Reviews

Friend Request is a strong psychological thriller that uses social media to it's advantage. - Librarian at Caringbah Library

Creepy and gritty! I've recommended it to fans of domestic noir and titles that deal with the intricacies of female friendships & bullying. - Bookseller at Berkelouw Books & BOOK FACE

What a great thriller this was! From beginning to end I was on the edge of my seat, it's very clever in the way it's an allegory of our current obsession with social media. The concept could've very easily become something cheap and tawdry but the finished product is sharp, slick and intelligent. Excellent! 5 stars. - Bookseller Dymocks Sydney
