He Said/She Said the mustread bestselling suspense novel of the year edition by Erin Kelly Literature Fiction eBooks

The story jumps between the POV of both Kit and Laura, over a 15 year time span, after they stumble upon a possible rape in progress, during a solar eclipse festival in 1999.

It is in essence a story about how the same incident can affect people in a very different way, and how a " little white lie" can evolve and eat away at you and those affected by it, like the moon eats away at the sun during an eclipse. The difficult topic of rape and the plight of how the victim is questioned, doubted and 'put on trial' is also a theme of the book.

The premise of the book as well as all the rave reviews had me eager to get started on this. Unfortunately, my eagerness didn't last very long as I found I had to keep motivating myself on several occasions to continue reading throughout the first half of the story. It seemed to drag on unnecessarily.

I also found myself getting confused , and almost giving up, with the many references to the fact that the couple are in hiding ( for some unknown reason), but with the revelations only happening towards the end of the book, the references had me frustrated instead of intrigued, as I didn't know what they were referring to a lot of the time. It is one thing to keep the reader guessing, but at least give them some crumbs to keep them going. Especially if the story is a slow burner, which this one most certainly is. In all honesty, I prefer a story that hooks me from the start, or at least 25% in, this one failed to do that for me.

Once I reached the 50% mark however, the story finally gained momentum and I could appreciate how the author had built up the story, layer upon layer, to reveal twists and then double twists to add an extra layer to the original twist, so that I was left doubting almost all the characters at some point, which I loved.

However some of the twists did not correlate with what the author had painstakingly portrayed the character to be, making it unlikely and unbelievable. But I suppose that's why they're called surprise twists. Was it a good surprise though?

One can tell how much effort the author put into building the story ( although slowly), to weave a Web of lies and the lengths one would go to to protect themselves from those lies being revealed. That was the makings of a good story. However, the unnecessary fillers,the fact that I was bored until half way through, and some twists being unbelievable earns this book a 3 * from me.

He Said/She Said the mustread bestselling suspense novel of the year edition by Erin Kelly Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews

I loved this book. I stayed up late a few nights! Great story. Good summer read, nice twist at the end.
I was left feeling disappointed at the end of this book. I thought at times it was a little difficult to follow, not enough character development of Jamie, and I did not like the ending. I would not recommend.
Some readers did complain that it jumped back and forth but I found it easy to follow. At times it seemed a little slow and I must say that it didn't keep me up at night, read a few chapters and could put it down. I was dithering between 3 or 4 stars but frankly the writing is excellent. It is so well written for this type of mystery/thriller, far superior to anything that I have read over the past weeks. It's a good story, there is a twist and I have recommended it as thee are so many badly written books in this genre and it's rare to find a book these days that actually ends without endeavouring to sell you the next in the series.
This story had more curves and twists than a Sports Illustrated model (groan). While 3/4 of the way through this novel, I actually asked myself if reading can give you a heart attack? Because...I was close. Stories like this put a capital "T" in the word thriller. I pride myself on figuring out endings but this one beat me bad. I don't want to say more because I want to ensure maximum enjoyment for my sweet book peeps. Loved it. 5 stars #wow #secrets #lies #thriller #book #books #read #reader #erinkelly #smart

This is one of the most creative books I've read in a long time. I know some people don't like flashbacks as a writing technique, but it was really effective in this book. It was a good way to develop each character and the story eventually comes around so that each scenario is told from each of the main character's points of view. I will definitely look for more from Erin Kelly and can't wait for the movie based on this book!
HE SAID/SHE SAID left me breathless. It is a treat for readers who appreciate a top-notch, well-crafted psychological thriller and reminds me again that a good story told in writing can be much more frightening than a film.

The story bounces back and forth between 1999-2000, when Kit and Laura attend a solar eclipse festival in Cornwall, and 2015. This format, in lesser hands, can be jumpy and disjointed, but Erin Kelly makes the past, present and back again transitions seamless.

While at the festival in 1999, Laura happens upon what she thinks is a sexual assault. In her mind, there is no question that she interrupts a rape. The man, later identified as Jamie, runs off after telling Laura that she is mistaken; the young woman, Beth, has been rendered almost mute. Kit witnesses only the aftermath.

Fast forwarding to 2015, Kit and Laura, now married, are living under assumed names and have done their best to fly under the radar. Kit, once on the verge of becoming a PhD astrophysicist, has a low level university position, and Laura, now pregnant, lives in a state of debilitating anxiety and panic.

The tale of the intervening years is hair-raising. Beginning with the “he said/she said” trial, Erin Kelly builds a terrifying story incident by incident. Beth insinuates herself into Kit’s and Laura’s lives, creating discord. Laura, the nurturer, refuses to leave Beth adrift; Kit wants nothing more than to put the incident behind him. Is any of these deeply flawed characters telling the whole truth?

The ending is a magnificent tour de force! So much for my ability at flushing out conclusions; I never could have predicted this one.

This was my first Erin Kelly read, and it won’t be my last. She is not only a master of twists and turns, but also character development. Using solar eclipses and their fanatical chasers as a backdrop creates an eerie sensation from the outset. For those who love this genre, you will not be disappointed.
