well… This duo did it again !! In a smooth way Greer Hendricks and Sarah Pekkanen wrote yet another intelligent, suspenseful full of twists, wonderful book. They are here to stay and will undoubtedly surprise us again and again.

This is a story of lies, treachery, and manipulation.
We are following Jessica who signed up for a paid study on ethics and morality and end up developing a relationship with the dcotor in charge : the stunningly beautiful Dr Shields. Jessica needs money, Dr Shields has money, they both have secrets and hidden agendas. One is forced to wonder if a psychologist could be so cunning to manipulate their patients outside their values ?

The blurb gives enough information without giving up too much.
The book is written alternating between Jessica and Dr Shields POV. I’m not sure how the writers cut the work among them, but the writing is very smooth and indiscernible between them.

This book is a perfect choice for a women’s book club. So much to dive into between couple relationship, family relationship, psychologist/patient relationship, life mistakes, the need for money, littles lies and big lies, values, consequences…

I most definitively recommend this book and will personaly be on the lookout for next year’s installment.

***Thank you St Martin Press for this ARC in exchange for an honest review. I feel very privileged***

Very interesting premise for this story, I was sure I knew what would happen next , but the twists kept on coming

Just loved this book Couldn"t wait til i could read it. Fantastic plot great characters and perfect ending. Keep em coming.

Wow! Buckle up and get ready for a ride! Block off your calendar for the next couple of days before you start because you won't want to put this one down. So many wonderful twists & turns! The evil characters draw you in more than any other.. I can usually figure out how a book is going to end, but not this one. It kept me guessing to the last page. Phew!

Okay, y'all - if you liked Hendricks and Pekkanen's other book, The Wife Between Us, or any of the other wife-slightly-crazy twisty thrillers (Gone Girl, The Last Mrs. Parrish to name a couple), pick this up ASAP.

Jess, a typical twenty-something signs up to be a subject in a study in exchange for cash. The way this novel is written makes it clear immediately that there's more to be learned on both sides - about Jess, who seems typical, but has secrets, and about the doctor, who's clearly out for more than just research. The POV of the doctor is slightly creepy, in such a way that you're immediately on edge. Then with Jess, I felt like she was a real person. One second, she's sure about something and a couple pages (or one conversation) later, it all changes. Rest assured, this isn't a story where you'll figure out all the twists.

5/5, loved in, canceled other plans to continue reading.

Such an interesting thriller! I started this one on a whim to have a thriller to read at night and I Loved it! This story goes back and forth from the view point of Jessica, a character who get volunteered in a morality and ethics study and Dr. Shields, the therapist conducting the study. As the reader,you get into both characters mindsets, thoughts,dark personal stories and twisted pasts. Once I started this book I instantly became hooked and there are quite a few twists and turns that I did not expect, which is hard to find in books these days. If you are looking for a well thought out twisted thriller, grab this one right away!

A psychological thrill ride that grabs you from page one and keeps you turning the pages until the last line.

I absolutely love these authors work. I knew after reading "The Wife Between Us" that this book is a must read. It absolutely did not disappoint. It was very suspenseful and kept you guessing. I cannot wait to read more from these two! 5 stars!

What a suspenseful read! Jess is a character we can all relate too. She sees the opportunity to get some extra cash, and she takes it. Little does she know what’s at stake. Dr. Shields is a character that intrigues us and I wasn’t sure what to expect. Great story!

I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of An Anonymous Girl (from NetGalley). All thoughts and opinions are my own.

PHENOMENAL!!! One of my favorites by far! After a chapter or two, I had a hunch that I knew where this morality study was heading... I was not always right, but I was hooked to the point that I wanted to keep reading until I finished it. Reading this novel became an interactive experience for me. I found myself actually TALKING OUT LOUD--trying to give advice to Jess! This was an intellectual drama of the best kind, and I think it could easily translate into a very successful motion picture. (One that would grab the attention of everyone--not just lovers of reading. Please give that some thought!)
A BIG thank you to NetGalley and Greer Hendricks an Sarah Pekkanen for the ARC!

