THIS IS ONE HELL OF A STORY.
IT’S JUST NOT HERS TO TELL.
When failed writer June Hayward witnesses her rival Athena Liu die in a freak accident, she sees her opportunity… and takes it.
So what if it means stealing Athena’s final manuscript?
So what if it means ‘borrowing’ her identity?
And so what if the first lie is only the beginning…
Finally, June has the fame she always deserved. But someone is about to expose her…
What happens next is entirely everyone else's fault.

It got really hard to put the book down for the last 40 minutes, but before that nothing really did happen that much. It was an okay read

Well written, well read.

Het begon veelbelovend en bleef ook heel goed tot pagina 200 ongeveer. Erna werd het verhaal wat te lang uitgemolken en werd het einde heel voorspelbaar.

Poeh, saai boek zeg! Er gebeurt vrij weinig. Ik heb de snelheid op 2.0 gezet om er lekker snel doorheen te gaan en nog wel te kunnen horen of er wat interessants gebeurt. Had net zo goed kunnen stoppen.

Hilarous, scathing and commenting on the many flaws of the modern publishing industry

Sometimes it was genuinely really random and a third of the book was pure repetition, but it was a really nice insight into how weird the publishing industry can be. That was really interesting and I definitely recommend the book besides the repetitiveness

Heel tof, spannend en actueel verhaal dat ik vanaf pagina 1 niet kon wegleggen. Ik heb het half geluisterd en half gelezen, want ik wilde niet stoppen 😅 het is als kijken naar een treinongeluk, het is vreselijk en kan niet goed aflopen, maar fascinerend! Verder roept het boeiende actuele vragen op over racisme, en vond ik het als iemand die zelf ook schrijft een heel herkenbaar en boeiend inkijkje in de internationale bestsellerwereld.

Loved the book, the main character is described so well and I really started to not like her in the first minutes but was so curious what is happening. Kept me on my toes and enjoyed it thoroughly. Also a special mention to the voice, as she’s very pleasant to listen to!
