Although I am not a fan of mystery and suspense filled novels the review was well written and makes me curious about Karen and the people who tries to kill her. Congrats on winning BOTD.

I love suspense thrillers. They put me on the edge. I like the adrenaline rush I feel when reading suspense thrillers. I can imagine this book making a great movie.

Karen doesn't know who's trying to kill her. That makes trusting anyone, including her newly wedded husband, difficult. This thrilling book seems like a fun read.

It sounds like Karen has lived an interesting life if people want to kill her for the things she’s done! This looks like an extremely interesting book and I would love to give it a try!

To think that one's life is in danger is one thing. To think that it could be anyone so close to someone is a whole different ball game. The worst enemy is the one we don't know but who is actively there. What a book! Amazing review. Congratulations on BOTD.

Today's book of the day is one of mystery, suspense, and crime. Karen fears she could trust nobody and feel it's not a good idea to be used as bait to lure the killer. The review leaves many questions on my head that I can't wait to unravel. Congrats on #BOTD.

'Official Review: Somebody Wants to Kill Me' by Richard Rees is an in-depth and complete description of the action thriller story of the book for readers. I like the way the reviewer presents the story about someone trying to kill heiress Karen Ryan for curious readers. The point that the book expertly channels all the elements in the story that makes for a quality mystery novel is worth mentioning in the review. Also, the point that most of the characters in the story felt like real people, as mentioned in the review, is remarkable for readers. It was great to learn that the reviewer had fun playing detective with the information that was gradually given in the story!

This well-written mystery sounds like it is a good old-fashioned whodunit book, where clues are slowly revealed to figure out the villain. It's been added to my reading list. Great review!

The title of this book caught my attention. The mystery and well-developed characters are what appeal to me the most. The husband, abusive controlling father, and an ex-boyfriend who harbors ill feelings for losing Karen all thrown together is a volatile environment too. Great review!

I cannot imagine being in such position where everyone, including those you hold dearest, might have a reason to kill you. This sounds like an intriguing mystery novel, can not wait to find out who wants Karen dead. Thanks for the great review.

From a sampling, this seems like an interesting thriller story about a woman who finds herself fleeing in a car chase from a black jeep. When she is rescued from a pond that she and the jeep crashed into, she discovers that her pursuer also escaped. What reason does someone want to kill her? It is worth a second look to find out what happened. Well done.

This novel sounds like one full of great mystery. It’s always wild to think about how someone could want to kill you potentially for things irrelevant to your own actions. I’d love to check out this book sometime, thanks for the review

The author has a way of including very detailed descriptions to paint a clear picture for the reader. This does add to the story, however, the sentences can become overly complex as a result.

This will be a great read. Who could be the culprit? She couldn't trust nobody, everyone is suspicious, even herself. From the review, this story has suspenseful storyline and complex plot twist. The unpredictable ending made it sounds promising. Readers who like to play detective would love this thriller-mystery novel. Thank you for a nice and detailed review.

The reviewer seems like they really enjoyed it and it made me want to read it too. I want to see what made the reviewer think that Karen, the main character, would fake her assassination attempt. It was a really good thinking adding that this book is for more mature readers and that it includes profanity and sexual scenes.
