Description
A Richard & Judy Book Club Pick Summer 2021
People Like Her is described as a "smart, gobble-at-a-sitting thriller about life as a yummy mummy influencer and the dark side of Instagram" by the Guardian. Clare Mackintosh, author of After the End, calls it "brilliantly original". Red magazine hails it as "deliciously dark and devious". Harriet Tyce, author of Blood Orange, "highly recommends" it, while The Times notes its "Gone Girl-esque" qualities. Abigail Dean, author of Girl A, admits, "I couldn't turn the pages fast enough".
People like Emmy Jackson. They always have. Especially online, where she is Instagram sensation Mamabare, famous for telling the unvarnished truth about modern parenthood.
But Emmy isn't as honest as she'd like the fans to believe. She may think she has her followers fooled, but someone out there knows the truth and plans to make her pay...
A deliciously dark, page-turning thriller full of unguessable twists and turns.
