✨ Summarized by Bookclubs AI
Readers say *His & Hers* by Alice Feeney is a fast, twisty psychological thriller that hooks with dual timelines and ongoing revelations. Most praise ...
8.5⭐️ - rounded down for Bookclubs
The queen of the twists! I love the way Alice Feeney writes, it really keeps me on my toes and trying to guess the outcome. My notes were just me asking myself more questions and then going back to old thoughts to just find myself backtracking again. I think the only thing I could guarantee was that I didn’t trust anyone. I enjoyed the dual perspectives but it definitely added to the plot twists. The audio was incredibly creepy specifically the murderer chapters. I won’t say it’s perfect but it definitely had me on the edge of my seat and managed to continue to shock me so I’d say that’s a win. If you like a good, twisty, psychological thriller, I highly recommend.
Pretty good page-turning thriller, providing a nice break between meatier reads. I did not in any way shape or form guess who the culprit was, so that was quite a surprise!
This was definitely a page turner.
“There are at least two sides to every story; yours and mine, ours and theirs, his and hers. I always prefer my own…“What good is trying to tell the truth about the world when I can’t bear to be honest about my own story: who I am, where I came from, what I’ve done…But maybe it’s for the best that no one else ever knows the truth about what happened. I doubt they would believe me anyway…Sometimes I think I am the unreliable narrator of my own life. Sometimes I think we all are.”
“There are several characters in this story, each with their own perspective of what has happened. I can only give you my own and guess at the others. Like all stories, it will come to an end. I have a plan now, one which I intend to stick to, and so far I think it is going rather well. Nobody knows it was me. Even if they did suspect something, I’m reasonably confident they could never prove it.”
“Pay attention to the little things, because they are often the biggest clues to who a person really is. People rarely see themselves the way others do; we all carry broken mirrors.” “Not all broken moral compasses are beyond repair. Some can start to work again with an ethical shake from another person. We all travel alone inside our own heads, but it is possible to navigate someone’s intentions north of bad and south of wrong…It’s easy to recognise people with bad intentions when you know what it is like to be one.” “I don’t even think of myself as a killer really; I’m just a person who has decided to do a public service for the benefit of others.” “I am not sorry for what I did, I just never wanted anyone to find out.”
“We tend to categorise people the way we categorise books: if they don’t fit neatly into a genre, we’re not sure what to make of them…Some stories are as addictive as success.” and Alice Feeney’s His & Hers is intoxicating.
Audiobook- read it twice and it’s because I forgot the story and killer….
