I’ve never read a book that was truly unputdownable, but this was exactly that. Such a great read! The characters in this book were so well done and the way he writes is griping. Highly recommend!

4.0

An absolute page-turner that, despite its flaws, never fails to keep up the tension. Felt like exactly what I needed, super fast-paced to the point I finished it in one sitting.

I’ve seen the movie before, and even though I knew most of the twists, the text was still very worthwhile. Lots of background and perspective shifts that a movie simply can’t portray, and the movie also changes the main character into an addict, which impacts the plot thoroughly.

A solid thriller that I’m not surprised at being very popular. I found this one more compelling than his latest release, The Last Word.

Thrilling and intense, a touch predictable at points but over all left me satisfied. Would probably give a 3.8 if I could
