Run Baby Run

Oh my god, I was not expecting a book full of plot twists! I think my head did explode a little. Thank you Netgalley and the publisher for letting me read this book before publication.

Darcy is successful self-made entrepreneur and travel writer from a small town in Texas. Raised by a single mother, she builted a life she is now proud of and do not resemble at all the poverty she grew up in. She is about to get married to the perfect man, who turns out to be Darcy's best friend, Chloe. Everything seems perfect from the outside, until one week before she gets married, Darcy's mother, Marja, asks her to join her on a road trip. This doesn't sound like a big deal until you realize Marja ghosted Darcy three years ago. Darcy is pressured to accept, and ends up flying to Texas to reunite with her mother and drive up together to Chicago.

When Darcy meets Marja in Texas, she almost doesn't recognize her mother. This woman owns a glamorous refurbished Mustang and kind of looks like Charlize Theron. Nothing like the woman Darcy grew up with. So, what has her mother been doing the past three years?

This is where the plot twists start. Seriously, one after another, and they're so good. I'm always in awe when an author can pull that off. I was glued to the book for 2 days until I finished up. It's well written, funny and shocking. I'm surprised not many people are talking about it!

Bottom line: This is one of the those books you can get into knowing nothing about it and will actually make it more enjoyable. This is the book that will pull you out of your reading slump. You're welcome.
