All the Dangerous Things by Stacy Willingham
4.0
challenging dark emotional mysterious tense slow-paced
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

One year ago, Isabelle Drake’s toddler was kidnapped in the middle of the night…and she hasn’t slept since. In her continuous search for answers, she befriends a true crime podcaster, and starts to question her own past in the process.

Much like everyone else and their mother, I read and loved A FLICKER IN THE DARK and was stoked to get my hands on an early copy of this one as well!

ALL THE DANGEROUS THINGS by Stacy Willingham is a slow-burn thriller that features every mother’s nightmare and brings to question what a woman will do for her children. I loved the complexity of the characters in this one, and just how intricately everyone’s stories were woven.

This book also features multiple timelines (LOVE!) which gave a ton of depth to the lead character and showcased just how much was at stake for her.

The twists in this one kept me on my toes and I think a lot of readers will feel the same!

Huge thanks to NetGalley, St. Martin’s Press, and Minotaur Books for an ARC in exchange for an honest review!
