A review by alexatthelake
The Only One Left by Riley Sager

3.0

Does Sager have a word count that he feels the need to hit in his books? I consider myself a fairly quick reader, not a speed reader by any means, but I can definitely get through books quickly, I feel like it took forever to read this book.. There’s just so many words. Useless words.

I'll admit that this book is one of Sager's better ones. His last few have been absolute... not good books, to be a little kinder because I know people enjoy them. I was super hesitant to read this and even more surprised when I ended up kind of enjoying it. It's definitely not going to make any favourites list or be a book I'm going to highly recommend anyone read, but this one was in fact not terrible.
