2026 Libby Book Awards Best Thriller

For fans of Bunny and Yellowface, this razor-sharp debut thriller blends biting satire with chilling suspense, as a young woman steps into her deceased twin’s influencer life—only to discover dark secrets hidden behind her social media façade.

Julie Chan has nothing. Her twin sister has everything—except a pulse.

Julie Chan, a supermarket cashier barely scraping by, finds herself thrust into the glamorous yet perilous world of her late twin sister, Chloe VanHuusen, a popular influencer. Separated at a young age, the identical twins were polar opposites and rarely spoke, except for one viral video that Chloe initiated (Finding My Long-Lost Twin And Buying Her A House #EMOTIONAL).

When Julie discovers Chloe’s body, she doesn’t call the police. Instead, she slips into her dead sister’s meticulously curated life: luxury fashion, high-end skincare, and a devoted online following who never noticed they weren’t quite the same.

At first, the transformation is seamless. Julie relishes the perks of influencer fame, but quickly learns that behind Chloe’s flawless feed lay secrets far darker than she imagined. Her sister’s final days were shadowed by paranoia, manipulation, and something far more sinister.

Now, trapped on a private island retreat with Chloe’s inner circle—an elite clique of influencers obsessed with status and secrecy—Julie is forced to keep up the act while being haunted by her sister’s untimely death. As events spiral out of control, Julie uncovers the sinister forces that may have led to her sister’s demise and realizes she might be the next target.

Darkly funny, fiercely paced, and full of sharp commentary on identity, fame, and the cost of visibility, Julie Chan Is Dead is a twisted thrill ride where fitting in could be fatal—and the people behind the posts are the real danger.

Opinie krytyków

"Narrator Yu-Li Alice Shen delivers a wild, bingeable listening experience in this fast-paced debut. Identical twins Julie and Chloe, who lost their parents at age 4, grew up worlds apart. Julie, who was raised by their miserable, greedy aunt, works a dead-end job, while Chloe, who was adopted by a wealthy family, lives a life of luxury and is a popular influencer. One day, Julie receives a strange call from Chloe and goes to her apartment—only to find her dead. Julie quickly assumes Chloe’s identity and lifestyle. Shen masterfully captures the dark humor in Zhang’s sharp critique of influencer culture. While the story’s latter half takes an unexpected turn into cult-like territory, Shen’s dynamic performance keeps listeners entertained."

About 3/4 of the book are fun. Okay, the characters are all obnoxious (well, most of them are influencers - what did you expect?!) and you have to suspend disbelief throughout most of it, but I didn't really mind. It's fast-paced, there's some dark humour and a lot of social commentary. It's highly entertaining and for the first +/- 6 hours I was glued to my Audible app. And then... the whole thing derailed completely and veered towards utter madness. Not the interesting kind of madness either, but the annoying and ridiculous kind. It's almost as if the original author abandoned the book and her evil twin (who else?!) took over. Very disappointing. The narrator was good, though.

Had a good time. Check trigger warnings before reading but they weren’t so bad. It was eerie and creepy but was a fun time listening.

Enjoyed the story
