This book was interesting but the ending of this book really made me question the entire novel as a whole. It just didn't sit right - and I don't want to get into any spoilers...
It's definitely a solid read - but I'm not sure how to particularly feel about the novel.

This was so interesting! I enjoyed that it went back and forth between the two main characters. The story flowed nicely and I liked the short chapters, they kept up the suspension! The book picks up a lot during the middle and it’s a very interesting story of deceit, mystery and drama! I was not expecting the ending, that was my favourite part. It didn’t turn out how I thought it would but the build up to it, was perfect! I liked that at the end of the story, everything fell into place and all questions were answered. Loose ends were tied up. I highly recommend this!

All Sara wants to do is go home to her crappy apartment and sleep but instead her boss makes her deal with a sick drunk girl in the bathroom. When Sara meets Sarah, with an 'H', they have a few laughs before heading off in their Ride-shares. Sara wakes up after her ride to find out that she took the other Sarah's car by mistake and walks the long way back to her apartment that is crawling with police. Sara comes to realize that the other Sarah took her ride and was now murdered outside her apartment. She can't help but wonder if she was the intended victim instead.
This is a quick read with a few twists that keep you guessing. The characters weren't my cup of tea as Sara was portrayed as this strong woman but she is shown as being sarcastic, bitchy, and selfish. To me, that is not the definition of a strong women. Sara is also shown to be highly intelligent but at the same time makes bad choices that show her as being naive. So where the characters didn't impress me, the plot was enough to keep me reading and trying to anticipate who had killed Sarah.
Thanks to Netgalley, William Morrow, and the Scene of the Crime Early Reads for the advanced copy of the book. The opinions are my own.

Thank you NetGalley and William Morrow Paperbacks and Harper Collins Publishers for the advanced readers copy of this book.
While I usually enjoy two different view points this felt flat. Sara was an interesting character and I just didn’t connect with her. She made lots of strange decisions that even after explaining her reasoning made no sense to me. The other Sarah (Ellis) was more intriguing but her story line didn’t go into as much detail as I would have liked.
The premise was good but very vague. At the end I had more questions than answers. The ending felt very rushed. It wasn’t really a thriller as much as a mystery.
There were a few parts I enjoyed but overall I didn’t enjoy it. I really hated 80% of the decisions Sara made and they were so rash and confusing more of a teenagers rather than a 28 yo woman.
