Every Step She Takes

4.5/ 5 stars Kelley Armstrong is one of my absolute favorite authors. I am excited whenever she writes a new book. I loved her suspense/thriller from last summer. So I absolutely could not wait to read her newest book, Every Step She Takes. And it did not disappoint. This book is a suspense/thriller. The thriller part is not apparent right away. But this was such a good book! The book blurb does not give a synopsis telling us exactly what the book is about. But IMO too many book blurbs give away the entire story. So in a way I am glad that the story wasn\’t completely spoiled for me. The narrator is Genevieve, an American woman living in Rome, Italy (1st person POV). She plays the viola. And has spent the last 10 years trying to keep a low profile. I was very curious to know what happened in her past. The story goes back and forth for the first part of the book between the past and the present. The past was New York 2005. Usually I am not a big fan of past/present story lines with alternating chapters. However, in this case the past was very interesting. In 2005 she was an 18 year old girl working as a music tutor/studying at Juilliard. In 2020 she is 33 years old living in Rome. The mystery/thriller part of the book did not start right away. But once it did the book got so exciting. By the halfway point I was so curious to know how this book would end. There were definitely lots of unexpected revelations. And I was anxious to find out who was guilty. The mystery was so strong. The thriller part was so exciting. Overall this was a great book.

what a unique way to tell the story! Once again, Kelley blows you away with an ending you\’d never have guessed. The character relationships are interesting and keeps you wanting more! Who really killed Isabella and why? I promise, it\’s a gripping story!

I really enjoyed this book. It showcases the world of the celebrity and a mystery. I listened on Audible and both the story and narration held my attention. This one is great.

Every Step She Takes is not Armstrong\’s best work. it\’s an ok read if you can get through the first half.

I absolutely loved this book! It grabbed me right from the first page and never let go. I was stressed out as things went from bad to worse for Lucy, and just couldn\’t put the book down because I had to know what happened. I tried to put it aside and sleep, but just wasn\’t able to. So I was up much too late reading. The characters are compelling, the subject matter is timely, and the book is well written. This is another excellent book by Armstrong!
