Ask for Andrea

I liked the book. It was different to read a story from the murdered victims' perspective.

This was my first book by Noelle W. Ihli, and she did not disappoint. I could not put this book down! The different POV’s, the way the characters stories connected, and the satisfying ending were both fascinating and brilliant. I was so immersed in this story that I couldn’t stop thinking about it. 10/10 recommend!

This was an interesting thriller with a paranormal overtone. I loved each of the ghosts and their stories. How are these ghosts going to resolve their own murders by the same man? Their search for solutions were fraught with tension but also with despair because they didn't have a big impact on the living world. I especially loved the author's take on what happens to us after we die. It seemed comforting to know how these women would go on after they left the living plane. Overall really good book and I definitely recommend it!

Overall a pretty good book and story... but man was it hard to get into.. and hard to finish. It's less than 300 pages and it took me months to finish it, I just wasn't excited to pick it back up.

This story went a lot different than I was expecting but it was a really good book. It's about 3 women who are murdered by a man they met through a dating website, local coffee shops, bars, etc and their afterlife. I expected it to be about them haunting him, and while that is true, there is much, much more to the story. It absolutely falls into the paranormal category, but it is not spooky in any way. It was definitely worth the read in my opinion.

If you've read this, I suggest checking out The River. It's the post-script to Ask for Andrea.

Now this was an interesting premise for a crime novel! We follow three women post-murder as they actively pursue the man who murdered them. The goal is to communicate with the living in order to get him caught. While I enjoyed the idea for this book, it lacked plot development. The plot was more one-note than I would've liked. The character development was better but it still fell short. Overall, this is a paranormal crime read which is cool, but I wanted more.

4 Stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️

Holy what a heart racing ending.
It has some slow moments but then some really fast paced moments.
I loved it. Ghosts, a Serial Killer, and online dating gone wrong.

I'm glad I started this one blind because if I had read the blurb I probably wouldn't have picked it up, I'm not the biggest fan of thrillers where we already know who the killer is or of ghost stories so at face value this one really wouldn't have been for me, but I found myself really enjoying my time with it. Partly because the ghosts are really compelling and nicely developed as characters and the thriller aspect is almost secondary to their development. I guess what I'm trying to say here is if you're not much of a thriller or ghost story type you might still want to give this one a go.

This was an interesting and fresh spin on a supernatural thriller!

Told in 3 points of view of three women who have already been murdered. Meghan, Brecia and Skye all fell for James. He's as charismatic as he is handsome...but something very dangerous lurks beneath all of that...something they didn't see until it was too late..... but just because stay dead doesn't mean that you have to stay quiet.

I thought the authors take on the ghostly women and their afterlife was fantastic. The pacing was mostly slow throughout the book. I do not mean that it was boring. Not at all. I actually didn't want to put the book because I wanted to know what each woman would do or figure out next. Also there were few parts that got me a bit teary eyed, not from fear as I didn't find the book scary at all, but from the emotions pouring forth from all three. I'll definitely keep an eye on this author.
