Got me again! 
Twists and reveals, right to the end! (Shouldn't I be getting smarter by now? Don't I read enough thrillers? Do I need a whiteboard to keep track of theories? An algorithm? A team of investigative minds on call and at the ready?)
Thank you to HarperCollins Canada for my eARC for review.
Hannah Mary McKinnon's latest novel, The Revenge List, takes an anger management exercise and flips it.
Frankie (Francesca) Morgan's dad thinks she has rage issues. She goes to anger management classes on his request, and loses her notebook along the way. The notebook contains a list of those she feels need her forgiveness. 
Someone, though, has found it and made it into a hit list.
The Revenge List took me a bit to settle into. But once I got to the second half, the pace was set and I raced to the end. We are taken through Frankie's feelings of guilt and remourse, as well as her trove of secrets. 
Well done, once again Hannah - recommended!
Released on May 23.
