#REVIEW - "Those Girls" by Chevy Stevens


Description:
Chevy Stevens is back with her most powerful, emotional thriller yet— a story of survival…and revenge.


Life has never been easy for the three Campbell sisters. Jess, Courtney, and Dani live on a remote ranch in Western Canada where they work hard and try to stay out of the way of their father’s fists. One night, a fight gets out of hand and the sisters are forced to go on the run, only to get caught in an even worse nightmare when their truck breaks down in a small town. Events spiral out of control and a chance encounter with the wrong people leaves them in a horrific and desperate situation. They are left with no choice but to change their names and create new lives.


Eighteen years later, they are still trying to forget what happened that summer when one of the sisters goes missing and they are pulled back into their past.


This time there’s nowhere left to run.

As much of a thriller as it is a deep exploration of the bonds among sisters, THOSE GIRLS is an unforgettable portrait of desperation, loyalty, and evil.

MY TAKE:
5+++ STARS!!!!!
Wow!!! ANYTHING with the name of 'Chevy Stevens' on it - don't hesitate, don't ask questions, don't read the description, you don't even need to read the reviews - just BUY IT AND READ IT! She is "THE MASTER" at writing the perfect psychological thriller, and not only that, she constantly keeps us guessing as to what is going to happen! I guarantee you're going to LOVE this book just as much as ANY other book she has written, and maybe even a little more so than the others! If you don't, then come back at me and let me have it! 
This is, however, if you LOVE psychological thrillers! Chevy Stevens does not hold back! Allow me to warn you, Chevy Stevens does not blink once when it comes to gore, blood, sexual predicaments, and other things that some people may not be comfortable reading about, so let me tell you I have forewarned you.
I really enjoyed where this book took us. Of course the things that happened to these sisters were HORRID, I couldn't imagine living through some of the things they did, but I never expected this story to go where it did! I can't say too much about it because if I give the smallest hint, you'll know, or can guess what will happen, but in this book, Chevy Stevens gives us a little bit of a trip through Women's Fiction in it. I really enjoyed this part of it in this story. I thought it was a neat curve for her with her writing, a place we have not been before with her, and I hope we get to see a little more of into the future! We read about the sisters' everyday lives, the regular things that happen in life as it moves along, their relationships with each other, and other things. 
This part was the most normal part there was, of course! It really was enjoyable to get to see these sisters actually be sisters, for once, and not be running, hiding, or whatever to stay alive, that is, until, we get the regular Chevy Stevens back that we all know and love!
Okay! For you diehard Chevy Stevens fans, go read this one and enjoy every second of it! I sure did!
I want to thank St Martins Press and NetGalley for giving me the absolute AMAZING opportunity to get to read and review this book for you no matter if this review was positive or negative! Thank you SO much!!!
