Thank you to the publisher for sending me a copy of The Revenge List by Hannah Mary McKinnon in exchange for my honest review.
Book Synopsis
They say life flashes before your eyes when you’re about to die. But all she could see was regret.
The people in Frankie Morgan’s life say she’s angry. Emotionally stunted. Combative. But really, who can blame her? It’s hard being nice when your clients are insufferable, your next-door neighbor is a miserable woman and the cowardly driver who killed your mother is still out living it up somewhere.
Somehow, though, she finds herself at her very first anger-management group session—drinking terrible coffee and learning all about how “forgiveness is a process.”
One that starts with a list.
Frankie is skeptical. A list of everyone who’s wronged her in some way over the years? More paper, please. Still, she makes the pointless list—with her own name in a prominent spot—and promptly forgets about it…until it goes missing. And one by one, the people she’s named start getting hurt in freak accidents, each deadlier than the last.
Could it be coincidence giving her the revenge she never dared to seek…or something more sinister?
If Frankie doesn’t find out who’s behind it all, she might be next.
My Review
I binge read this book in a weekend. Hannah Mary McKinnon knows how to write a bingeable thriller. This book had me trying to figure out who the guilty person was. Even though I had partially figured out what had happened in Frankie's past, and I wouldn't understand the role this detail would play in the story for sure until much later in the book, this was a suspenseful read.
I really liked the ending and this was a fast paced read that provided a satisfying ending in terms of Frankie's relationships with her family and people from her past. The ending does leave the reader wondering, what is next, but I kind of like that the author provided some closure for the reader and a mystery at the same time.
I look forward to reading more books written by this author in the future.
My Rating: 4/5
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
