Only One Survives by Hannah Mary McKinnon
4.25
Only One Survives, a gripping psychological thriller by Hannah Mary McKinnon, unfolds a suspenseful narrative. The story revolves around Vienna, who narrates most of the events from her perspective. It's a dual-timeline saga of a girl with a tumultuous past carving her path in the music industry until a tragic car accident involving the entire band changes everything.
There's a wealth of details I'm eager to share, but I'm mindful of the need to avoid spoilers. This story is easily spoiled, but I've taken great care to respect your reading experience. These are the best kind of thrillers, after all! You can trust that I won't give away any crucial plot points.
The character development in this book is truly captivating. The characters are multi-layered, adding to the tragic, disturbing, yet thrilling nature of the story.
The fast-paced narrative is filled with shocking twists and turns that will keep you on the edge of your seat. This book is a rollercoaster of suspense and thrill, from the tragic car accident to the revelations about the characters' past. What thriller addict (like me) doesn't love that?
Lastly, I'm still thinking about that ending, and it's been days since I finished the book. I won't spoil it, but I will say that it's a fitting conclusion to the story. The characters are developed so well that it's easy to feel empathy for them, and the ending ties up their arcs in a specific way - whether it's satisfying or not - you will just have to decide for yourself. It's a testament to the book's lasting impact, that I'm still reflecting on it.
