I was intrigued by the premise–how we can all be fooled by the advertising hype we hear daily. Then Olsen took the story down a dark path and into a labyrinth of unexpected twists and complicated secondary plots that kept me turning pages. The writing is good, the pacing is fast, the characters relatable, and the story believable–all the elements I like to see in thrillers. In any book, really.

I have recommended this book to book clubs who enjoyed reading it. It takes the third spot of the most memorable books I’ve read this year.
