I listened to Just Fall, by Nina Sadowsky. Talk about your honeymoon from hell! Ellie and Rob have a lovely wedding day, but then it's just one darn thing after another.
While the book is well crafted and the twists are plausible (the surprises didn't need to be explained with information dumps), I didn't enjoy this thriller as much as I expected to, largely because there was only one character I liked, and it wasn't Ellie or Rob. Blurbs compared this to Gone Girl (of course) and to the works of Patricia Highsmith; it was the latter that especially intrigued me. I might have liked this book better if I weren't reading books in this genre so voraciously. It also contained a bit too much sex and violence for my liking.
This was a first novel; even though I wasn't blown away, I would most likely try another book by this author.
