Having read "The Fear" and "Sleep" by the same author and absolutely loved them both, I jumped at the chance to read her latest outing and I certainly wasn't disappointed.
Once again, we are treated to an original and engaging story with excellent and believable characters in situations that are only too plausible and all written at a good pace and easy to follow.
The three main characters of Ursula, Gareth and Alice all have interesting and separate stories of their own to tell and you are left guessing as to how they can relate to each other until the dots are gradually connected as the story moves towards its thrilling conclusion.
A thoroughly enjoyable read and I most certainly will be reading more from this excellent author.
Many thanks to Avon Books and NetGalley for my copy in return for an honest review.

Another strong, well crafted thriller
Having really enjoyed C L Taylor's other books such as Sleep and The Fear I was excited to receive the ARC for Strangers. I really enjoy that all of Taylor's books that I have read all feel different - she doesn't seem to get stuck in her comfort zone and keep to the same theme or writing style and Strangers is no exception. Told from the perspective of three strangers, we meet Gareth - the aging security guard with a mother suffering from dementia, Ursula - the kleptomaniac delivery driver who has been kicked out of her flat and Alice who seems to have acquired a stalker after a disastrous blind date. Each chapter focus' on a different character but these are not necessarily rotated in a particular order, just whichever story needs the most attention which works well. Each chapter also seemed to have an underlying sinister and unsettling air which compelled me to keep reading to find out how they were all connected.
I really enjoyed reading about each of the characters, they are well-developed and I empathised with each of them. Although they all end up winding through to a conclusion together at the end, their storylines are still very standalone. I was actually a touch disappointed with how they linked together, not giving away any spoilers of course, but the blurb had led me to believe they were perhaps more linked than they actually were in the end. I really enjoyed the last chapter though which turned everything on his head.
Overall, this is another strong, well-crafted thriller from C L Taylor and I look forward to reading more from her in future. Thank you to NetGalley & Avon Books UK for the chance to read the ARC in exchange for an honest review.
