I loved this book! First book in years that I read in under a day. The story hooked me from the first page, and did not disappoint. I really enjoyed the characters, and found it easy to become absorbed in the story. 5/5

This might just be my favorite thriller of 2022! What a wild ride. This book was full of sweat-inducing suspense from page 1, rendering me helpless from the ability to put it down. If you’re a fan of movies like The Hitcher, then this book is for you. It has all the twisty, shocking, breathtaking and frustrating vibes that a good thriller should. Love every minute!

This one was a quick suspenseful read and I did enjoy it, it just wasn’t one of my favorites. I’m on the side of this was okay but not mind blowing. For being a true crime junkie, you’d think Liv I think was her name would make better decisions. I get what she was trying to do, and it’s commendable for being in that kind of situation, but at the end of the day she could’ve gotten away and gotten help so much faster if she had made better decisions. I’ve never been in that kind of situation but still

Another great fast-paced read by Noelle W Ihli that I couldn’t put down until I’d finished it.

Gah, not sure what I didn't like about this book but it just didn't hit for me. Like I think I wanted it mostly to be a car chase and not so much chasing in the woods and what-not. It seemed promising in the beginning, but then just became more unbelievable as the story progressed. It felt very rushed and very made-for-tv-movie by the end.

Overall, I think I'll rate is 2.5/5 stars, rounded up because I did like the beginning.
