This book was just not it for me. I'm not sure if I just had too high expectations because it had been hyped or if it's being I listened to it on audio or because it was based on true events loosely it was less twisty than I hoped. 

This just drug for me and I never really connected or cared for the characters. There were too many characters too and it made all the POVs almost impossible to keep up with. 

I guessed every person who did it early and it was really a let down there were no real twists. I felt I spent 10 hours on something that could have been wrapped up in a chapter and the journey wasn't exciting.

I also don't get the name, Quarry Girls. The tunnels were the biggest part of this book. Why not The Tunnel Girls? The Quarry really didn't matter. 

Overall this was just blah!
