Publisher's summary

"After four, I quit counting. What's the point if you know it isn't going to stop?"

Sadie is jealous. Why wouldn't she be? Her life is falling apart. Meanwhile, her new neighbor is everything she is not.

Ann is perfect-the kind of woman everyone loves to hate-and a best friend to die for. She hosts over-the-top dinner parties, takes parenting to an entirely different level, and makes ambition look sexy as hell.

Sadie learns quick: the best way to cure jealousy is to befriend it. She also learns there's more to her new friend than meets the eye. She's patient, she's kind, and possibly a serial killer.

It isn't until Ann's proclivities hit a little too close to home that Sadie has to ask herself how much she's willing to overlook in the name of getting what she wants.

Exquisitely paced, Her is an unnerving and electrifying psychological thriller about jealousy, passion, and the dangerous places desire can take you. Full of enough tension and twists to make even the most seasoned suspense listener break out in a cold sweat, it keeps you guessing until the very end.

What happened at the end?!

I’m disappointed about the ending. I felt it could have been better. Like maybe a conclusion but it was just all over the place. Fantastic performance though.

Slow and anticlimactic

Too much slow dialogue between three narrators even though it’s technically only two people. Just an awkward story of a murderer

Difficult to follow

although intentional that the reader is not certain which character is "Her", it remains a question throughout the book. rather unsatisfactory in that sense

Better than I thought.

It was one of those during it I was like what it going on? And even almost abandoned it in the beginning. But then kept listening and at the end I was like whattt. I enjoyed it.

meh

just meh. no idea what category I would put this book into. it wasn't suspenseful, it didn't have any great twists or unexpected turns. it was more erotic than necessary.
nothing positive to say... sorry.
"if Anne knows this, than I know this"
i don't recommend this book.

The Ending is a mess.

I loved the story all the way until the end, and then, I don't know what happened. It wasn't good. I expected a great ending with a better revenge story. But nope, just nonsense.

Convuluted.

I started this book when it was free until 9/12 and didn't finish it in time because I had to keep rewinding to understand. I ended up buying it only to finish today with a horrible nonending. It was a total waste of time and money.

Confusing

I wanted to like it more than I did. It would start to spark my attention and then totally lose me. It seems the author tried to add in too many thrilling and unsuspecting curve balls but it got out of hand. The performance was good.

Dark. Unlikable characters.

I love books when I feel a connection with a character(s). This story had no one to root for. They were all unlikable, waste of human beings. As so many other reviews noted, very confusing story line. I didn’t feel as if actions had meaning, except maybe to showcase a dark mind. The end is terrible, unbelievable, and truly makes no sense whatsoever. I am pleased that the book was free and no credit was wasted. But I will never get back this wasted time…

Great performance.

Very hard to follow. Most of the chapters have the same title. It was..ok. I was expecting something different I suppose.
