Hannah is a concerned friend. Her best friend Libby has not reached out to her in weeks. Is Libby in trouble? Does she need Hannah‘s help? I was immediately immersed in Hannah’s pursuit of the truth behind the sudden ghosting by her best friend. Who is telling the truth in this twisted tale of deception and betrayal? “The advantage of always being overlooked, always being underestimated, was that no one looked closely enough to see through to the truth.” Lines are blurred between fact and fiction as secrets are revealed and facades are shattered. The plot is original, unpredictable and I could not stop reading. Thank you NetGalley and Boldwood Books for my copy.

Let Her Go hooked me right away with its mix of suspense, secrets, and the messy dynamics of friendship. I couldn’t wait to see what really happened to Libby and how far Hannah would go to uncover the truth.
Let Her Go followed Hannah, whose world was upended when her best friend Libby suddenly vanished without a trace. Matt, Libby’s husband, claimed she just needed space and urged Hannah to stop digging—but something about his story didn’t sit right. As Hannah searched for the truth about where Libby went and why she left, long-buried secrets about their friendship started to surface and showed how one shocking moment could change everything.
Since this was my first book by Alison Stockham, I wasn’t sure what to expect—I just hoped for a compelling psychological thriller and maybe a new author to add to my go-to list. With Stockham’s clean, quick, and character-driven style, it was hard not to get drawn in. I enjoyed the way she built tension through atmosphere and shifting relationships, keeping the pages turning with twisty reveals and plenty of emotional suspense.

When friendships go sour, anything can happen... Truly a book that brings your friendships into play. Great characters that make the book feel like it's real life happening. I enjoy reading this book from an author I'm new too. Look forward to reading more.
Thanks to the author the publisher and Netgalley for a early release of this book.

Hannah and Libby have been friends for over 10 years. On a spa weekend Libby confesses that she suspects her marriage to Matt is in trouble, they have serious financial worries and she is convinced he's having an affair. The weekend is the last time Hannah sees or hears from Libby for a while, suddenly messages and calls go unanswered, Matt says she needs time but Hannah is worried that something has happened to her.
The book is in several parts, Hannahs story, Libby's story and then the two together. I found it a book of two halves, Hannah's story seemed quite repetitive but as I progressed through the novel things became clearer and more enjoyable. It was cleverly written as I was unsure if Hannah was a reliable narrator, were these events happening or was her imagination running overtime. There was a slight twist at the end which I also didn't see coming

When Libby vanishes, Hannah, her best friend, is shocked. What is wrong? Why has Libby ghosted her? Hannah, Libby, and Libby’s husband Matt had always been best friends. What happened to Libby?
This one seemed to go on and on just wondering what happened to Libby. The characters were never really developed and all were slightly annoying. I did finish the book, but it was not one of my favorites.

This was a fast-paced read, though a little repetitive at times. It centers on Hannah, Matt, and Libby, who have all been friends for 10+ years. Matt and Libby are married and Hannah is Libby's best friend. Everything is going fine when suddenly one day, Libby stops answering Hannah's texts and calls. Hannah can't get a straight answer from Matt, either, and she refuses to believe that Libby would do something like that if she was OK, so she continues to dig deeper to find out what is really going on. The story is told primarily from Hannah's POV in the beginning, and then shifts to Libby's before alternating between the two at the end.
The early chapters from Hannah's POV were really suspenseful and it was hard to tell whether Hannah was a reliable narrator or not. Once the reader hears from Libby, some of the questions get answered but also a lot more questions arise. I felt like the storyline became a bit far-fetched as it continued and I didn't really understand characters' reasons for making some of the decisions they made. That being said, it was still fun to read and there was a level of suspense throughout. I didn't fully love the end- I got what the author was trying to do but think it fit that well with what I had grown to understand about specific characters.
Overall, fun read that maybe went a bit too far in causing me to suspend my disbelief, but was still worth it in the long run. Thanks to Netgalley for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Alison Stockham’s Let Her Go is a taut, emotionally charged mystery that lingers like a half-remembered dream—quietly unsettling, deeply human, and impossible to put down.
At its heart is Hannah, a woman content with the quiet rhythms of life, anchored by her closest friend Libby. Their bond feels elemental—more like chosen family than friendship. But when Libby vanishes without explanation, Hannah is left adrift in a silence that feels anything but benign. Her instincts whisper danger, even as those around her urge calm. What unfolds is a slow-burning unraveling of trust, memory, and the stories we tell ourselves about the people we love.
Stockham’s prose is clean and compelling, with a subtle lyricism that elevates the domestic thriller into something more intimate. The tension builds not through spectacle, but through emotional nuance—Hannah’s growing unease, the brittle edges of grief, and the creeping suspicion that love can be both sanctuary and snare.
Perfect for fans of Lisa Jewell and Liane Moriarty, Let Her Go is a story of female friendship, betrayal, and the quiet courage it takes to confront the truth. It’s a novel that asks: how well do we ever really know the people we trust most—and what happens when the answers begin to fracture?
A haunting, elegant read for autumn nights, best paired with candlelight and the kind of silence that listens.

