thriller about two female friends and the man they both love. Lbby, Hannah, and Matt have gone to school together and Matt marries Libby later. but is he secretly in love with Hannah?? Things get ugly--as they usually do when two women love the same man! It's a twisty, fast-paced novel that will have your heart pumping faster than you could imagine!
Thanks to NetGalley for this ARC!

Let Her Go pulled me in right from the start, and what really stood out to me was the way Alison Stockham weaves together different POVs. Seeing the story unfold through multiple perspectives added significant depth, allowing me to experience the characters’ secrets, fears, and choices in a much more nuanced way.

The twists were another highlight. Just when I thought I knew where things were heading, the story shifted, keeping me hooked until the very end. That constant sense of unpredictability made it impossible to put the book down.

And then there’s the ending. It left me wanting more, in the best way. It wrapped up the story while still leaving me thinking about the characters and their futures long after I turned the last page.

A gripping, twist-filled psychological drama with multiple perspectives that add richness and intensity. Perfect if you love stories that keep you guessing and characters that stay with you after the final chapter.

A thrilling and gripping read that keeps you turning the pages. Plenty of shocks and surprises. Great!

This was slow starting for me but after the first few chapters I didnt want to put it down. The twists are brilliant and really enjoyed reading this xx

When friendships go sour, anything can happen... Truly a book that brings your friendships into play. Great characters that make the book feel like it's real life happening. I enjoy reading this book from an author I'm new too. Look forward to reading more.

Thanks to the author the publisher and Netgalley for a early release of this book.

I was hooked by this book and practically inhaled it! This is definitely a must-read for every thriller fan. I devoured the book in just a few hours HOLY SMOKE! Alison Stockham has done it again, this book was absolutely fantastic!

One of my favourite reads! I definitely did not see the twists coming! I started this one day and couldn't give it up, so was reading it from between my fingers in bed. I just had to know what happened next it was so riveting!

Let Her Go is the kind of book that hooks you from page one and doesn’t let up until the very last line. Each chapter peels back a different layer, giving you insight into their secrets, loyalties, and the dangerous path that their friendship takes.

Reading from both points of view was great—one moment you’re convinced you know the truth, and the next chapter flips everything on its head. The dual perspectives create a constant tension.

The pacing is sharp, the suspense is relentless, and the emotional depth of the friendship makes the stakes feel personal.

If you love thrillers that keep you guessing, characters who feel raw and real, and storytelling that makes you question how well you really know the people closest to you, Let Her Go is an absolute must-read.

How does someone just vanish into thin air? This book had me on the edge of my seat. It is breath taking.

I really enjoyed this.
I thought it was something really sister with someone in the book but it twisted like a Cork screw bend!
It had mean girl vibes and single white female vibes at times .

It was so good!

Emotional, raw, and suspenseful. This domestic thriller pulls you into a story of motherhood, loss, and impossible choices. The tension is balanced beautifully with heart, and the ending leaves you reeling.

Hannah and her best friend, Libby, go on a spa weekend, where Libby talks about issues she is having with her husband. Then, Libby disappears. Hannah is convinced that something happened to her and that Matt is behind it. Hannah sets out to find the truth. Then the author changes to Libby to show us what she thinks about Hannah and Matt. Just what is going on here?? And is everyone safe?

Hannah and Libby are close friends. They do everything together, and Hannah has been accepted as one of the family, even by Libby's husband.
After a weekend away, Hannah is ghosted by Libby, and has no idea why. She has to find out if Libby is alright.

I was transfixed to the pages of this book.
The story is so twisty and twisted. And creepy. And Tense!
When you think you know where the story is taking you, you find yourself totally turned around.
Imagine forest paths, following one, and then finding yourself on a completely different path.

It's insane and so are some of the characters!

This is why I love Alison Stockham's books. She is the Master of Deception.
