I really didn’t like this book. From the consistent repetition to the whiny main characters feelings, I was over it.
I liked the premise, a debut author going on a book tour and finding herself and her family being stalked by someone, but from the beginning there was nothing subtle about this story. The main character is constantly looking over her shoulder and feeling like people are making comments towards about things only she knows about. It felt really contrived.
I also was tired of Tessa bemoaning the constant fact that she was away from home and was available for her family🙄.
This was my time reading this author and I’m thinking she might not be my style.
Thanks to NetGalley and the publishers for the advanced copy in exchange for a honest opinion. 2⭐️

Hank Phillippi Ryan is becoming one of my favorite authors! She has written another amazing, suspenseful thriller in her book, All This Could Be Yours! She kept me intrigued from the very start until the very last page.
She writes about an author that is becoming very successful and tells of the trials of being a wife, a mother, and a celebrity who's going around the cities on a book tour. Also, she is pursued by a stalker while on this tour.
My advise is to read this book and find out what happens. You won't regret taking the time to read All This Could Be Yours!

All of Tessa's dream has come true! She becomes a best selling author with a huge following, has a loving husband, two wonderful children, and a nice new house she calls home. While on tour though things become strange and Tessa starts to feel like someone is messing with her. Can Tessa figure out who before her whole world is taken away?

I found this book interesting and had a different premise. I found it hard to read at times though with Tessa's paranoia. It seemed a bit repetitive and I found the ending a bit of a letdown.

Thank you to Netgalley and to the publishers for allowing me to read this advanced copy in exchange for my honest opinion.

All This Could Be Yours is the latest mystery/suspense novel from Hank Philippi Ryan. Tessa, the FMC, a debut author, is on a three week book tour promoting her blockbuster bestselling novel. But things aren’t always as wonderful as they seem.

This was my first book by Hank Phillippi Ryan. I really enjoyed the cat and mouse suspense premise and the behind the scenes look into book touring and the publishing world. The tension building was great and the characters were well written and all were easily questionable as a possible suspected stalker. However, it did feel a little repetitive which may have been on purpose to convey the repetitiveness the MC was feeling from the day after day of what is becoming a very tension and exhausting tour…same presentation, different day, different city. It also was a little confusing at times with the real title of the book being the same as the title of the MCs book which was also a big play on words throughout the story and plot.

The audiobook was a great addition and created quite a tension-filled, immersive experience. The narrator, Sarah Mollo-Christensen, did a great job with tone and voice differentiating the multiple questionable characters, and with setting the mysterious, atmospheric vibes. Sarah Mollo-Christensen definitely helped bring the story and characters to life and delivered a flawless performance from start to finish.

All This Could Be Yours by Hank Philippi Ryan, it’s as if this summer all my favorite authors are losing their pazaaz because once again after reading this book by an author I love I sadly only found it OK. In Miss Ryan’s defense I am not a big fan of a book that is pushed along by the main characters inner dialogue at the best of times but Tessa drove me crazy. She is a debut author who was previously an influencer and has a blog called Moms Who Dream. So now that she’s written a hit book with an iconic character like Annabelle life couldn’t be better. Of course because this is a thriller you know right when you hit the top is when you start sliding down the other side because when she finds a gold locket with a picture in it in her hotel room she goes live to get her followers to help her fine #LocketMom,so she can find the owner and she can give it back. This is when it all begins strange packages her things go missing only to appear later she soon learned someone is following her but who and why? this all starts when she’s three weeks in to her first Book Tours and wants nothing but to be at home a home she’s only slept in once because her husband after she got her book advance surprise her with this new beautiful home and despite his no job his plans are to furnace it with all new furniture and oh yeah it may need a little Work. She’s fine with all of that being the doormat that she is through throughout the book we get her calling home and if one of the kids is a little sick or not they don’t answer the phone it must be because they’re all dead or on the way to the hospital and it doesn’t help matters that her husband Henry is hanging out with the new neighbors a married woman named Nelly whose husband is out of town and of course the lovely Barbara and her lovable dogs. we had to suffer through everybody that Tessa saw in daily life she gave a dark and twisted story too and of course it all pertain to her she keeps referring to the bad incident that happened when she was 10 and when she was 15 her best friend Emily. is the person that’s after Tessa someone from her past or is it a fan who would want to ruin the life of beloved author and influencer Tessa? I found the ending of this book Ross and not the wall ending I usually expect from the author and again I just think this is an awful year for many of my favorite writers so I hope my next read is better. #NetGalley, #TheBlindReviewer, #MyHonestReview,#HankPhilippeRyan, #AllOfThisCouldBeYours,

Tessa has worked hard to build a good life, but when her past suddenly catches up with her, everything she cares about is at risk. As the secrets pile up and danger closes in, she has to face the truth before it tears apart her career, her family, and even her future.

I was hooked from page one and honestly never let go. I thought I had the mystery figured out at one point, but my guess fell apart fast, which only made me read even faster. The final reveal completely surprised me, and the payoff was so good. Hank Phillippi Ryan knows how to keep a story tight, suspenseful, and full of energy all the way to the end.

