I received a copy of The Hypnotist’s Love Story by Liane Moriarty in exchange for an honest review.
Summary:
Ellen O’Farrell is an expert when it comes to human frailties. She’s a hypnotherapist who helps her clients deal with everything from addictions to life-long phobias. So when she falls in love with a man who is being stalked by his ex-girlfriend she’s more intrigued than frightened. What makes a supposedly smart, professional woman behave this way? She’d love to meet her!
What she doesn’t know is that she already has. Saskia has been masquerading as a client, and their lives are set to collide in ways Ellen could never have predicted.
This wonderfully perceptive new novel from Liane Moriarty is about the lines we’ll cross for love. It’s about the murky areas between right and wrong, and the complexities of modern relationships.
Review:
I was really intrigued by the synopsis of this book, and I’m happy to report that I wasn’t disappointed by the story. I liked learning about hypnosis, as I know a few people who have done it for reasons as to stop over-eating and quit smoking, that sort of thing. It was really the dynamics between the characters that made this book hard to put down. Saskia was truly fascinating to read about, as you are never quite sure what she will scheme up next. I think this is a unique storyline, and one that people could really enjoy!