What would you do if your best friend suddenly stopped answering your messages?
Would you, like Hannah, do everything in your power to find out what’s going on?
The harder Hannah tries, the more desperate she becomes, because nothing seems to work. She truly fears the worst…
In the first part of the book, we mainly hear Hannah’s voice as she explains the situation from her perspective. As a reader, you increasingly get the feeling that something isn’t quite right, and you can’t wait to find out what really happened. Is Hannah right to be worried, or is there something else going on?
In the second part, Libby tells her side of the story, and the truth finally comes to light. Did I see it coming? Yes, to some extent — but I was still shocked by the viciousness of this person.
The ending is absolutely brilliant. You might catch a glimpse of a red flag earlier on, but the confirmation still manages to surprise you.
Looking at the cover, it gives off a cold, chilling vibe — perfectly reflecting the personality of one of the main characters.
I really enjoyed this book: great twists, a fantastic ending, a smooth writing style, and well-developed characters that keep the story engaging.
A strong friendship can be a true blessing, but this book reminds us that maintaining just a little distance can sometimes be wise.
4.5 stars from me.

“Let Her Go” by Alison Stockham is a psychological thriller that explores friendship, trust, and obsession. A new author to me but one I intend to read more of. A fast paced thriller where the tension builds with every chapter and draws you in. The more I read the more I enjoyed it, everyone and everything is not what it appears.
Hannah’s life is quiet and predictable, anchored by her closest friend, Libby, the one person who truly understands her. But when Libby suddenly disappears without a word, Hannah’s comfortable world begins to unravel. Matt, Libby’s husband, insists she just needed space. Yet as Hannah searches for answers, she can’t shake the feeling that something is very wrong. The deeper she digs, the more disturbing the truth becomes, and soon Hannah is forced to question everything she thought she knew about her friend, and herself.
Full of unexpected twists that keep the reader on their toes, Let Her Go masterfully captures Hannah’s growing paranoia, weaving it together with themes of deceit and vulnerability. What begins as a simple story of friendship gradually transforms into a chilling exploration of hidden motives and the fragility of human trust.
I would like to thank both Netgalley and Boldwood Books for supplying a copy of this novel in exchange for an honest review.

I received an ARC via Netgalley in exchange for a honest review.
Let Her Go pulled me in right from the start, and what really stood out to me was the way Alison Stockham weaves together different POVs. Seeing the story unfold through multiple perspectives added significant depth, allowing me to experience the characters’ secrets, fears, and choices in a much more nuanced way.
The twists were another highlight. Just when I thought I knew where things were heading, the story shifted, keeping me hooked until the very end. That constant sense of unpredictability made it impossible to put the book down.
And then there’s the ending. It left me wanting more, in the best way. It wrapped up the story while still leaving me thinking about the characters and their futures long after I turned the last page.
A gripping, twist-filled psychological drama with multiple perspectives that add richness and intensity. Perfect if you love stories that keep you guessing and characters that stay with you after the final chapter.

