Cross Her Heart The Gripping New Psychological Thriller from the #1 Sunday Times Bestselling Author Sarah Pinborough author Electronics

This is one of the best psychological thrillers. I loved her first book and didn't think anything would be as good. This book was equally as good. I liked the characters even with their flaws. How hard it was to try to be "normal" in difficult situations. Manipulation, lies, secrets, child abuse, mental illness, domestic violence were some of the themes. One person is responsible for so much deceit. Another person is a true friend. Part of this book reminded me of the book Wicked Girls. Quick read

Cross Her Heart The Gripping New Psychological Thriller from the #1 Sunday Times Bestselling Author Sarah Pinborough author Electronics Reviews

After the stunning, supernatural-laced thriller "Behind Her Eyes," British novelist Sarah Pinborough shifts gears slightly toward the psychological suspense genre for her follow-up. Here she tells the hair-raising story of Lisa, a mom with a fascinating and tragic past. There are some mind-bending secrets in the world she inhabits, and Pinborough slowly and methodically doles out clues about her compelling main character. The novel percolates ingeniously as revelations unfold and events become more and more gripping. The author has created an electrifying tale that you won't soon forget; her characters are richly drawn and the pacing in this book is absolutely superb. This is my favorite novel of 2018 (so far), and you'll have a hard time forgetting it as well—cross my heart.
3.5 stars

Lisa is a single mother raising her sixteen-year-old daughter, Ava, without any help. She mainly keeps to herself but does have a friend from work named Marilyn. Both women like to keep to themselves and both have secrets. Ava also has secrets. She is a member of the swim team and is trying to be more independent. She has friends, a boyfriend and someone she has been chatting to through Facebook. Someone no one knows about.....

Lisa has lived in fear for a long time and is constantly looking over her shoulder. As secrets become known, the danger and suspense mounts...

Secrets, lies, betrayal, deception are all themes of this book. All the characters have secrets in this book. Some of their secrets are straightforward i.e. Ava is chatting with a mysterious person on Facebook. Other secrets take their time to be revealed. Some secrets have been buried deep and will slowly become known over the course of the book.

I found that this book started slowly for me, but that is not necessarily a bad thing. She had to set the stage and slowly unravel her plot. It did take some time, but I found that time to be worth it. If this starts slowly for you, my advice is to stick with it. As the secrets begin to be revealed the book picks up and doesn't stop. This is well written and although slow to start, ended nicely and did not disappoint. I did not love this as much as I did her other book, "Behind her Eyes" but this one is enjoyable.

I received a copy of this book from Edelweiss and William Morrow in exchange for an honest review.
Oh.My.Gosh! I'm a broken woman and it's all thanks to Cross Her Heart by Sarah Pinborough. Now this may come as a shock to many of you as I have a reputation as an on-the-ball crime blogger to uphold but this is the first book I have read by Sarah Pinborough. Her previous release, Behind Her Eyes was a little (<-- understatement) popular last year with its #WTFthatending hashtag. I have a copy, I just haven't managed to find the time to read it yet *hangs head in shame*.

What a book Cross Her Heart is! It's not often a psychological thriller can bring me to tears but as I said at the start of this review, I am a broken woman. I feel as though I've gone ten rounds with a champion heavyweight boxer, beaten and bruised but I wouldn't have changed it for the world. I had been warned previously that what you see isn't necessarily what you end up getting with a Pinborough novel. This author is a master at making you think one thing, pulling the wool completely over your eyes and then going 'taddah' and you're somewhere else entirely different to where you predicted. Top marks for doing it with such aplomb! Many writers try and achieve something similar and they do manage to some degree but this book, this author seem to reach a whole new undiscovered level.

I immediately liked Lisa. I could see a little of myself in her and maybe that was the reason I warmed to her as quickly as I did. She's an overprotective parent of a sixteen-year-old. She keeps herself to herself, gets on with her life and spends her days fretting about keeping Ava, her daughter, safe. It becomes apparent to the reader that Lisa has a lot of history, that something happened in her past that she's either running away from or there is someone she's hiding from. She has secrets but we all have secrets, right? It's just that some are a lot bigger, a lot more earth-shattering than others though...

Lisa is one of three strong female characters hiding their devastating secrets from the world in this story. Her daughter Ava has her own issues to deal with including an overprotective mother, exams and pressure from her friends to move her relationship with her boyfriend to the next level. Then we also have Marilyn, Lisa's best friend who's perfect life isn't the idyllic picture she paints on a daily basis. I adored all three of these characters. As Pinborough tantalisingly revealed their secrets and dropped another bombshell on her reader, how much I liked them varied quite dramatically - and I found that utterly fascinating.

I do have to mention Daniel and how he totally broke my heart into a million pieces and how, during parts of the book, I had to put it down and walk away and clear my mind a little. I had to have a breather otherwise I would have been a shambolic, sobbing mess in the corner of the room. But as I'm a 'no spoiler reviewer' I can't really tell you anything else about him or his story. If you want to find out more then you'll have to get a copy of Cross Her Heart.
Would I recommend this book? Absolutely, yes! What a page-turner of a read. What a brilliant, yet devastating story this is. I was completely hooked and I didn't want it to end. There were a couple of small points which I struggled to believe but the storytelling is so wonderfully intense and so riveting that I didn't really care. I was just enjoying a stonkingly good novel! Heartbreaking, emotional, impossible to tear yourself away from and so utterly devastating in places, this book should win awards.

Five out of five stars.

I chose to read and review an eARC of Cross Her Heart. The above review is my own unbiased opinion.
Finished Cross Her Heart by Sarah Pinborough. A fun and engaging thriller with lots of twists I didn't see coming. A few moments stretched my suspension of disbelief (but never completely broke it) and the climax felt a tad rushed to me, but those are minor quibbles. Overall I found it an entertaining read with great pacing. 4 out of 5 stars and definitely recommend it.
