A woman who loves thrillers shared there’s one which really stood out from the others, shocking her so much that she couldn’t stop talking about it and recommending it to other book lovers.
Michaela, who posts on social media as @whatmichaelareads, loves thriller books, and wants to find the best recommendations for her followers – and that’s exactly what she’s done with this book, which comes out soon.
Set to release on Thursday (March 26), Die Trying by Eleanor Barker White sounds utterly addictive, and like it would have you desperately turning the pages until the very last word is written.
“The more and more I read, the harder it is for me to find books that are just doing things a little bit differently,” she admitted, and many book lovers are going to feel the exact same way!
Happy when she picked up Die Trying, Michaela said it was completely different to what she anticipated.
Michaela promised “this book is doing something different,” and went on to explain why.
She said: “Our main character in Die Trying is a guy called Adam, and his life has just fallen apart because his wife has just left him for another man. When he was in college, he used to mess around with his friends, using a glass die.
“Adam and his friends used to use this die to make decisions for them, so they would ask the die questions, and depending on the outcome, that would tell them what they had to do.
“So, desperate to gain back some control from his life, Adam has reverted to using the die. And as you can imagine, it’s not gonna go very well. »
Michaela described it as a “true psychological thriller” saying it will “leave you with anxiety” and you’re “flipping the pages and you’ve got no idea where it’s gonna go”. She also said it’s from multiple people’s point of view, which she said is her “favourite type of book to read”.
The blurb reads: “A chillingly compelling psychological thriller about the chances we take and their deadly consequences…
“When Jemma leaves husband Adam for another man, his world shatters. Desperate to regain control, Adam turns to the glass die he once used to make every decision.
“Meanwhile, Jemma’s lost her sense of self. Every choice she makes is tempting her to risk everything to find her spark again.
“At first, it’s just a game. Adam’s die becomes the centrepiece of a wellness podcast he starts with an old friend. But when interest spreads online, and others are drawn into its dangerous orbit, Adam’s obsession takes a darker turn.
“As his painful past threatens to overturn the present, Adam loses his grip on reality and one final roll could decide everything – life, death, or the illusion of choice itself…
“Die Trying is an addictive, twisting pageturner that asks how far we’ll go when we gamble with fate, and the devastating impact a single decision can unleash. »
