All the Dangerous Things
All the Dangerous Things is a thriller you NEED to read! I read it with @mamas_top_shelf and we couldn’t put it down or get over the nonstop roller coaster ride. You can even swipe to see an excerpt of our text messages (spoiler free) and how our jaws were basically on the ground the whole time. If seeing that doesn’t convince you, maybe this review will!
All the Dangerous Things (Pub 1/10) is one of those thrillers that will have you putting a pot of coffee on so you can stay up way into the night reading, because there is no way you are putting this book down once you start it.
What appealed to you the most in this story?
The suspense and the mystery. I was forced to live in the moment while reading this riveting book and having absolutely no clue or even inkling of what was going to happen next. It really is a story where you find yourself questioning everything.
How was the audio version?
I am so thankful that I had both the book and audio version, because when I was forced to put the book down, I was immediately able to switch over to the audio. Karissa Vacker knocked it out of the park with her narration. She was able to ratchet up the tension and suspense even more, which left me hanging on her every word. I actually ended up sitting in the parking lot at the grocery store listening for 15 minutes before I realized it!
How was the pace?
Fast! I binged this one, so be warned that once you start it, you aren’t going to get anything done until you turn the last page.
Do you recommend this book?
READ IT, READ IT, READ IT!!! Talk about a smart and engaging story where the twists just keep coming. This is a thriller that has now moved to the top of my lifetime favorites list, and I definitely won’t forget it.
Thank you, Minotaur Books, for this gifted copy in exchange for my honest review.
Synopsis: One year ago, Isabelle Drake's life changed forever: her toddler son, Mason, was taken out of his crib in the middle of the night while she and her husband were asleep in the next room. With little evidence and few leads for the police to chase, the case quickly went cold. However, Isabelle cannot rest until Mason is returned to her—literally.
Except for the occasional catnap or small blackout where she loses track of time, she hasn’t slept in a year.
Isabelle's entire existence now revolves around finding him, but she knows she can’t go on this way forever. In hopes of jarring loose a new witness or buried clue, she agrees to be interviewed by a true-crime podcaster—but his interest in Isabelle's past makes her nervous. His incessant questioning paired with her severe insomnia has brought up uncomfortable memories from her own childhood, making Isabelle start to doubt her recollection of the night of Mason’s disappearance, as well as second-guess who she can trust... including herself. But she is determined to figure out the truth no matter where it leads.
