Book Review
Look Closer by David Ellis

🙶Simon and Vicky couldn't seem more normal: a wealthy Chicago couple, he a respected law professor, she an advocate for domestic violence victims. A stable, if unexciting marriage. But one thing's for sure ... absolutely nothing is what it seems. The pair are far from normal, and one of them just may be a killer.

When the body of a beautiful socialite is found hanging in a mansion in a nearby suburb, Simon and Vicky's secrets begin to unravel. A secret whirlwind affair. A twenty-million-dollar trust fund about to come due. A decades-long grudge and obsession with revenge. These are just a few of the lies that make up the complex web...and they will have devastating consequences. And while both Vicky and Simon are liars, just who exactly is conning who?🙷

My Rating: 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟/5

My first David Ellis and will definitely not be last. This is one of those books I truly feel lived up to the hype. 

What I loved about it:

1. The drama - domestic thrillers are the best!

2. It's full of twists and turns I honestly didn't see coming. I was on edge the entire time.

3. It's well-written. There's a good balance of withholding and revealing information throughout the story that it kept me turning the pages.

What I didn't love:

1. Nothing!

It's a consistently gripping story of revenge with an intriguing array of characters that won't bore you. This book is amazing!

  Are you planning an international trip? Exciting! But before you go, it’s important to remember that not all countries use the same electrical outlet plugs. In fact, there are currently 15 types of domestic electrical outlet plugs in use worldwide, each of which has been assigned a letter by the US Department of Commerce International Trade Administration (ITA), starting with A and moving through the alphabet. These letters are completely arbitrary and don’t actually mandate anything. Different regions of the world use different plug shapes and sizes, so you’ll want to choose the correct one for the country you’re visiting.

This is a must-have item for any international traveler. A Universal Travel Adapt
