Not completely my cup of tea, but its not your typical thriller, it's set in Hollywood and this superstar thinks she's a 60s private detective. It's super action packed and I definitely have some people to recommend it to.

hank you Net Galley for the advanced copy of Far Out to be released January 2024. This thriller is actioned packed. I felt like I was watching this on TV with its descriptive action. Blake Deco is married to a movie star Goldie Saint Helen in Hollywood. She is in an automobile crash that causes her to have dissociative amnesia. She thinks she is living in the 60’s and that era takes over her personality throughout a lot of the book which gives the book an added element of humor. The overall theme of the story is the dangers of conservatorship as her lawyers try to take over her millions. This is not your typical thriller but is funny, tense, and action packed all at the same time!

The delusions in this book are what made it original, fun, and exciting. I did get a bit confused in some places as there was so much to follow, but all in all I enjoyed this read despite it not being something I would ordinarily pick up.

GooldieSaint Helen is angry her husbands Cat has ruined all of her muffins and she needs to get away for a few days but unfortunately she has an accident that causes her to have a type of amnesia that makes her believe she is someone else in her case she thinks she’s gypsy rose a female detective in the mid-70s who loves to say far out and wear hippie type close this was a role she was about to do in a movie but unfortunately it’s now is her reality and one her husband Blake has to go along with. When she wrecked her Lexus some college students helped her escape the car that was on fire and in her delusion she thinks one of them is Candace a girl who is hooked up with a cult that is also in Kahoot with the CIA and she is in danger of being in the MK ultra psychedelic program so when Blake takes “gypsy“ to Laguna Beach to get her away from the paparazzi he is shocked to see the college student is there and this is only more proof to gypsy that she is on the right track. As if his wife thinking she is a 70s female detective wasn’t bad enough little do they know but someone is actually out to get Goldie Saint Helen but why and who is it? This book was so much fun I loved Blake and thought he was such a good devoted husband not to mention the lol moments in the 70s references were so great this really was a great idea for Brooke AN a greatly executed plot I loved it and highly recommend it I really enjoyed this book so much I’ve received it from NetGalley and publisher but I am leaving this review voluntarily please forgive any mistakes as I am blind and dictate my review.
