Toni’s mind is trapped in a world of silence, her only chance to save herself is to manage the impossible. She must find a way to make herself heard. She must find her daughter.

Tori lost her husband in an accident that took place in Afghanistan. She moved into a home closer to her mum. Tori's 5-year-old daughter was still dealing with her father's death and then she had to adapt to a new home, a new school, making new friends. Tori hasn't handled things as well as she should have. Having to still take sedatives 2 years after her husband's death is hiding from the pain ... not learning to live with it. Three years ago, her daughter disappeared. Tori was late picking her up from school and when she got there, her daughter was gone. No one saw anything, no one heard anything. The story is told in chapters that alternate between what happened 3 years ago and the present time. They finally merge at the end of the book. Take a deep breath ... nothing is what you thought it was. The ending is nothing short of stunning with a surprise twist. Just WOW! If you are a person who enjoys psychological thrillers, you will LOVE this one! If you only read one book this year ... let it be this one! This is definitely one author that I am going to follow religiously! Many thanks to the author / Bookoutre / Netgalley for the opportunity to read BLINK. The opinion expressed here is unbiased and entirely my own.

I really liked this story but very disappointed that every few chapters there are a few pages missing. which makes the next chapter a little hard to understand for the first few sentences then you kind of gather what's gone on. not sure how to fix this though unfortunately.

Very slow and dragged out in the beginning for quite a few chapters. It then picked up and got more interesting, plus the plot twist was unexpected. But from there on it felt detached and the ending just popped out of nowhere. The final reveal felt rushed, as if the author just wanted to get it over and done with. An original plot but in my opinion not well executed and overall not the thrilling read I expected.
