My New Favorite Book.
I loved this book from start to finish. It was a mix of the TV series "Blindspot" and "Gone Girl". I highly recommend this book.
I read Megan's book, "Escape Room." That book was a 5-star rating for me as well.
I received this galley from NetGalley.

Megan Goldin is one of the best female thriller writers in the business. Once again she has written an absolute edge of your seat thriller with Stay Awake. This book is super unique and is unlike any other book I have read. This book pulls you in and does not let go. The uncertainly of what comes next keeps you guessing and it makes you want to keep reading deep into the night to reach the final conclusion. Her previous two books were excellent and this one keeps pace, delivering a thrill ride that you will not forget. Megan Goldin is cementing herself among the best in business. Thank you NetGalley for the advance copy of the book for my honest review.

The lack of closure with the ending, and no clear motive for the stalking, harassment, and murders left a lot to be desired.
4 Stars
I really enjoyed this book, it was hard to put this one down! I did not guess the ending and was pleasantly surprised by the twists. Will be looking out for other books by this author for sure!

Fast paced and the story jumps a lot within the timeline, so it becomes a task for you to piece together each snippet of the puzzle as it shows up and that becomes straining as it also alters through different povs.
The fact that the book didn't really state the motive for the double murder directly and the fact that there was not a definitive end to it all, covering the consequences didn't do it for me. The book despite an excellent plot and being very well written felt incomplete.
