Thank you to NetGalley and Blackstone Publishing for providing this book, with my honest review below.

Don’t Tell Me How To Die was delightful, bringing together a few different genres but shining in its mystery and thriller element. Maggie is our main character and we get to see her in the present when she’s been given a prognosis of death which she has been preparing for all her life. We get to explore the why behind that in great flashbacks which visit her young adulthood and how her mother’s death shaped some less than stellar behavior. Couple that with a few (yes few) mysteries in the present and this is just a perfect read.

What I loved about this book was the layering from the past that make the final chapters extremely satisfying, with a true understanding of how everything got to an amazing finale.
