Welcome to Litsy!

Despite starting this read with a great deal of optimism, “How to Play Dead” wasn‘t really my cup of tea. I was expecting a gripping thriller but instead this is more of a slow study if characters and their relationships. It‘s 2 stars from me for this one.

My full review is up on my blog now 📚

This is a very powerful read and deals with some hard hitting stuff relating to abuse. It's hard reading at times but it reads sensitively and honest to the subject. The book switches between Ria and a young woman's diary. Its very sad at times yet theres some hopeful and uplifting moments too. The ending is not how I wanted it to end but it's more honest this way and the way these situations often are. #Netgalley
