Why read it?

2 authors picked Anything You Do Say as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I love how clever this book is! It seems like a simple premise, but the Sliding Doors-style structure, allowing us to follow Joanna into two different versions of the future, prompted me to think of all the similar moments of fear I’ve experienced and how they, too, could have ended in an ‘impossible decision.’

I was thrilled, angered, and gripped by both storylines individually, but it’s the way they knotted unexpectedly together that made me ask: What would I have done in this situation?

From Natasha's list on complicated female protagonists.

This is another one that revolves around guilt. A young woman thinks she is being followed as she walks home one night. Her fight or flight instincts kick in and she turns and shoves the man to his death, only to realize he was an innocent jogger. Now she has to live what she has done and she is faced with the ultimate dilemma. Does she own up to her crime and make amends, or does she stay quiet and suffer a lifetime of guilt?

From Lorna's list on reads to keep you awake all night.
