I had seen this book being talked about everywhere before even picking it up, but for some reason all the hype had me pushing it back. I decided to finally listen to the audio via Libro.fm’s program, which I’m so glad I did.

This book was absolutely mind blowing and spectacular. I had such a fun time with the Hitchcock inspired ‘Strangers on the Train’.

This is one of those thrillers that pulls you in right away and has you so invested in the story, that next thing you know you’re already done.

I definitely enjoyed this book a lot more than I was expecting to. It was fast-paced, intense, twisty, and had different POVs that kept my interest the whole way through.

There are so many detailed layers in this crazy ride of a story, I couldn’t piece it together until it was approaching the end. It’s definitely bingeable and phenomenal!

Thank you so much NetGalley, Atria Books, and Libro.fm for the review copies in exchange for my honest review!

WOW!!! 😳😱🤯😳😱🤯 Save the date NOW and request PTO if you need - you won’t wanna put this book down!!

4.5⭐️ ROUNDED UP!

US Release Date: Tuesday, March 19, 2024

Kill for Me Kill for You takes us on an unpredictable journey through the POV of 3 strangers and how their lives intertwine in the craziest ways possible. While the Strangers on a Train premise has been done before, I promise you the hold-your-breath, page-turning, utterly gripping twists of this story are NOTHING LIKE YOU’VE READ BEFORE! That ending tho! 😮‍💨 👀

Once again, a solid must-read thriller from Steve Cavanagh! 👏👏👏 Thank you sir for your twisted mind and bringing us incredibly enjoyable reads!

Thank you to NetGalley & Atria Books for the opportunity to read this digital ARC in exchange for my honest opinions.

Kill for Me, Kill for You is an exciting thriller that dives into revenge and morality. This book does not disappoint with a face-paced developing story that is as thought-provoking as it is suspenseful. It kept me on my toes and engaged during a long drive across multiple states.

The alliance that Amanda and Wendy form is as unlikely as it is morally questionable - each will kill someone for doing wrong to the other. Both women are well-developed characters with distinct voices that are drawn to each other by their shared pain and quest for justice. One of the best parts of the book is its exploration of the moral complexities of justice. This makes you question revenge, pain and the obsession with making someone else pay.

This book has similar themes to those written before it but is done so differently and so well that I was happy to be along for the twisty ride.

This was a fun, fast read! The plot twists were truly surprising. I do think the end of the book did strain credulity a bit, but I still enjoyed the ride.

Thank you so much to Netgalley and the publisher for so graciously providing me qirh this e-ARC! I am very thankful and once read will update this review placeholder with my thoughts and also review on my Social medias.

MY REVIEW:
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I know I'm behind on reading this one , but WOW, what a book!!!
And then it takes a turn , boy does it TAKE 👏🏼A👏🏼 TURN👏🏼

The amount of suspense that's built up is beyond words. I felt it in ever part of my body. I couldn't WAIT to see what happened next. I stayed up EXTRA late reading, because these POVs had such interesting circumstances, who wouldn't be hooked to their stories?

I've also noticed lately, a few of the thrillers I've picked up are written in the 3rd person, this one included, and I'm not mad about it. I'm usually a 1st person preference person, but they've just been vibin' for me recently.

And to top that, this is my FIRST Steve Cavanaugh. It most certainly won't me my last! 🤯🤯🤯🤯

𝙎𝙔𝙉𝙊𝙋𝙎𝙄𝙎:
One dark evening on New York City’s Upper West Side, two strangers meet by chance. Over drinks, Amanda and Wendy realize they have much in common, including an intense desire for revenge against the men who destroyed their families. As they talk into the night, they come up with the perfect plan: if you kill for me, I’ll kill for you.

In another part of the city, Ruth is home alone when the beautiful brownstone she shares with her husband, Scott, is invaded. She’s attacked by a man with piercing blue eyes, who disappears into the night. Will she ever be able to feel safe again while the blue-eyed stranger is out there?

When two strangers meet they start talking about their families and discover they both have been in some bad situations. Through their conversations they both realize there is a need for revenge and they can help each other out. After agreeing to exact thie revenge on the other persons problem they split ways and even stop communicating reguarly. But then things start going horribly wrong. Will they actually both take revenge or will something stop them?

This was a very good book and kept me on my feet. I kept cheering for the characters until things took a change and I wanted to go after that person too. It was very well written and a book I would recommend!

