I just finished reading YOU’LL MISS ME WHEN I’M GONE by Kevin O’Brien. Kevin is one of my all time favorite authors and I never miss one of his releases. I’d been saving this one to take to the beach with me the end of the month, but I finally caved and read it by the pool instead. I couldn’t resist any longer!
First Line of Book:
There was no backing out of it now.
Recruit fans by adding the book blurb:
NO FORGIVENESS
Andrea Boyle moved to Seattle to give her seventeen-year-old nephew, Spencer, a fresh start after the death of his parents. Andrea has found her own new beginning with Luke, a successful playwright and father of a teenage son, Damon. The boys appear to have little in common, but in truth they share a private torment…
NO REMORSE
When a tragedy befalls Damon, it’s just the beginning of a nightmare that unfolds. But the worst is yet to come once a dark secret from Spencer’s past is exposed. And when Luke is brutally attacked, both of their futures are at stake.
NO SECOND CHANCE
Now it’s up to Andrea to prove Spencer’s innocence to the police—and to herself. Because for reasons she has revealed to no one, even Andrea can’t help questioning the truth—and fearing that she may be next to pay the ultimate price…
Introduce the main character using only three words.
Andrea Boyle—Loyal, determined, brave
Delightful design (add the cover image of the book).
Audience appeal. Who would enjoy reading this book?
Anyone who enjoys suspense and/or psychological thrillers.
A favorite line/scene.
The camera panned from the front of the car to the back, where a thin, forty-something blonde was sprawled across the seat. A piece of duct tape covered her mouth. Squirming, she rolled over on her side. The camera zoomed in on her hands, tied in back of her. Then the unsteady camera panned up and moved in close to her face—until Spencer could see the terror in her eyes.
“I think some of you already know my mother,” Damon said.
What do you think? Sound like a winner? I recently devoured it and gave it 5 stars. Kevin always tells an exceptional tale, IMHO.
What a great idea! Such a wonderful way to introduce friends here to new reads.

I think this is a great way to review a book. If a psychological thriller is written well, I can’t read it – I get too scared. This one sounds like it would freak me out. Ack. Great review.

Thanks for checking it out anyway, even if psychological thrillers aren’t your genre. I get that way with some horror novels, LOL. I won’t read anything that I think is going to leave me with nightmares 🙂
