Wish You Were Her was a fun read, very quick and fast-paced. A good, easy reading thriller. I would definitely recommend this one for anyone who likes psychological thrillers with unreliable narrators.

This had so many twists I literally have whiplash. Were they great twists? Meh. But I do love not knowing who to believe until the bitter end!

“Wish You Were Her” by J.E. Rowney is a powerful, twisty story of second chances, friendship, and survival. It’s about hitting rock bottom and finding the strength to rise again—but also about jealousy, identity, and the desperate longing to create something meaningful. Is it the promise of a fresh start, or something far more dangerous? That question lingers throughout. The suspense is masterfully woven, and just when I thought I had it figured out—Rowney fooled me. By the end, it left me with a profound realization about how far someone will go to rewrite their story.

First, thank you Netgalley and BooksGoSocial for this ARC!

Gotta admit, I had a few other books on my list before this, but I just could not wait! So, today, I did enjoy the sun outside, had some pepsi and spend my day reading this book.

And, oh well, what can I say - J.E. Rowney, you did it again! This summer thriller taking me to paradise - Aruba, to beexact - was surely just what I needed this week! I also can not deny I felt bad for Samantha - feeling like others achieved more in their life while you just... exist, just hit home. Even when my life is good and stable, compared to hers (thank God!).

What else can I say? A very clever plot that will surely stick with me again, just like 'Where No One can hear You' did before. Also, the world and the people living in it are surely not just black and white. No one is just evil, and no one is just innocent. There are many layers of gray, and life sometimes does force people to do the wrong thing out of the right intentions. Or, because they are desperate. Or... well, because they want something that was not meant to be theirs from the beginning.

And, if you wonder now what will be the case in this story? Well, it is on you to read the book and figure it out!
