She’s got your job. She wants your life…

 

When Katherine first meets her new intern Lily, she’s immediately captivated. Young, beautiful and confident, Lily reminds Katherine of everything she once was – and it’s not long before she develops a dark fascination with her new colleague.

 

But is Lily as perfect as she seems, or does she have a sinister hidden agenda? As Katherine is drawn into an obsessive power struggle with the intern, a disturbing picture emerges of two women hiding dark secrets – and who are desperate enough to do anything to come out on top…

Breathlessly addictive and deeply unsettling, Precious You is a thriller like no other. Taut, terrifying and with shocking twists at every turn, it will keep you guessing until the very last page.

And finally if you just want an all around fabulous book that will get under your skin then without a doubt this is the book for you....

Precious You is one spectacularly impressive debut novel that I thoroughly enjoyed reading.  I really can't say much more for fear of giving spoilers, but I can stay the book is written from two viewpoints, both really strong female characters who have their determination and cunning in common.   There are many layers to both of them and it was fascinating to see how the secrets they are hiding are revealed slowly. 

Basically I was incredibly impressed by this and think you should if you like the sound of it, give it a go and go in as blank as me to it, so it can surprise you fully! 

Thank you to HQ and Netgalley for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
