The Fortune Teller

 

Publication date 1st April 2024

About the book

‘You might think you’ve met the man of your dreams. But if you marry him, it will end in tragedy within five years. If you want everyone you love to stay safe, you should walk away…’

The fortune teller told me my fate. But I ignored her. I married the man of my dreams. We made a family. Our life is beautiful, safe and happy.

I’ve pushed that hazy, sunny afternoon in the park, where we spotted a funfair setting up, and my best friends and I dared each other to go into the fortune teller’s tent…

I’ve tried to forget what she said about how tragedy lay ahead for me. I want to believe that we are in charge of our own fates. Looking at my two perfect, beautiful children, I refuse to believe things could go wrong for us…

But as strange things begin to happen, I begin to wonder… could there be any truth behind what the fortune teller told me that day? And if not, who in my life wants me to be scared for my life? And how do I protect the family from the worst fate imaginable?

A totally gripping psychological thriller that fans of Gone Girl, The Housemaid and K.L. Slater will be utterly hooked by.


My Review

Literally picked this book up in the morning and began to read it and before I knew it I was finishing it later that evening. Its that addicting, honestly I found this so hard to put down. Every page that went past, I was frightened, I was dreading what was coming next. I could never have predicted the outcome. I’m still in shock its crazy. The suspense oh my god! 

The characters are so relatable and you can easily imagine yourself in their position. I just really felt for Simmy the main character, she seems like such a lovely person and you desperately want the best for her. You will definitely feel all the emotions with her. 

Another thing I enjoyed about this book was the way it was based on a fortune teller.  Now the whole fortune teller business frightens and intrigues me. I would never be able to visit one myself, I’d dread if there was anything bad they would say and I wouldn’t be able to enjoy life knowing the upcoming. I do believe its best not knowing but wouldn’t you just love it if you were to hear positive and exciting things that would happen to you.

The way the author has written this book is incredible, they know how to capture your attention and not loose it. I would definitely say this is got to be one of my favourite books ever! Will definitely be reading a whole lot more from this author and I can’t wait for the next book!
