Do Unto Others

Book Review: Do Unto Others by Mark Jenkins

Rating: 3 Stars

I just finished reading Do Unto Others, and it was a bit of a mixed bag for me. I ended up giving it three stars, and here's why.

The story revolves around four college friends—Alicia, Brooke, Cathy, and Dana—who made a pact to always support each other. Things take a dark turn when one of them ends up dead on her wedding day, and the three remaining friends realize they share a heavy burden of guilt. They decide to bury the memory of that fateful night and try to move on, but, as they soon discover, the past has a habit of resurfacing in the most unexpected ways.

Enter Bradley, a seemingly charming guy who turns out to be the catalyst for their undoing. He knows their secret and isn't afraid to use it against them. The suspense builds as he manipulates their lives, leading to some gripping moments that kept me turning pages. The twist at the end definitely caught me off guard—so much so that I gave the book a bonus star just for that unexpected turn of events!

However, while the plot had its entertaining moments, I couldn't shake the feeling that there were some pretty significant plot holes. It felt like the storyline could have benefited from a bit more depth and coherence. I mean, not every book can be a five-star read, right?

Overall, while Do Unto Others had an intriguing premise and some thrilling moments, it left me wanting more in terms of character development and plot consistency. But if you're looking for a light read with some twists and turns, it might still be worth your time!
