Okay, so I’ve been in a reading slump since June started, and guess what finally pulled me out? Megan Lally’s No Place Left to Hide. And listen, I loved her first book That’s Not My Name—so picking this up was a no-brainer.
BUT OH MY GOD.
This book is fast-paced, engaging, and completely unputdownable. It absolutely cured my slump… and replaced it with RAGE 😤😂 Because the characters? They are all hideous. And I mean hideous. Backstabbing. Lying. Manipulative. Every last one of them! Even the so-called “best friend”—I’m side-eyeing her HARD. 👀
There are zero good people in this story. Z-E-R-O. This book taught me one very important lesson:
💀 Trust. No. One. 💀
Not your friends, not your group, not even your closest ally. Everyone’s got an agenda and it’s every man for themselves.
And the ending? Let’s just say the characters end up doing exactly what they judged the main character for. Hypocrisy at its finest. So yes, I’m frustrated, but also impressed at how deeply this book made me feel.
A gripping, emotional rollercoaster that reminded me why I love messy, morally grey thrillers—but also why I have trust issues now. 🙃
Rating: 3.5 🌟