This book is such a great mix of psychological thriller and edge-of-your-seat suspense. The emotional stakes feel sky-high, and you can really sense Tessa’s unease, her determination, and that desperate drive to protect everything she’s built. It’s layered with twists and tension, but also has a really human core that makes you care about what happens next.

I haven’t enjoyed a thriller this much in a while, and since this was my first by this author, I can promise it won’t be my last. If you love thrillers that keep you guessing until the very last chapter, this one’s a must-read. Solid 4.5 stars from me!

Thank you to NetGalley and St. Martin's Press for the ebook in exchange for my honest review. All opinions are my own.

A book tour by the author of a new novel sounds celebratory—meeting fans excited to welcome the latest work by their favorite, hearing people’s responses to a long-incubated project, and being energized by an enthusiastic reception after working for so many months in solitude. However joyous, it also sounds like a slog: city after city, hotel after hotel, having to make nice to dozens and hundreds of strangers while utterly exhausted—all in the interest of promotion and book sales. Of course best-selling novelist Hank Phillippi Ryan has an insider’s intimate knowledge of all of this. Her latest novel asks us to consider what might happen if a book tour actually felt sinister and terrifying. The story unfolds with relentless suspense as successful novelist Tessa travels the country and begins to wonder whether she’s being followed and why. It’s the sort of book that makes you keep wanting to turn the pages while also being scared of what awful thing you might encounter in the next chapter. At some point I anticipated how things would turn out but remained no less riveted to the book, which is a sign of masterful storytelling. Fans might feel weird attending a book launch event and asking the author to sign a copy of this one!

Thanks to Netgalley and St. Martin’s Press for a digital advance review copy.

Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for the early copy of the book.
I was very curious about this one and unfortunately this book did not work out for me. The main issue I had was how repetitive the story was and how tiring it was listening to the same conversation inside the main character head. I also was so confused with what kind of book did she actually write because the way she treated the fans and fans reacted was very cult self-help like.

What worked and I think author did great was the keeping readers interested with the cliffhangers at the end of the chapters. While i wanted to skip pages of the same information, I definitely wanted to continue reading. I wish the book had more variety to it.

Tess Calloway is a debut author with a best selling novel. Ready to embark on her first book tour with a mixture of excitement and trepidation, she seems to be hiding a secret from everyone. Tess can be her own worst enemy and keeping a long held secret can be her undoing.

This was a cross of psychological twists and family drama. The tension at the beginning can be cut with a knife. Short chapter added to the suspense. There were quite a few red herrings some innocent, others threw me completely off. There were times I put the book down for a break when a certain situation became intense. Tess is suspicious of everyone, some could have been solved easily if she had honest conversations. I must say I’ll never look at a hotel stay the same. When we finally realize what is really going on, all the scenarios are wrapped up a little too quickly. We also get a glimpse into what it takes to put on a book tour and the demands on all involved.

Thanks to Minotaur Books and NetGalley for this ARC. This is my honest opinion.

Debut sensation Tessa Calloway is on a whirlwind book tour. But there’s a chilling problem with Tessa’s triumphant book tour—she soon discovers she is being stalked by someone who’s obsessed not only with sabotaging her career, but also with destroying her perfect family back home.

I will say, I enjoyed the second half of the book better than the first half. It starts a bit slow. And I really did not like Tessa in the first half of this book. She is whiny and over the top paranoid about her family. She truly did not trust her husband to handle the kids. This got on my nerves a bit.

But as the tale moves along, the intensity builds and builds. And Tessa finally seems to grow up and do something about her strange situation. And let me tell you…her strange situation is brilliant. HPR creativity comes shining through!

The narrator, Sarah Mollo-Christensen, did a very good job. Lots of voices to deal with and she did it well, even the kids.

Need a twisted story which is full of life altering secrets…THIS IS IT! Grab your copy today.

I received this novel from the publisher for a honest review.

Thank you Hank Phillipi Ryan and St Martin’s Press for the opportunity to read an early copy of this book. Hank Phillipi Ryan didn’t disappoint as usual. Fast paced, keeps you wanting for more. Loved this book.

If this one is not on your radar, it should be. Hank Phillippi Ryan will have you white knuckling it through the twists in ALL THIS COULD BE YOURS. What happens when Tessa’s “dream come true” becomes a nightmare when something from her past seems to return to haunt her? I wasn’t quite sure who to trust and questioned my judgement on more than one occasion. I love that this is a book about an author on a book tour… for a book by the same name. Could all this be Tessa’s? This will be a top read of 2025!
Thank you to the publisher for the opportunity to read an advanced copy of the novel. All opinions are my own and freely given.

There were a few spots that felt a little too out-there to be believable but overall this kept my attention. I liked the mix of a traditional thriller and a view into the experiences of a traveling author.

