4.25⭐️ this book is like Pretty Little Liars except BOTH girls are Alison DiLaurentis
a little frustrating and a little predictable, but this book had me by the THROAT
and between the audio and my kindle i finished it in under 24 hours (after having been in a reading slump for 2 months)

The plot twist at the end was very reminiscing of the tv show and book series YOU loved the second half of the book but the first half kinda slow and hard to keep track of

No Place Left to Hide had a solid premise—missing girl, small town secrets, and the kind of setup that should have kept me glued to the pages. Instead, it felt more like I was trudging through quicksand. The pacing dragged, the characters didn’t always pop off the page, and the twists were a little too easy to spot coming.
That’s not to say it was a total miss. There were definitely moments of tension, and I liked some of the atmosphere Megan Lally created. But overall, it just didn’t pack the punch I was hoping for. It sat in that frustrating middle ground of “not bad, but not great either.”
Final Verdict: A decent attempt at a twisty thriller, but it left me wanting sharper writing, more suspense, and characters with a bit more bite.

I didn’t like anyone in this book. By the end I just wanted everyone to either get caught or die together especially the “friends”. The killer reveal didn’t feel authentic or believable. Though I do like that the victims are not perfect people still did not find anything likable about them.
