Another fast paced thriller to get out of a slump📚

⭐️ Rating: 4/5: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

IN THE SMALL TOWN OF RAINFALL...

A HUSBAND AND PERSONAL DRIVER SETS OUT TO FIND THE DEPRAVED SAVAGE WHO RAPED AND MURDERED HIS BELOVED WIFE. HE BELIEVES THE CULPRIT IS THE SAME MYSTERIOUS MAN WHO STALKED HER WHEN SHE WAS STILL ALIVE.

FUELED BY RAGE AND DRIVEN BY VENGEANCE — HE'LL NAVIGATE THROUGH DARK SECRETS AND LIES WHILE CROSSING SUSPECTS OFF HIS LIST ONE-BY-ONE. HE WON'T STOP UNTIL HE EXACTS REVENGE AND DOES RIGHT BY HIS LATE WIFE.

THROUGHOUT THIS DANGEROUS TASK, HE SLOWLY UNCOVERS A DARK, SINISTER MYSTERY RELATING TO MULTIPLE WOMEN IN RAINFALL WHO SUDDENLY VANISHED, NEVER TO BE SEEN AGAIN...

My opinion:

This was good I didn’t guess the ending at all but there were a few parts that just dragged in some areas. Like you know when there’s unnecessary detail and you’re like AHHHH get to the point. That’s me at 5% of this book or else it would be 5/5. With that being said, the book's pacing is still relentless, propelling us forward with each revelation. Just when I thought I may have figured it out, Spencer throws another curveball, which left me hungry for more. The suspense builds steadily, culminating in a surprise ending that defies expectations, shocking really!

Fast-paced books to get you out of a reading slump
Nothing kills a reading slump faster than a short, unputdownable book, the kind that grabs you from page one, moves fast, and makes you feel like a reading genius because you finished it in one sitting. Or would I say… I'm too lazy for hundred pages kind of book, I need short one please!

The front cover of 'Never Let You Go' by Chevy Stevens is held against a blurred bookshelf with string lights. Text overlays describe it as 'CHARACTER DRIVEN WITH UNEXPECTED TWISTS' and a 'SLOW BURNER', noting 'WHOLESOME ENDING' is crossed out.

Slow burn thriller 🫣🔪
My first Chevy Stevens book was “Those Girls”, and if you haven’t read it yet I highly recommend! It’s a fantastic book, but also very (very) heavy so make sure you read the trigger warnings. Because I loved that book so much, I was expecting the same energy in this novel. However, that is not
