Believe Me by J. P. Delaney

I know that “JP Delaney” is a pseudonym for an author that’s written many bestsellers, and I know that this book is a rewrite of a novel from many years ago that failed to sell. But sometimes you just have to admit that they can’t all be winners.

An interesting, but cliche, premise slapped on top of a non-suspenseful psychological thriller, is not a recipe for success.

Ultimately, this book was pretty boring. Roughly 60% of it felt like filler (pointless scenes to fill the gaps between the scenes that actually mattered in an attempt to extend the book to more traditional length). Even then, it is still a very short book. And given its short length combined with the popularity of The Girl Before, I’m anticipating this book to be grossly overpriced.
