That’s Not My Name was my favorite YA thriller that I read in 2024 and No Place Left To Hide is another 5 star read! 

This book grabbed my attention from the start and proceeded to be twist after surprising twist. I highly recommend reading this if you love YA thrillers with mean girls vibes, revenge, and multiple, completely surprising twists that will want you to keep reading past your bedtime!

2.5

I loved the narrators and the Finnish mythology/folklore elements of this book. However, the rest of this story did not work for me. The death God was a huge red flag, but the author wants you to believe he is the good side of death compared to the death witches. They were all horrible. The rest of the story moved slow and dragged in places. I think it could have been a more powerful story if it were shorter.

Candy Cain Kills by Brian McAuley

Did not finish book. Stopped at 24%.
A little too gory for my taste.
