If you love Big Brother, Love is Blind or any of those other reality shows like that, you will love this book. I listened to the audiobook and the narrator was very good.

It starts off with a bunch of typical reality stars coming to the dessert Island and then follows them around in true reality fashion for the show Iconic. Many of them seem like despicable people and the other stars are more than happy to point out who they are. Most of the guests are not likeable and are hard to keep track of. The host like Julie Chen is constantly reading tweets or things posted to other social media. So there is a lot of @ this or that person and # this or that. I find that annoying as it totally ruins books for me. I didn't even care for the mystery part as I was already over these people by the time any of that happens.

Thanks to the Publisher and NetGalley for the ARC audiobook.

If you count trashy reality TV like Love is Blind among your guilty pleasures, if you like thriller chockful of despicable cat characters, then this one is for you!

Premise - a group of typical reality star types (think cast of Netflix’s The Perfect Match) gather on set of the hottest new reality competition show. As the stakes rise and the interpersonal tensions flare, one of them isn’t going to make it home alive…

I loved this! Give me more reality tv thrillers, it’s a match made in heaven! I literally could not get enough - I listened to the audiobook version, narrated by Zura Johnson, and I was hanging on until the very last word. I kept meaning to pause, but I just couldn’t do it! Johnson did a beautiful job with the narration, keeping me hooked in and adding extra personality and color to Fitzgerald’s gripping story. The two made a great team!

Thanks, NetGalley and Tantor Audio, for the audio ARC in exchange for an honest review. What a treat!
