This isn't the most gripping psychological thriller I've read but I kind of enjoyed it! It has an OK storyline and I didn't see the twist coming so that's fine by me!

Not since I Let You Go has a twist had me gasping out loud, this book has a real sting in its tail!
The characters have a three dimensional quality that ensures even though they aren't always likeable you certainly feel a connection to them. Captivating and at times really rather eerie, this is a captivating and assured debut.
Thank you to the Publisher and to NetGalley for the copy in exchange for an honest review.
Highly recommended.

Gracie Dwyer lives a perfect life,handsome husband,beautiful daughter,career as a cook on tv and adoring friends
Juliet is a penniless single mum,lives in a squalid flat,has no job and a bully of a ex who is doing everything in his power to make her life a living hell.
So what draws these two completely different women together to forge a unlikely friendship.In this twisted tale of lies and betrayal will either of these women be alive at the conclusion.
The story is told from the perspectives of Gracie and Juliet both of whom I found very unlikable for completely different reasons.Throughout the book there are extracts from a diary written in the past by a character called Pauline Bryce.These entries add mystery and intregue to the story,who is she and how does she fit into events that are happening in the present?.
It's not a fast paced story but there are plenty of twists,mystery and intregue to keep the reader hooked and turning the pages including a totally unexpected twist at the end.I love the breaking glass effect on the cover of this book and I thoroughly enjoyed this twisted mystery.

I loved this book! It was instantly gripping and kept you guessing and wondering what was going to happen. It was really easy to read and the characters were well written and likeable! I would definitely recommend this book!!!

I'm not sure I would categorise this as a psychological thriller?
Unfortunately I predicted the obligatory twist quite early on so I had to wait a really long time to be proven right.
I wasn't blown away by this book but I got through it quite quickly.
Thanks to Harper Collins UK for allowing me to read this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Her Perfect Life by Sam Hepburn is a slow burning psychological thriller that keeps you turning the pages.The story is based around the life of Gracie who is a celebrity cook and her husband Tom who has a daughter Elsie and whose first wife tragically died.When Juliet and her daughter meet Gracie an unlikely friendship develops and so as their paths collide strange and sinister things are brought to the fore involving other friends and family.Although a bit slow at the beginning the book had me gripped the further i read and i never saw the ending coming at all.A good book i would recommend to anyone who enjoys this genre.

Lighter (in a good way) than the usual psychological thrillers but had a great story and twist. The book includes infidelity, stalkers, the unstable and the perfect character! I thought I had some idea of where it was going but finished with a good ending I did not foresee. Thanks to Netgalley and Publisher for advanced copy.
