Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Beyond amazing I enjoyed this book so very much. The characters and storyline were fantastic. The ending I did not see coming Could not put down nor did I want to.

Violet Young is the mommy vlogger that everyone follows and just can’t get enough of. She has the perfect husband and the 3 adorable children, and people can’t wait to watch her next vlog.

Except that all of sudden, without any warning all of Violet’s social media accounts disappear, leaving everyone to wonder what happened! Where is she? Did her adoring husband do something? Do you really know who Violet Young really is?

Told from the perspective of two of her biggest fans, obsessed with finding out the truth, their search quickly starts to spin a web of lies, betrayal and shocking consequences.

This book was fantastic! I loved the alternate storytelling from the different perspectives. It kept me on my toes and guessing. I really couldn’t wait to see what would happen next. I found myself obsessing about Violet, wondering, what really did happen to her!

This one was ok. It wasn’t the most exciting or thrilling book that I’ve ever read but it still held my attention on the whole.

This was a well developed story line with plenty of interesting characters. Personally it wasn't an edge of seat thriller for me and I felt it was a bit long and drawn out and I was glad when I had finished it.

Thank you to Netgalley and Crooked Lane Books for giving me the opportunity to read this book.

Even though I know that books that center so heavily around the social media of today will not age as gracefully as other technologically based books, I still have the urge to pick them up. This book was a really average book but it didn't feel like a thriller at all. I am also very hesitant to say it even felt like a mystery because the whole mystery of it came from the fact that none of the three characters used as narrators revealed all that they knew until they needed to.

It was a really easy to read book and I think that some people would enjoy it but I was definitely not one of those people. All of the characters frustrated me and not in a good way. Lily was a heavy drinker with a young child and it hurt to read her sections, depressing and frustrating. Yvonne had the potential to be a good character but all of her sections were riddled with lines that talked down to women. And there was an entire scene in which she and a random character lamented over how inconvenient it was that someone had killed themselves by jumping in front of a train. (Not a spoiler btw, it just was the reason why the trains were delayed one day). This whole part had me really tempted to just put the book down, the lack of empathy was strong and I was really disappointed.

Like I had said earlier, every twist in this book was not only easy to figure out but also known by at least one of the narrators and it made zero sense to me whatsoever how this could be considered a mystery or a thriller. Sure, it gave off those vibes but once I realized that not one piece of the story was truly missing just made me lose all interest. That partnered with the unhealthy characteristics of each character turned into a disappointing reading experience for me. The ending felt rushed and overall I just wasn't a huge fan of this.

Great book about how what we see online isn't always the truth. The ending really surprised me and I kept on liking the characters in the book and then thinking maybe not.

I really enjoyed this book! It was very suspenseful and engaging. There were several surprising twists I hadn’t expected. Highly recommend!

I really enjoyed this book. It sure makes you think about how our information when put on social media could affect our lives and the lives of others. Lots of twists and turns. Thanks to NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this book.

This book just didn't work for me. I couldn't stand any of the characters: dishonest, promiscuous and drunks for the most part. Very disappointing.

I could not finish this book. I got very bored with the whole “vlogger person” Violet who millions followed and then she disappeared. I mean, really? Thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this book for an honest review. Just not for me.

Thank you for the opportunity to read this book and I really enjoyed it. This book was nothing what I expected but it was a insight to how the world is today and the graphic description of the baby loss was so truthful. I do wish I had bit more of lily life in the epilogue. But it brilliantly written and will defo be looking up Charlottes other books!!

I really enjoyed reading Unfollow Me by Charlotte Duckworth. It was not at all what I was expecting, but it was a pleasant surprise. Unfollow Me is told from a few different points of view after a popular mommy blogger deletes all her social media and seemingly disappears. Lily and Yvonne are both real characters that are fun to follow and figure out the mystery of Violet through their eyes. 4 stars.

Violet is a very popular vlogger with her YouTube channel Violetisblue which she started to talk about her experience with postpartum depression. However, it has morphed into something that also features her husband, her children, her home. She is married to handsome Henry and has lots of fans...and many woman who are jealous of her comfortable lifestyle.
Then...Violet disappears - all of her social media sites have been shut down which sets her mummy followers all of a twitter.
I couldn’t put this book down. The story is told by Henry, Lily and Yvonne and they all have their secrets. The storyline is so very clever - so nice and twisty. The characters are fully fleshed out. Highly recommended. Ms. Duckworth has written another book called “The Rival”. You can be sure I’ll be buying that one.
Thanks to NetGalley for this arc in exchange for an honest review

This fast-paced read is centered around Violet, a vlogger mom of 3, who suddenly disappears from social media, leaving thousands of fans, most notably Yvonne and Lily, frantic to find out what happened to her. The story is told primarily from Yvonne's and Lily's POVs as they try to find out what happened to Violet.

There was a delicious sense of discomfort throughout the entire book, as you catch snippets of what was going on in Violet's life woven in with the things that Yvonne and Lily are doing to track her down, leaving you wondering what the relationships between these (and other) characters are really like and where the truth really lies.

I would recommend this book for anyone that likes suspense, even if you aren't sure you're interested in the vlogger theme that is so relevant for our times. There is something for everyone in this story.