Thank You @netgalley for the advanced copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. Jessica starts out as just another girl trying to get by in New York City and has found a way to earn a little extra money to help her Mom and Dad and little sister out. Sure answering a few questions "anonymously" on a computer seems like a great idea, but that's where and how it All begins to turn sideways!!!! This book will suck you in, so enjoy it! I look forward to reading a lot more by Greer Hendricks!

I had higher expectations for this book after The Couple Next Door. I loved the beginning and middl, but thought the end was weak. A very average thriller.

What started strong ended flat with a "twist" revealing itself earlier than expected. I enjoyed the dual perspectives of Jessica and Dr. Shields as the tension heightened, and it's worth a read because of that aspect.

However, as aforementioned, the "twist" revealed itself earlier than the author intended, which created some eye-rolling worthy moments.

I still recommend a read.

3.5/5trong ended flat with a "twist" revealing itself earlier than expected.

Suspenseful, captivating, impossible to put down. I loved this book. The characters stayed with me long after I turned the last page. Totally a book I can see myself reading for a second time!

Chilling! Makes me watch my back. You just never know! Was surprised by twists and turns. Their second novel didn't disappoint!!

I loved this book! I had just finished reading The Wife Between Us by the same authors, and enjoyed An Anonymous Girl even more. It was a little creepy in the very best way, and I was hooked from the first page. The main character was very likable, and the story kept me guessing the entire time. I highly recommend this book!

This a very exciting book to read. I thoroughly enjoy it. It's a psychological thriller. It also has threaded throughout the story line concerning morality. What would you do and how far would you go, and could you live with yourself. Whether it concerns money, or lack there of, adult, secrets, hurting other, there are so many thing that we have to take into consideration for chosing the right way. Jessica lies her way into a test study give by a Psychiatrist. The study is about morality. The Doctor had decided to do the case study because her husband had cheated on her. Jessica of course doesn't know this, she believes it was a legitimate study. The tests and questions she has to answer are unbelievable.
Great storyline, amazing characters! Definitely worth reading.

Get ready for an experience like no other. You will feel like you are Jess the character in this story that comes to life. From the start it is a page turner that sucks you in and will keep you reading late into the night. There are many twists and an ending you don't expect. I based my review on the ARC I received.

After reading THE WIFE BETWEEN US, I knew I had to read this book and asap. If you haven't read either book, put them on your list.

Jessica Farris, a makeup artist, is just about making ends meet financially. While at a client's home, she overhears her say that she has an appointment the following day for a survey being conducted by a psychiatrist at NYU, which is paying $500, but the client states she is not showing up. Jessica, in an impulse decision, checks the client's phone for the information to take her place. But what ends up being a generic survey turns into so much.

Jessica ends up being Subject 52 but soon learns that she is the sole focus that the psychiatrist wants for her Morality and Ethics study. What ensues is more than Jess has bargained for. Did she just sell her life and soul for financial gain?

An intricate, complex and profound psychological thriller that will leave you breathless. A chilling white-knuckle read!

Highly recommend!

They've done it again. Hendricks & Pekkanen knocked it out of the park with The Wife Between Us and sometimes I'm hesitant to read more of the same author(s) because I worry subsequent books won't live up to the reputation. THIS ONE DID! It took me a bit to get used to the alternating chapters, but that was mostly because the style of writing and points of view were totally different than the previous chapter. Once it sunk in that I was SUPPOSED to feel differently than the previous chapter, I was entranced and couldn't stop reading this. It'll make you think about all the "anonymous" surveys you take; it'll make you think about your own morality; it'll keep you turning the pages, anxious to see how it all wraps up...or doesn't.
Thank you to St. Martin's Press for an eARC and the opportunity to read and rate this book.
