You'll Never Know, Dear
by Hallie Ephron
You'll Never Know, Dear is a great mystery with lots of very tense suspense! I cruised right through this one because I needed to know how things turned out!
The writing was so easy to read and I enjoyed the overall storyline. I also really liked each of the characters! I thought they were developed fairly well and I enjoyed learning more about each of them as the story progressed. My favorite part about each of the main female characters was how strong they all were. At any point, many of them could have played the victim card or cowered off in a corner, but they never did. They stood strong and fought to get things figured out, not relying on anyone else.
From strictly a mystery perspective, I thought it was quite predictable. Though the action when things started to be laid out for the readers was still very enjoyable and thrilling!
While a bit predictable, this book still totally captivated me right from the beginning and kept me hooked throughout. I would highly recommend this one to any reader that enjoys quick mysteries and/or character driven stories. Four stars!
My favorite passages:
Lis learned a hard lesson: look away for a moment and the thing you cherish most in this world could be... would be... snatched away from you.
The principle was simple. If you could control a dream, bend it at your will, then you could rob nightmares and the memories that sparked them of their power to terrorize you.
"It's no sin," Evelyn said, "to accept a little help."
"Just one more question. How certain are the results?"
"If you provide usable DNA samples, results will be conclusive."
A chill went down Lis's spine as she hung up. How many things in life could you say that about?
"But many people find writing it down helps. Like taking it out of your head and putting it on a shelf where it can't hurt you again."
