I will simply end this review saying that if you love psycho-thrillers, or murder mysteries, please go and pick up this book. I am not throwing away any spoilers exactly like my other book reviews. It took me a day more to start turning the pages. The mother leaves the hands of her 5 year old son once they reach their home turn where vehicle movement is at the bare minimum at that hour and a car comes and hits him hard. In fact, it can give Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn a complex, but in a good way…īeing a new mom (I do not think this feeling will go away soon), the heart-rending accident that kicks off from the starting pages of I Let You Go by Clare Mackintosh left me too emotional. And as you must have noticed when I say I realized it was the awesome book mid-way, the book has major twists and turns. Oh, how wrong I was! But glad too, for my favorite genre is murder mystery and thrillers. I had not read the book blurb before and the cover pic of the book made me think that it is going to be kind of romantic, you know something on the lines of Me Before You by Jojo Moyes. Have you read a book and be blown away by it? Let me tell you this is one such book though I did not know it till I was half-way through it.
