*CRACK* That is the sound of Minka Kent hitting it out of the ballpark with Imaginary Strangers!!! This book was shocking, brilliant and amazing! I did not want to put this instantly addictive book down. I was glued to the pages wanting more of this riveting, twist filled, book!!
WOWZA!
Camille Prescott appears to have it all. She is happily married to a handsome, supportive, and loving husband. She has 2 adorable children. She also has a secret. It’s a whopper of a secret, one that Camille has no intention of ever divulging. One of those secrets relates to her childhood and upbringing. She lives in fear that one day she will be found. Her fear intensifies when her six-year-old daughter, Georgie, has an imaginary friend who knows things about Camille’s childhood. Things that Camille has never shared except in her therapy sessions.
I devoured this book! I loved being able to sit in on Camille’s therapy sessions. I loved knowing some of Camille’s secrets that she had kept in the vault and never shared with her husband. I loved being a silent observer as things began to become uncomfortable for Camille. Speaking of Camille, she is such an interesting character. Very interesting, indeed.
There are a nice number of twists and turns in this book. Holy Moly, I did not see a major twist/reveal coming at all! I was left with my mouth hanging open, thinking “did that just happen?” and “shut the front door!” Seriously, Minka Kent, I salute you. This is how you write a gripping and shocking psychological thriller!!! I’ll also never think of Venus flytraps the same way again.
I loved, loved, loved the suspense, the tension, and the plot of this book. I never knew when the other shoe was going to drop. I loved that I was not able to figure this book out. Minka Kent kept me on my toes, fully invested, and turning the pages of this book. Whew!
I can’t wait to read what comes next for Camille and her family!!!! Bring it on, Kent, bring it on! I’m looking forward to it!
