The Good Teacher by Brian O'Rourke

5.0

WOW! I finished this book in a few hours. I devoured these pages! This book wrecked my nerves! My anxiety was through the roof wanting to know2 what was going to happen. I was engrossed and on the edge of my seat the entire time. If manipulation and gaslighting were a person! I wasn’t sure what to think. Was Nelly delusional or was she correct in her thoughts? I flip flopped on the answer to that question so many times while reading this book. 

The characters were well developed and I felt that I got to know them throughout the story, especially Nelly, the female main character. The writing flowed in away that kept you flipping the pages. I just had to know what was going to happen. There was action and drama the whole way through, and I loved the short chapters. There were unexpected twists and turns throughout the story, and I liked the flashbacks to the past sprinkled in along the way. It helped me understand the characters better and gave depth to who Nelly was as a person. Theo Baxter has quickly moved to my “auto-buy authors” list!

Thank you NetGalley and Inkubator Books for the ARC in exchange for my honest review.