This book started really well for me. With Ruth, a woman attacked in her own home, and Amanda, who tragically lost her daughter and then her husband, I was immediately intrigued, wondering what was going on and how the different POVs were connected. The addition of the cop's perspective helped build the tension and I didn't see some of the twists coming. Overall, this was a bingeable thriller where you don't know who to trust and with a lot of gritty and gruesome content. it was the last 20-30% where everything went too off the rails for my taste. I would have liked to see Amanda get justice herself. For all the tragedy and drama that occurred, it was wrapped up to nicely and easily.
Thank you Atria Books for the copy through NetGalley in exchange for a review.

This was such a fun ride. I inhaled this book! My jaw was on the floor at a certain twist reveal. Such a great read. I loved it!

Thank you to NetGalley and Atria Books for the E-ARC.

All thoughts and opinions are honest and my own.

Woah! What a surprise book this was! The twists and turns definitely kept me on my toes and I loved reading this one! I expected a quick book about 2 women getting revenge for each other, but this book was so much more. I definitely recommend it!

This was very fine for me. Really enjoyed the first twist but then I just kinda lost interest in this. Also couldn’t get over the fact that all these characters had cars in NYC

This was a fantastic read! I was so invested in both Ruth and Amanda’s stories. I never guessed that we were in 2 separate timelines! When the realization hit me about Ruth’s identity, I was shocked! I still find myself questioning if Ruth would have ended up with a better outcome if her husband had still been around. His storyline was really sad. Another twist I didn’t see coming was the real identity of Billy! I was also shocked about it, but was really glad he took care of Amanda’s daughters killer.

So I was nervous to start this one due to it being so well-loved this winter and spring as THE standout psychological thriller and I didn’t want to be disappointed! However, it absolutely lived up to the high ratings and friend recommendations. From the very beginning, Cavanagh creates a sense of foreboding and intense fear through the trauma that both Amanda and Ruth experience. I knew somehow their plot lines would collide but I absolutely did not see the multiple twists that made my jaw drop. It is hard to give too many details without revealing spoilers, but I absolutely recommend this thriller to readers who enjoy psychological thrillers with multiple POVs, unreliable narrators, serial killers, fast-paced, and revenge themes. Great writing, palatable suspense, and a dark and scary atmosphere that made gave me chills!

What happens when two strangers meet who have the same dark goal without a way to accomplish it? Kill for Me, Kill for You takes you on the journey to see what happens when two strangers decide to trade kills in order to get away with murder.

This story was twisty and propulsive from the very beginning. The premise was incredibly interesting and thought-provoking. I appreciated how the author kept the story moving forward. Unfortunately in order to do there was an incredible suspension of disbelief required. The last big twist tipped this story so far into the implausible that it became difficult for me to enjoy the ending.

Thank you to the author, publisher and NetGalley for an advance copy in exchange for an honest review.

Twisty! I love unpredictable twists and this book was full of them! Another winner by Steve Cavanagh. I was hooked from the first page to the last and flew through the pages. One of my favorite reads of the year for sure!

I absolutely loved this book. Short chapters, suspenseful and an ending I did not see coming! I loved the twist on Strangers on a train. I will definitely read more from this author!

Taking the law into their own hands... Oh yes, they did!

I'm a huge fan of Steve Cavanagh's legal thrillers. Kill for Me, Kill for You is his latest release and is a straight-up crime thriller/psycho-thriller that is intense and will leave your jaw hanging with its twisty ending!

Cavanagh once again nailed it. Fast-paced and entertaining. A must-read! 4.5⭐

I loved this book. The writing was great and the story was so unpredictable and unique and kept me wanting to read

There are certain authors who are expert hook throwers -Steve Cavanagh is one of them. First page and I knew I wasn’t putting this book down until it was finished. I had no idea that it was going to be so much more than I was anticipating. Each page and chapter morphed into another possibility keeping the final resolution out of reach. I admit to having a few twinges of “maybe this has more to do with it than I thought.” And just when I thought it was all clear - bam - left turn, upside down and I was once again left with my mouth open. Just a super great, twisted up, turn me around kind of a well thought out mystery that isn’t over until the very last page. The “fear was literally killing me” - I felt it - how did Cavanagh create the kind of atmosphere that had me sucking for air and unable to put this book down. I am wondering how he will top this amazing psychological thriller.

Many many thanks to Atria Books and NetGalley for a copy.

This is my first read by the author and wow it was quite twisty. I saw the Patricia Highsmith homage in the plot and smiled. I was not prepared for the twists it takes from there. It kept me on my toes and not wanting to put it down.

I will say it started out as a little bit of a slow burn, but that last half more than made up for it. Trust me when I say, don't read any more about this one and go in cold so nothing gets spoiled. If you like high concept cat and mouse, then go pick this one up.
