Riley Sager

4.01 AVERAGE


Extremely engaging with twists and turns. Every time you think you learn something the author throws a curve ball. I really enjoyed the format of the book as well as it kept the pages turning! I think that it was a bit scary for me to read at night because the few times I did I was spooked big time but I am also a major wuss. It was one of the best books I’ve read in a while!

This was disappointing after enjoying Riley Sager's other books so thoroughly. The story potential felt stronger than the execution with the focus and pacing feeling a bit off. I don't need every loose end tied up to feel satisfied but this one left too many things fuzzy and lost some of the impact of stategically leaving a few things unresolved.

3.5

Riley Sager never ceases to amaze me. Their writing style is unique and captivating. Every book is better than the last.

Great mystery with a double twist ending. Just when you thought you were ahead of the author, you weren’t.
