Like with all of Sager’s books, this was a quick easy fun little read that held my attention throughout. However, this is probably my least favorite Riley Sager book that I’ve read so far. 

First off, I think I hated every single character in this book. And not even in like an interesting way where they were fun to hate, they were just all insufferable and I really did not give a shit about what happened to them. They were unintelligent and unlikable. 

Secondly, I felt like the story had too many red herrings for my liking. I know some other people said that they were able to predict the ending, so many this is just a me problem, but I felt like it came out of nowhere.

That said, I really did not hate this book at all and found it entertaining and I did think that it had a satisfying conclusion.

i would’ve given the a five star rating if it hadn’t been for the painfully slow beginning and the unbelievably perfect ending. i think it was just how mundane the first half of the book was, but when the plot actually picked up, everything happened so fast. the ending was also just really perfect. everything, and i mean everything, gets resolved. i also found it really weird how after quincy gets her memory back, we don’t get anything else about her mourning her friends? you’d think after having to relive watching her friends be slaughtered in front of her, there’d at least be something about her accepting what happened to everyone. i just found it kinda disappointing how quickly quincy moves on from everyone’s deaths, how there’s nothing else about the friend group. i wish we got to see more of the friend group, more about rodney, amy and betz.
