The Proposal

Thank you to NetGalley for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

I love a good psychological thriller so I was excited to read this one. The Proposal is the story of Pippa, a divorced, unsuccessful romance writer that is desperately searching for her next story. A felon shows up at her door and she invites him in on a whim, hoping to get a story out of him. She gets not only a story, but a whole lot more.

This book is nuts. I truly don't know where to start or how I feel about it, weeks after I've finished it. Pippa is massively unrelatable. She makes terrible and ridiculous choices over and over again (see: inviting a felon you've never met into your home at night, alone.) That being said, I loved the story anyway. It's crazy and ridiculous and I got so angry at Pippa, she's not the brightest. But I also couldn't put it down and had to know how it ended. The writing is captivating.

Would I recommend The Proposal? Yes. If you like a good psychological thriller, this isn't the MOST suspenseful but the ending is worth it. Stick it out for the ending alone. So crazy good.
