*Blog Tour:The Other You by J S Monroe


Today I'm on the blog tour for the rather fabulous The Other You by J S Monroe. I received an e-copy of the book free for taking part in the tour. It was my first read of 2020 and went straight into my folder for top reads of 2020!



Is he who you think he is?
Kate used to be good at recognising people. So good, she worked for the police, identifying criminals in crowds of thousands. But six months ago, a devastating car accident led to a brain injury. Now the woman who never forgot a face can barely recognise herself in the mirror.
At least she has Rob. Kate met him just after her accident, and he nursed her back to health in his high-tech modernist house on the Cornish coast. When she's with him, the nightmares of the accident fade, and she feels safe and loved.
Until, one day, she looks at Rob anew – and knows, with absolute certainty, that he has been replaced by an impostor. Is she right? Have her old recognition skills returned? Or is it all in her damaged mind?
My thoughts?

WOW I just devoured this twisty read. Kate used to work as a civilian super-recogniser with the Police - she never forgot a face. Since her accident she remembers nothing. After meeting Rob (randomly at the hospital), a gorgeous and successful entrepreneur she falls head-over-heels for him and moved to his luxury Cornish home with her small dog to recover. Life is sweet..

If only she could remember...some strange and frightening things happen in Cornwall and she begins to look at Rob in a new light, is he who he really says he is? Does she know him at all? This new turn unsettles her. When she decides to go to London to allay her fears her nightmares become real. I was on the edge-of-my seat (with heart pumping!) when she finds herself alone in Rob's luxury apartment in London's Shoreditch. 

Luckily for her her ex-boyfriend and best friend, Bex are looking out for her... I absolutely loved this fast paced, tense and twisty story which is one of my top reads so far of 2020. So highly recommend.
