BLOG TOUR ~ Dear Future Me by Deborah O'Connor

 

Hi Everyone,

Today is my stop for the Blog Tour of Dear Future Me by Deborah O'Connor where I've a review of her latest book. I was thrilled to be asked by Tracy Fenton from Compulsive Reading in conjunction with Zaffre Books who organised this tour to take part along with some other fab book bloggers. You can find out who else has taken part in this fabulous Blog Tour at the end of this so without further ado, here it is:

Twenty years ago, a group of students each wrote themselves a letter - Dear Future Me - confiding their deepest dreams and their darkest secrets.

Now the letters, thought long discarded, have begun to drop through letterboxes. For some they will make them re-evaluate the decisions they've made, the person they could have been.

For others, the letters could be deadly . . .

Well, where do I start with this review!? I didn't just like it, I absolutely LOVED IT. It was absolutely brilliant and I CAN'T recommend it enough, it had me gripped from the very first page right through to the end, there were some great twists, turns bombshells and shocks too which I definitely wasn't expecting and couldn't read it fast enough to get to the end to see how it all panned out.

I always wished that when we were in secondary school that one of our teachers would've got us to write a letter to our future selves & then post them 20 years later to us but after reading this book, I'm glad they didn't. 

Dear Future Me is brilliantly dark, gripping and is very well written with such great and complex charactes, an unforgettable novel about secrets, lies, guilt, betrayal, suspicion and secrets that riddle a small town, uncovering the far-reaching consequences of a decades-old tragedy. So, put your phone on silent, grab some snacks and whatever drink you fancy, curl up on the couch & prepare to be sucked in from the first page.

Dear Future Me is published by Zaffre Books and is available on Kindle, Audiobooks and is available from all good bookstores and libraries.
