Until the day she’s no longer there.
But one day she disappears from the online world – her entire social media presence deleted overnight, with no explanation. Has she simply decided that baring her life to all online is no longer a good idea, or has something more sinister happened to her?
But do you really know who Violet is?
Told from the perspectives of her most avid fans, obsessed with finding out the truth, their search quickly reveals a web of lies, betrayal, and shocking consequences…
My review
Unfollow me grabbed my attention from page one. The story displays a modern day account of part jealousy of one follower who wants the perfect life that Violet blue tells her followers on YouTube everything. Where a regular has been enjoying and become addicted to everything Violet uploads and has done so for the past three years, until one evening, Violet’s YouTube channel doesn’t exist anymore. What does that mean? A GoMamas social media chat site are all missing Violet Blue and getting concerned the mummy vlogger shut down her all her social media accounts. What’s to look forward to is that pretty much anything can happen, why someone once had so many fans and shut down all social media without acknowledging to her fans why. The story just gets better and better.
You won’t be able to stop reading this book after reading the first page!
From page 1
I know everything about you Violet.
I know your mother’s name is Joy. I know your sister is a paediatric nurse, that she has twin boys. I know you sold your first flat a tiny, one bed in Blackheath with bubbling wallpaper and a illegal roof terrace for £300k. Double the price you paid for it. I know your father gave you the deposit when you moved to London at twenty-one. I know the house you live in now you and Henry almost £3million, and that you also own the villa in Marbella that you pretend belongs to your parents. I know you lie about your age your thirty-eight next birthday, not thirty-six. I know that 2017 was your most profitable year yet; that you’ve set up a trust fund for the children, somewhere to put all the money that keeps flowing your way.
I know you have hair extensions; I know the name of your hairdresser, Pablo, and that his partner is called Ian. I know where they live. I know you’re loyal to him now, that you consider him family, that you always New Year with him and Ian. Drinking champagne out of saucers, wearing an outfit that cost more than I earn in a month. I know that you got into journalism by luck. I know your ex, Angus, now married to Isabella and living in Surrey, got you a job as editorial assistant on his golfing magazine, and that charmed your way across one of the world’s biggest media firms until you were a feature writer for a woman’s magazine.
I would like to thank Quercus Books for sending me this page turning paperback to read and review and for inviting me to be part of the book tour
