Follow Me by Sara Shepard
4.0
3.5 stars
Typical Sara Shepard book. Weird continuity errors like the sun "just starting to rise" at the beginning of a chapter and then a couple hours of story-world time later "the sunrise was just beginning." This happens SO much in ALL her books. It's kind of like her signature. That and the fact that she must have a goal to learn and use one really good new synonym for every book she writes. Maybe she picks a rarely used word to use at the beginning and then uses it again later as a sort of call back.
I gguueessss it was because Brett is some kind of master of disguise or something? If that is the case (and what I would think would be a plot-critical detail) maybe mention that once or twice? Or ever?
Still though, Sara Shepard knows how to write supremely-suburban-white-girl-nonsense-suspense really well. Her books are consistantly inconsistent, and that is why I stick with them. My autocorrect just spelled "consistent" two different ways and that is hilarious so I'm not going to change it.
Oh and at one point she says that because it was raining the humidity was sucked out of the air or something? What?? Rain IS humidity? Like literally the most humidity possible?
