BookRiot's Most Anticipated January Mysteries and Thrillers Goodreads Most Anticipated Mysteries and Thrillers of 2024 Mysterious Bookshop (NYC) February Psychological Suspense Crime Club LibraryReads Pick (Hall of Fame) January 2024 SIBA Read This Next January 2024 "Willingham is known for psychological twists, and the one she plants here is a doozy." - Booklist "A first-year college student accepts an invitation to leave her dormitory and move into a house with three other women. Then absolutely everything goes wrong . . . The payoff is handsome." - Kirkus Reviews "Cunning . . . twisty . . . Willingham's prose remains evocative, and her deep dive into the thorny nature of female friendship rings true . . . a gripping ride." - - Publishers Weekly "A hypnotic thriller . . . Stacy Willingham has already proven she's adept at keeping her readers guessing, and in her third outing she continues her masterfulness." - Charleston.com "Willingham delivers twist after twist, every one unexpected, plausible, and clever. She's created a narrator who is telling far less than she knows but does so in a way that there's never a feeling of being duped or cheated. That feat alone should earn Willingham a place alongside Paula Hawkins and Gillian Flynn in the pantheon of great psychological thriller authors." - Southern Review of Books "A twisty mystery that carefully unspools itself with each chapter, Only If You're Lucky is the kind of book that will grip a reader and refuse to let go. . . Dark, intense, and completely addictive." - Laurie Elizabeth Flynn, author of The Girls Are All So Nice Here "Utterly hypnotic. Only If You're Lucky seduces the reader into a spiderweb of beguiling friendships, sinister secrets, and the quicksilver danger lurking behind even the tightest of bonds. Reader beware this will keep you breathless to the very end." - Lisa Gardner |
