I am not going to lie to anyone and say the major twist of Do You Follow? by J.C. Bidonde really shocked me, but it was sure entertaining!! Alexa and Beth are the two viewpoints in the book, and I really enjoyed the way it alternates between the two of them. This is an incredibly quick read and I somehow managed to finish the audiobook in just a couple of hours. The pacing is quite fast, and I was immediately pulled in by Bidonde's writing and the story. I was told not to reread the synopsis before starting, and I am rather glad I didn't. It doesn't give anything away per se, but I didn't need all of the detail either. If you enjoy fast-paced thrillers and books about twins then you should pick it up, and that is basically all you need to know about the story.
I had the audiobook on NetGalley but to be honest I completely skipped it because of the quality of their app and went straight to Libro.fm for a copy. I am really glad I did this as it is the perfect book to listen to at a faster speed which is probably part of the reason I finished it so quickly. The narrator is Marnye Young who I haven't listened to before, but I loved her for Do You Follow?. Even though this has a trope I have read before, I really enjoyed the execution and the very end actually did leave me pretty surprised while also making me think there is a small plot hole. Either that or I missed something, but it didn't take away from my enjoyment and this was a very solid debut! I will definitely be reading whatever Bidonde writes next.
Thank you to the publishers for my advanced listening and digital copies of this book. All opinions and thoughts are my own.