One moment changes everything, and suddenly Hannah's best friend, Libby, is gone. No warning, no messages, nothing. Just silence.
At first, everyone tells Hannah not to worry. Libby's husband says she just needed some time, that she's fine. But Hannah can't shake the feeling that something's off. And as she starts digging, she realises she might not have known her best friend as well as she thought.
The story starts from Hannah's point of view, and you can really feel her confusion and fear growing with every chapter. Then the perspective shifts to Libby, and everything you thought you knew starts to unravel. I did suspect parts of the twist, but the full truth still hit hard - the cruelty behind it all really surprised me.
The pacing is great, and the ending is honestly fantastic. It ties things up but still leaves you thinking ?' 't these characters long after it's over.
I almost gave it five stars - it's tense, emotional, and full of secrets - but it did get a bit repetitive in places, so it's a solid four from me

3.5 rounded up
A character driven popcorn thriller exploring friendship. Hannah and Libby have been best friends forever. After a recent girls weekend away, Libby confesses to Hannah she’s having marital issues. Soon after that Libby disappears after an armed robbery at her favourite boutique. Hannah is worried and goes in search of her friends. Told over three parts. The first from Hannah’s point of view, the second Libby’s and the final alternates between the two. Part one sets the scene of the women’s friendship and Hannah’s worry about Libby. From part two, the twists start and we begin to wonder which woman is the one who is unreliable and unhinged. I liked the fast pace and the way secrets and twists kept coming. There were a few times I found myself quite frustrated with both women and that the plot seemed dependent on them jumping to giant conclusions. However, I was still quite invested in finding out the motives of one of the women and seeing how things played out. I was kept guessing and found the ending quite satisfying.

Wow! There was definitely a lot of pscho going on in this deliciously dark and twisty thriller.
Two best friends, Hannah and Libby, who have had each other's backs for many years, are suddenly left examining the inner sanctum of said friendship. When Hannah gets ghosted by Libby, Hannah's actual physical need to be needed and adored by Libby sends both of them into a complete downward spiral.
This is a fast-paced read that alternates perspectives. The first part is told through Hannah's perspective, giving the reader insight into her character. Then Libby's perspective is introduced, making you start to second guess what you thought you just learned about Hannah. The acute depiction of the characters will have you wondering who to believe and who you should be rooting for.
This was a really great read, and I highly recommend it.

Title: Let Her Go
Author: Alison Stockham
Rating: ⭐️⭐️
Publication Date: November 17, 2025
Hannah and Libby are close friends, involved in every aspect of each other's lives, until all of a sudden Libby is MIA. The story is first told from Hannah's point of view, and then a third of the way through the book, it switches to Libby's point of view.
I had never heard of this author before, but I decided to take a chance when the cover of the book caught my eye. This was a very quick read, mostly because I found myself skipping over some of the words. I found the writing to be very repetitive. Libby's character was very unlikable, quite often behaving in a selfish, juvenile manner.
I really wish there was something positive I could say about this book. It just missed the mark, and I didn't enjoy it at all.
Thank you to NetGalley for the opportunity to read this ARC in exchange for my honest opinion/review.

thank you to netgalley and boldwood books for this arc in exchange for an honest review! i love a good betrayal/‘do you really know who your friends are?’ story, so this premise really pulled me in, but this book unfortunately missed the mark for me on a few counts. while the writing style was pretty easy to read and i found this book to be really quick to get through (i literally finished it in a day), i thought the writing also felt clunky at quite a few points. i didn’t really like or feel connected to any of the characters, so i didn’t care much how it ended or what happened to them. i can definitely see why other people may really enjoy this book though, so if you think you may enjoy it, i would probably still recommend giving it a try. it just didn’t really hit for me.

