How to Hide in Plain Sight by Emma Noyes
3.0
Kind of boring -- I'm not really a fan of "then" and "now" moments being interspersed throughout books, and I don't think the author did it especially interesting or special here. Very honest about OCD and how the character experiences some genuinely horrifying moments, lies to people (family, her therapist) about her thoughts, how her family accepts those lies to avoid digging deeper. Deals with grief, death of a sibling as a child, discusses wealth semi-in-depth. Mainly though, it was just boring to me. The romance was the least interesting part. I think people might like it, who like "even at your worst, at your lowest, most uncommunicative and lying point, knowing everything about you, I, an intelligent, lonely, misunderstood, hot 21-year-old man am deeply in love with you, a modest, 21-year-old, virgin, successful career woman who has family, relationship and mental problems whom I've known from childhood." Helped me pass the night when I couldn't sleep.
