My Rating: 🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠




My Review:
Call Me Evie is the debut novel by J.P. Pomare and I was totally blown away by this one. The story starts with 17-year-old Kate Bennet being in a remote cabin with a man named Jim. Kate has no memory of how she ended up in this cabin in New Zealand. She is going on what this man Jim is telling her. He claims she did something awful in Melbourne, Australia and they had to run away for her protection. But little by little parts of Kate’s memory comes back and it isn’t always matching with what Jim is telling her. So Kate isn’t sure if Jim is really her protector or her captor.



The story alternates between past and present. The author masterfully and slowly reveals pieces of the puzzle throughout the story keeping the reader fixated. A lot of books claim to be unable to be put down and truthfully for me anyways that is rarely the case. Call Me Evie is a different story…I couldn’t wait to see what was happening and Pomare had me hooked right from the get-go.




The characters were compelling and realistic. The dialogue was perfect. The intriguing plot was entertaining and steadily paced. There were plenty of twists and turns throughout ending with an edge-of-your-seat conclusion. Perfect for fans of Gillian Flynn and those who love well-written psychological suspense novels. 5 stars, highly recommended.