Hannah and Libby are close friends. They do everything together, and Hannah has been accepted as one of the family, even by Libby's husband.
After a weekend away, Hannah is ghosted by Libby, and has no idea why. She has to find out if Libby is alright.
I was transfixed to the pages of this book.
The story is so twisty and twisted. And creepy. And Tense!
When you think you know where the story is taking you, you find yourself totally turned around.
Imagine forest paths, following one, and then finding yourself on a completely different path.
It's insane and so are some of the characters!
This is why I love Alison Stockham's books. She is the Master of Deception.

Unfortunately, this book didn't make much sense to me. It went around in circles with dialogues and internal monologues getting repeated every 5 pages.
Though the book begins with Hannah's POV, it didn't bring the much needed boost. Libby's was interesting at first. However as the story progresses you realise that both characters are selfish and stupid and the overarching plot is not great. It felt very generic and even the ending wasn't poetic.
I had hoped that there would be something that would make me find this book interesting. However this is my personal opinion.
I thank NetGalley and Boldwood books for the E-Arc and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

How would you react if your best friend of 10 years ghosted you?
Hannah has no idea what to think when her best friend Libby does exactly this!
What is Hannah supposed to think?
Is Libby sick or hurt? Did her husband Matt become abusive?
Matt tells Hannah to give Libby some space. Leave her alone.
Hannah wants to know what’s happening. The more she pursues the truth, the crazier she looks.
Let Her Go is told from two perspectives, and eventually, the truth comes out.
The story is fast paced and a fun read.
The ending was good, and I laughed out loud!

This book isn’t going to stand out, but I’d still recommend it. The story begins slowly, told from different perspectives. It follows three friends from university who have grown up together, lived together, and are still very close. However, their friendship isn’t perfect. Libby and Matt are married, but their relationship seems rocky. Hannah wants to look out for her friend, but Libby has had enough of the friendship. There are a few good twists in the story, but I didn’t find the character development to be the greatest. I didn’t really care for any of the characters.

Great thriller about two female friends and the man they both love. Lbby, Hannah, and Matt have gone to school together and Matt marries Libby later. but is he secretly in love with Hannah?? Things get ugly--as they usually do when two women love the same man! It's a twisty, fast-paced novel that will have your heart pumping faster than you could imagine!

I received an arc copy of this book from Net Galley in exchange for my honest opinion of it. This book was just okay for me. Some parts were really good with the twists but other parts just dragged on. I am giving it a lower rating because the use of the "f" word was just ridiculous and used way too much and actually was distracting for me.
October 13, 2025
Hmmmm, nice story about friendship that was an easy read however it was lacking depth, felt quite repetitive and the characters for me lacked any characteristics that made me relate/like any of them.
Unfortunately not for me but was glad to have read.
Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher to sending me an ARC in return for an honest review.

The first portion of the book and the ending are great. The middle portion of the book dragged for me, and I was having some difficulty finishing it. What made it harder to read is the main characters are not likeable.
I did really like the storyline and would try another book from the author.
Thank you to NetGalley and Boldwood Books for the advanced copy...all opinions are my own.

This was a unique story told from 2 different perspectives. It wasn't a thriller like I am used to reading but it was a good read. I can't say that I cared for either of the main characters although I did like Hannah a little more. I didn't see the ending coming but appreciated it. Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for this ARC!
October 31, 2025
This is definitely a pretty different story. It does have quite a few twists and turns. It definitely had me thinking one thing then a completely different ending then what I thought was going on.
It’s a good book overall just kinda boring in a few parts that seem to drag out.
Thank you NetGalley for the copy

This book was giving me whiplash! Did you ever read a book or watch a movie and the characters were the kind you love to hate? Well, that's describes these characters, but it's also what makes the book so enjoyable!
Libby, Matt, and Hannah have been friends for 10 years. Libby and Matt are married. Hannah is friends with both of them, and when they moved, she followed them to the same city. Soon problems start arising between the three but mostly between Hannah and Libby.
The story is told from Libby's and Hannah's viewpoints, and I could not figure out who was telling the truth and who was lying. I kept going back and forth between which character I thought was being wronged. I honestly couldn't turn the pages fast enough. I wanted to find out what the heck was going on. I loved the ending! Definitely not what I expected!
