goodeyreads 's review for:
One of Us Is Back
by Karen M. McManus
medium-paced
PRETTY GOOD.
BLOG || INSTAGRAM
At first it took me a bit just to remember everyone and alllll of the things that had happened in the previous books (I did not reread them). Once I had a handle on characters and places I feel like the book settled in a bit better.
I always love multi-POV in thriller type books. Getting to see multiple angles from the cast shed a lot of light on past grievances and what things were happening a little more behind the scenes. I enjoyed all of the characters and seeing where their stories ended up.
The mystery was great. I admit at not catching on to many of the twists. I like that I was kept guessing and not quite sure who would survive until the end of the book. There’s some devastation mixed in with the hope of a better day and I thought things were wrapped up well in those veins.
Overall audience notes:
- YA Thriller
- Language: some strong
- Romance: kisses
- Violence: high
- Trigger/Content Warnings: gun violence, murder, kidnapping, drugging someone, cheating (side character)
