It was an ok short story. I’ll probably forget it in a few days, but it entertained me while it lasted.

A very exiting thriller - very fast paced, but easy to fall into the story.

Meh.... I usually love these two authors. This was a free audible production. It was somewhat interesting but very predictable. The plot had a lot of holes.

It’s not a bad book.. just I would get lost a little but then right back in it. But listening to it was great!

I didn’t think a 2 1/2 hour story could be a super good twisty thriller, but Greer and Sarah are so good at the good twists and turns that even in a short story, they did an awesome job. I was pulled in right away and couldn’t figure it out. Can’t wait for their next full novel!

Holy hell what a psycho! It's stories like this that make me glad to be single because
.

I don't really know what I was expecting but that was not at all close. But in a good way. The audiobook is less than 3 hours, so you can listen in one sitting or one afternoon.

Boring and run-of-the-mill. Standard stalker-turned-killer trope written with very little effort.

Wow. This was good.

The Getaway was a pretty good short mystery. A lot happened within 2 hours that I wasn't fully prepared for. The twists and turns just kept getting better and better. Heck, even the cliffhanger ending kept me on the edge of my seat. No idea if there's going to be another novella or not but I wouldn't be mad if there was.

This book definitely made me think twice before going to any yoga retreat. Maybe any retreat.. unless there's wine? The thing that made me proud was watching the girls working together to escape. I also would've like it to be a bit longer so that it wasn't so choppy throughout the book.