Thanks to Netgalley for providing me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Violet has a blessed life. A lovely home, engages hands on with her three beautiful daughters and has an attractive, doting husband. All of this is painstakingly captured on camera for the world to see. With a mega following on youtube, facebook, instagram and more, mommy vlogger Violet suddenly deletes all trace of her social media career; all accounts, all channels, leaving her public to wonder what has happened to her.

This book is told in multiple points of view by people who want to know that Violet is safe, from people that hate her guts and people who know her personally. It was kind of terrifying actually. It was a contemporary thriller that had the pacing and very much reminded me of Big Little Lies style of story telling.

This was truly so much fun to read. It was a very twisty, turny view into the world of youtube mommy vloggers, or really anyone who has a strong online presence or is an influencer. You don't always take into consideration how much of your real life is broadcasted and how many of your personal details are given so freely to people when you share everything online. What happens when that important information is used by someone who may not care about your best interests... or worse; actively want to be a part in your downfall? I could go on and on about trolls and negativity and rude comments... but I won't

Unfollow Me tells the story of three women, a single mother, Lily, a woman with issues conceiving, Yvonne and Violet, the influencer mommy who goes on a media blackout with no warning. The interesting thing about this premise is that 20 years ago this would not have been a book. The society we find ourselves now has lent to a lack of privacy that leads to obsession. Violet is seen as the perfect beautiful mother and wife, whose life is so easy and handling her three kids has been even easier. After creating her Youtube channel to connect with others and share her struggles with PND (post-natal depression), mothers and soon-to-bes flock to offer sympathy, criticism and advice.

The book begins when Violet goes dark - all of her social media accounts and videos have been deleted, leading her followers to speculate that something happened to her. (Because they know her, she wouldn’t just do that) Lily is particularly obsessed, hatching a plan to check out her house and her daughter’s school. Yvonne is stuck not being able to get pregnant by her husband. His sperm count is low and they have tried everything. Obsession is not her drug of choice but envy.

Tensions spark and collide as her loyal followers come out from behind the screen and into her life. This was the most terrifying part of the book. The writing was sharp and tight and everything mentioned tied back to something that was necessary for the story to make sense. The webs were so intricate and I was dumbstruck with how many things were tied up in each other. I thought that I knew what happened and I was completely wrong.

I would recommend this. If anything to just see where this trend is going, with Followers coming out in January, I’m excited about this new foray in fiction.

Violet is a hugely popular social media influencer with followers across several platforms. She shares every bit of her life as a mom with her audience until all of a sudden...she's gone. Fans await her posts, released daily like clockwork only to log in and find content is unavailable. Suspicion begins in online forums, what happened to Violet? Did she suddenly realize she puts too much of her and her children online? Did her husband Henry have anything to do with her disappearance? Her "fans" want to know.

This book takes us into the lives of two people who watch Violets videos. First we meet Lilly. A single mom with a drinking problem who seems a bit too obsessed with Violet and no so much with her own child. I immediately disliked her and the rest of the book did nothing to change my mind.

Yvonne, newly married and struggling to conceive a child with her new husband Simon. She's not exactly a fan of Violet's, more like a spectator. She is not exactly likable either, but as her motives are revealed I liked her better than Lilly.

Eventually, we get a few chapters from Henry. Most of what he has to say is not about Violet so it doesn't really help us get to know her much. Violet is referred to so much by everyone in the story but we never really get to know her at all. The book only has two real events at all. 1. When Violet disappears from social media at the beginning. 2. When we find out why at the end. Otherwise, this book is just a boring chronicle of two people who struggle with their day to day life for different reasons.

Ok this book is all about our obsession with influencers or social media stars who gain their fame through blogging on internet about their lives and the people who literally eat, sleep and drink up every word and photo. This new form of celebrity also brings keyboard warriors and stalkers who feel they own you and have them right to question every move e and choice you make and post hate and vile as well as love. After all isn’t this what they sign up for? For the GoMummys group their obsession/love of Violets blog takes a scary turn after age mysteriously disappears and closes down her accounts. What has happened and could her husband have done the unthinkable? The group are determined to find out. This book does not disappoint and openly addresses the beauty and the darkness of the internet.

2.5 stars rounded down

I was intrigued by the social media/mommy vlogger aspect of this book, but it ultimately didn't deliver. There was no suspense or tension to keep me hooked and I had trouble connecting with the main characters. I also had trouble keeping track of the large number of side characters who were unnecessary to the plot. I would have liked to see a few chapters narrated by Violet, as I feel the reader never gets to know her even though she is the main focus/obsession of the two narrators.

Could not put it down! From the first pages, you're plunged into the worlds of complex characters with dark secrets. Throughout the entire story, the twists and turns keep you guessing and it isn't until the very end do you get the full picture. Violet is a social media queen, advocating for moms who do it all while battling postnatal depression. One morning, all her platforms are black, no Instagram, no YouTube, nothing, she disappears. Followers are confused and skeptical, worried, and alarmed. Some go to extreme lengths to solve the mystery of the missing influencer, while others are more involved with the disappearance than they're letting on. Unfollow Me highlights the harsh nature of the comparisons mothers make to the unrealistic images they consume online.
