Review | Anonymous by L.P. Dover --> 3 Stars
TITLE: Anonymous
AUTHOR: L.P. Dover
GENRE: Suspense / Thriller
RELEASE DATE: April 23rd, 2018
Every person has a story to tell. Some may be sweet with a happily ever after, but there are others that end in tragedy. Mine has yet to be finished.
My name is Elizabeth Kingston and this is where my story begins. I never thought my life could be so perfect. I have an amazing job owning my own bakery, and a wonderful husband who I love and who loves me back. Never once did I have to worry about anything, at least, not until the texts started coming in. They always begin the same way … numbers that spell my nickname when read upside down.

It’s someone from my past, only they won’t to tell me who they are, but that by talking to them, I’ll figure it out. It’s a game I refuse to play. Unfortunately, I’m left with no choice when things begin to take a dangerous turn.
His name is Anonymous and there’s only one thing he wants … ME.
⭐️ 3 "31773" Stars ⭐️
The premise of Anonymous sounded really interesting when I first decided to read this book. The creepy text messages and stalker aspect had me intrigued and I was excited to dive into this story. Sadly, the novel fell flat for me! There was just something missing to completely grab my attention.
My biggest problem is that I didn’t felt connected to the characters. The investigation was interesting, but it took a few chapters to finally take flight. Every hint added had me having my own suspicions about the person responsible for stalking Ellie and I was right from very early into the story.
Overall, the suspense part of Anonymous is diverting but the other aspects felt poor for me. If you’re looking for a short read with twists and action, this book will provide you all of that though.
