Quite predictable storyline...

'All the wrong places' follows four different women who explore online dating and meet a seemingly perfect man. They don't realise that he actually has dark intentions for them.

I really liked the author's writing style, and the fact that there were multiple perspectives. It was interesting to hear all their different voices and their thoughts on the events.

I loved the main character, Paige, and her mother, Joan, because I felt like they gave a realistic depiction of a mother and daughter's relationship (in the circumstances), and I thought Paige was a really inspiring character.

However, it did feel like there was too big of a buildup to the ending, and I wasn't really surprised by the events because everything that happened was quite heavily hinted at through out the book. It honestly felt like everything was inevitable.

A lot of the male characters in this book were simply awful, apart from a select few, and they also didn't have to account for their actions- but I suppose that's what makes the book somewhat realistic.

Overall, I really enjoyed the book and the writing style had me engaged and rushing through the story. Would definitely be interested to check out more of Joy Fielding's works in the future.

Rating: 3.5/5