This was a very interesting concept that really paid off in the end. An author on a book tour has a stalker. Who could it be? Someone clearly from her past who knows things she thought she had buried long ago, but how did the stalker find out. Throw in red herrings, amp up the suspense and the thrill ride is top notch. I can usually figure these types of stories out, but not this one. Good job on the ending.

I absolutely loved All This Could Be Yours! It kept my interest page after page, city after city, and author event afer author event.

It follows Tessa as she tours the country on a book tour while her husband and two children are left at home to settle into their newly-purchased home. If you are like me, you'll find yourself pondering everything in the book, wondering if it's another unhappy surprise coming...or if it's just everyday ordinary life.

As always, the author has written a book that sucked me in right away, was very well paced and filled with just enough tension to keep you reading, but not so much craziness that I said no, there's no way this would happen. I found myself wondering what was going to happen next as I went about daily life, wishing I could still be reading.

Do yourself a favor and pick up a copy of All This Could Be Yours!

Thank you to the author, publisher, and Netgalley for an ARC at my request. All thoughts, as always, are my own.

Tessa Calloway was living her best life. Hot on the heels of her best-selling book, she’s on a whirlwind US book tour, with a new city every day, while her husband Henry is at home with her kids, Zack and Olivia. They’ve recently moved into a large, expensive mansion on the east coast, and the family is dependent on the success of this tour as Henry is unemployed.
Her book is all about female empowerment over the patriarchy and taking back what’s yours. It gives her a surge of confidence when she hears from her fans about how her book has changed their lives and how inspirational it is when her main character, Annabelle, takes charge in the office and takes back her life and career.
However, Tessa has a few challenges herself and some secrets in her past, some of which she may or may not be aware of.
My only beef with this book is that it’s not until 70% in do you find out who the perpetrator is behind the blackmail. And the reason is totally predictable, due to some precise foreshadowing early in the book.
All along the tour little things keep happening, some items are missing, then turn up in odd spots later; fans start sending letters to her home address, something she hasn’t given out; someone keeps asking questions in the Q&A sessions about a time and place that Tessa has tried to forget. But how could they know this information? Is she imagining these events?
Someone has access to her schedule, hotels, and all the bookstores she is going to. It’s just a matter of time before her perfect existence is shattered by this earth-shattering information. And on the home front, of course, she suspects that Henry is having an affair with the new attractive neighbor.
Despite writing all about female empowerment, Tessa seems scattered and weakened by it all. You’re yearning for her to take charge and kick ass, just like Annabelle would. Her family’s characters are not that well developed. Henry is the typical bored, handsome husband, easily suspected; and the kids are your standard whiny teenagers.
The author tries to make this about how to juggle fame and family, but Tessa just comes across as a harried, sleep deprived author, just trying to make it to her next city unscathed.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the ARC!

All This Could Be Yours by Hank Phillippi Ryan in an engaging thriller about a best selling author on tour. I loved the short chapters and I thought the ending was satisfying, resolving all of the open questions well. The plot was tense and kept me engaged and excited to keep reading.

My only complaint is that sometimes I find it a little self-indulgent for an author to write a book about being an author. Some parts of this book, especially how fans approached Tessa about being inspired by her main character Annabelle, were a little much for me.

Overall, All This Could Be Yours is a fun little thriller that's great for someone who likes a tense atmosphere and books about the writing/publishing world.

“The fictional escape books give us can also be an education, can’t it? It can take us places we never dreamed we could go.”

This book is modern and so relevant to the times of Instagram lives, social media comments, and parasocial relationships. The chapters are short, the characters well developed and interesting, and the mystery intense. All of the makings of a fabulous mystery/thriller. I loved it!

Excuse me while I add all of her backlist to my tbr. 📚 ❤️

Thank you SO MUCH to Netgalley and St. Martin’s Press for the ARC in exchange for my honest thoughts.

Imagine if you will, an author who is touring the country to promote their book called "All This Could Be Yours"...written by an author who by now is touring bookstores to promote her book called "All This Could Be Yours". And this is where we are with Hank Phillippi Ryan's current thriller that held me captivated and had me wanting to get to the end, but also wanting it to last. I've met Ms Ryan as a moderator for other authors at book events and I spent many years watching her on our local news. This, however, is the first book of hers I've read and I'm sad that I didn't start sooner. Having been to several types of events, I have seen the voracity of fans when meeting their unicorn authors, especially bigger named authors. I've also seen how crazy some can get. This made this story even more intriguing to me. Tessa's ship has finally come in. She is doing something she loves - writing and getting all the accolades afforded to her for writing a best seller. But as with most things these days, there is a dark underbelly that creeps into her whirlwind travels and some has to do with secrets kept and secrets revealed. I enjoyed the ride immensely and am absolutely going to read more from Ms. Ryan.

I have really liked previous books I had read from this author, so I was excited to read this one. I really liked that the main character was an author, I’ve always been drawn to books with that trope. This book starts off a little slow but once it takes off, you won’t want to put it down.
