Telling Tuesday…

What does this book tell you?

I will say that for me, it left me in a tizzy. I was completely frantic while flipping the pages. I’m not sure how I survived holding my breath throughout this entire book! My pulse rapidly pulsed throughout my body. I was completely consumed as the words glittered gracefully across the pages.

When you love thrillers as much as I do, you would think I would get used to this feeling.

I don’t..

Suspense? Check. Thrilling? Check. Mind blowing twist? You betcha!

Joshilyn Jackson, you never seem to amaze me.

With My Little Eye

Teaser :

It started with the letters…

For actress Meribel Mills, disturbing fan mail is part of the price of fame. So when she starts getting creepy letters written in fruit-scented marker she is mostly unphased and diligently files them along with her other messages from unhinged fans. After all, she’s a single mom approaching forty, not the kind of hot young celeb who sparks dangerous obsessions. But there’s something different about Marker Man…

He’s been in her home…

Meribel’s sheets smell of unfamiliar cologne, and objects have gone missing around the house. Plus, the letters have become more perverse, with drawings of a naked Meribel tied up or chopped into pieces. While the police insist that stalkers hardly ever escalate to violence, Meribel has played the dead girl one too many times on TV to risk becoming her in real life. She and her daughter move from Los Angeles to Atlanta for a fresh start—but no distance is great enough.

He’s watching her…

Years of being in front of a camera have given Meribel a superpower—she can feel eyes on her, a creeping sensation like bees inside her skin. And someone definitely has her in their sights. Could Marker Man have followed her all the way across the country?

Who else might be watching—her ex-husband? The lover she left behind in LA? Her new neighbor? Suddenly, every man in her life is a suspect, but she can’t keep herself and her daughter safe from a monster she can’t identify. When the paths of all of these men collide, Meribel will find herself alone in the fight of her life, desperate to protect those she loves as danger closes in from all sides.
If he can't have her, no one can.

I promise you, this is a book you do not want to miss and I am so grateful to have been given the opportunity to read and review this sure to be best seller before it hits the shelves!

Thanks to NetGalley for allowing me to read this in exchange for an honest opinion.

I was actually super excited for this one, but I think my expectations were too high from Jackson’s previous work, all of which I have LOVED. This seemed very different from her other books, so much so that I had to go back and double check that it was actually Joshilyn Jackson I was reading. It wasn’t as literary as her other books, and it seemed more like a typical Megan Miranda or Lisa Jewell book? Still a good read, I just wonder why the shift. Fast paced and told from a few different perspectives, with some twists and turns I did not expect.

Fast paced suspense thriller with so much going on that from the first page my head was spinning in a good way. Who was her stalker? Did her really follow her cross country? Are the other men in her life good or bad?
The characters are wonderful, especially the way Jackson wrote Honor. Quick read you won’t put down.

I just love Joshilyn Jackson books! When I read the synopsis of With My Little Eye I could not wait to get started, and it definitely did not disappoint! Letters, creepy mail, and stalkers, all make for the perfect thriller. Excellent writing and plot development as always. Highly recommend picking this one up!

Want to be kept on your toes with a fast paced thriller?! Read Joshilyn Jackson. I loved Mother May I and this new release is almost as good! Started out a bit slower and I was worried it was going to be your typical "beautiful woman being stalked" book, but true to Jackson's fashion, she made it her own! Once the plot started rolling I couldn't put it down. The insight into the stalkers mind was a tad disturbing, but also very realistic. I Loved how the character of Honor was written. Jackson really drew on the strengths and uniqueness that makes parenting a child on the autism spectrum equally hard and wonderful. The ending came quickly but I definitely recommend this high octane thriller! #withmylittleeye #joshilynjackson #netgalley #goodreads

Joshilyn Jackson has a winner on her hands with "With My Little Eye". It kept me engaged the whole way through.

Yet another amazing domestic thriller from Joshilyn Jackson! I loved the feeling of darkness emanating from the story, which definitely had a bit of a goth feel to it. The perfect read for fall!

Meribel Mills is a successful actress and as a result has become blase about the the fan mail she receives, some flattering, some weird, some just plain creepy. That’s why initially she doesn’t bat an eyelash at the odd letters she received that are written in scented marker. But she is alarmed when it’s obvious that Marker Man, as she calls him, has been in her house, has lain beneath her sheets. She informs the police when his letters become even more disturbing – he’s now including vivid drawings of the terrible things he wants to do to Meribel. Unfortunately, the police offer little help, insisting that the odds are that Meribel’s stalker won’t harm her. Left to defend herself, Meribel begins to look at all the men she knows, from an ex to a neighbor to mere acquaintances, not knowing who s behind this campaign of terror. Jackson hi lights the terror that only women can understand, this is a nail biter
