Publisher's Summary

A razor-sharp, wickedly smart suspense debut about an ambitious influencer mom whose soaring success threatens her marriage, her morals, and her family’s safety.

Followed by millions, watched by one.

To her adoring fans, Emmy Jackson, aka @the_mamabare, is the honest “Instamum” who always tells it like it is. 

To her skeptical husband, a washed-up novelist who knows just how creative Emmy can be with the truth, she is a breadwinning powerhouse chillingly brilliant at monetizing the intimate details of their family life.

To one of Emmy’s dangerously obsessive followers, she’s the woman who has everything - but deserves none of it.  

As Emmy’s marriage begins to crack under the strain of her growing success and her moral compass veers wildly off course, the more vulnerable she becomes to a very real danger circling ever closer to her family.

In this deeply addictive tale of psychological suspense, Ellery Lloyd raises important questions about technology, social media celebrity, and the way we live today. Probing the dark side of influencer culture and the perils of parenting online, People Like Her explores our desperate need to be seen and the lengths we’ll go to be liked by strangers. It asks what - and who - we sacrifice when we make our private lives public and ultimately lose control of who we let in....

Fresh Edgy Dark Thriller

NO SPOILERS! Whoever said this book was boring didn’t listen to it. It was packed with thrills. This book belongs on the best seller list. I listen to 100s of thrillers a year and this one was fresh! Easily one of the more memorable in the last year.

The book is witty and the characters are well developed and interesting. The narration was perfect and the story was scary and possible.

I recommend it to anyone that likes domestic or psychological thrillers.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ From a Picky Listener

Damn. I loved it, and for the first time in a while, I hated for a book to end. It is twisted, disturbing and completely addictive.

No Spoilers:

These egomaniac characters are narrated perfectly, and I have been craving a really good, multiple narrator audiobook. I have also been craving a psychological thriller without endless political statements and innuendos, so a big thanks to the author for this break from all the “stuff”.

The ending ties up loose ends in such a clever way, and by “ending”, I mean the epilogue, which was really a necessity to close this baby out.

LOVED IT

This book was sooo good. Fresh new psychological thriller with a whole new plot. I liked all of the narrators (and I’m picky). I also liked how all three points of view were relatable and likeable characters. On point book - two thumbs up

Great Book!

I finished it in two days because I had to go to bed or I would have been done in one sitting it was that good. I enjoyed the narrators.

so so

I. really wanted to love this but I didn't. It wasnt horrible but the characters were not developed and I never really got to know them. I did enjoy the story line but this one fell flat.

I returned the book.

The topic of Instagram influencers is interesting, but there’s nothing interesting about this story. No plot, no dialogue, boring characters. Disappointing.

Very good!

Timely and haunting. Makes me rethink social media's part in our society. I also see it in a whole new light.

it was good but must be warned

TRIGGER WARNING: Infant loss. Wish I would have known.. Overall good book despite the rawness of my personal wounds

Drags until the end

An entire book of build up for the last like chapter of action, which gets boring quickly. I was listening at 2.2X speed for the second half to get through.

I really really liked this one!

I loved this book, i thought it was well written and weaved a great story! one spoiler is there is infant loss, and that is a trigger to a lot of people, so be warned.
otherwise i loved it!
