I had a single qualm: the ending was very abrupt, and I prefer them to have more details about the wider plot and how the dust settled for everyone. Otherwise, a great read.
Side note for other readers: this is not a Saw-style story.

An extremely gripping read, nice start to November! As a self-professed thrill-seeker reader I can't stand books that don't have good pacing, slow burn is really not my style. This book keeps you on edge at all times.
Nevertheless, the ending felt a bit rushed. I wished there was more to the escape room tho I would love to have more puzzles to solve. I understand that the escape room is not the main focus of this book, but... don't name it like that if its not ;-; At times the plot seems too convenient, I would prefer everything to happen more organically.
I love how I started out rating this book 4.25 our of 5 stars, but when I wrote my review I gradually decrease it to just 3.5 stars. I still made it to the end and *relatively* not that disappointed, but don't think this is a future reread.
9 March 24: second re-read, the resemblance between the first quarter of this book and my new corporate job is very uncanny…
