I feel like I wasted 5 hours and 22 minutes listening to this. The suspense was mediocre at best and the MC was getting on my damn nerves. I'm going to watch the movie now, hopefully that's better.

Masterpiece - this book was ambiguous which made for a thought provoking read
I highly recommend checking out this book as it introduces such a unique reading experience

What????? I’m sooo confused
EDIT:
Whoaaaa...rereading this again after knowing the ending definitely gives a different experience. I 100% suggest rereading it if the story still confused you. Or listening to the audiobook, which made it easier to understand the end.
Although I still don’t understand the significance of “the girlfriend”’s story about the driving instructor, or the significance of the three girls at the Dairy Queen. And the blond girl? What’re they representing? What do they meant?
Plus, Sometimes the author went on too long about something that I didn’t care about so it frustrated me. Especially when it’s a suspenseful scene. Sometimes it also came off a bit preachy.

The more I think about this book, the more heartbreaking it gets.
"You never think you'll be in a situation like this. Being
watched, stalked, held captive, alone. You hear about these
things. You read about them from time to time. You feel sick about the possibility that someone would be capable of inflicting this kind of terror on another human. What's wrong with people? Why do people do these things? Why do people end up in in these these situations? The possibility of evil shocks you. But you aren't the target, so it's okay. You forget about it. You move on. It's not happening to you. It happened to someone else."

I am a little confused on how I feel about this book. I enjoyed the book until the end. it was confusing and I'm pretty sure I know what it was getting at but I can't be 100% sure. it felt a little like too much of a switch up for me at the end.

I wish there was more than 5 stars because it would be easier to give this a 6/10 than 3/5.
It was good. I didn’t feel the need to sit there and finish it in one sitting like people has said in reviews.
Was unsettling at times. I made a mistake of googling something and seeing there was mental health issues involved, so the entire time I was expecting something and I was right. For the most part.
Anyways a good enough read!!

probably a 2.5, not that scary and the ending was lame but it's short and snappy enough that I don't feel like I completely wasted my time
