Girls' Trip
Fake town. Fake friends. Fake life. Real danger.
I lied to get a job as a financial planner, and to keep it I have to befriend the two other girls in the office, Alice and Taylor. One's an uptight priss, and the other's a thirsty party girl. When we take a trip to stay at a cabin on a lake, I'll find out I'm not the only one keeping secrets.
But it turns out the three of us aren't the only ones in this trendy tourist town. There's our silver fox host who keeps butting in, Taylor's two-faced hookup, and then I keep thinking I'm seeing someone out in the woods. It might be my imagination, until late at night I hear footsteps right outside our cabin.
It seems like everyone is after something, but they don't know I'll do whatever it takes to get what I want.
Girls Trip is a disturbingly addictive psychological thriller with a killer twist. It is the first book in the Girls Trilogy. This second edition features an expanded ending including a new epilogue as well as the first chapter of the sequel, Girls' Night, which is available now!

About the author
Jason Letts
78 books181 followersSometimes I think writing makes me crazy, but then again I'd probably be even more crazy without it. There are a lot of things I do to balance out though: traveling, distance running, hiking, reading, orange juice, tennis, food fights, walking out of movie theaters telling the people in line that Harry Potter dies, cooking ethnic food, and competitive napping.

3 stars.
Alice, Taylor, and Emily all work together, but does anyone really know eachother? Everyone is hiding a big secret. While this long weekend Girls' Trip is intended to be a way for the 3 girls to become closer and better friends, there is no telling what really is in store for them.
This book was very quick and easy to read, but there were some parts that I found kind of eyeroll worthy. The ending did leave me wanting more (which I was mad because at first, I did not realize there was a sequel, but there was).
I do think the last couple chapters were the best. That was really when I started needing to know what happened next.

This was a good book. I liked the plot. I found the ending boring though
Read
September 22, 2024This book was entertaining, but the ending was slightly hard to believe. I’m writing this review from memory, so I might not remember all of it lol.
Emily, Alice, and Taylor work at the same accounting firm, and they decide to take a weekend girls trip together to Hochatown, Oklahoma (which ironically is where I took my honeymoon lol).
First of all, the girls don’t seem to really like each other, so I find it funny that they decided to take a trip together, but of course there is a scheme going on.
Alice is very reserved and uptight, while Taylor is seemingly a little wild. Emily tries to be somewhere in the middle, while also trying to hide her big secret: that she has absolutely no financing experience and she bull crapped her way in this job.
From the start, their host is a creep, lingering around their cabin, and being shirtless at random times. It doesn’t help that he also lives on the land, in a random room in the corner of their cabin. Me personally, I would’ve peaced out, but I understand that Emily didn’t have the money to pay for anywhere else, and they all just decided to get through the weekend and then they could leave.
I also didn’t find it super realistic that Emily was expected to pay for like the whole weekend. You would not catch me going on a trip like that, even if I wanted people to like me better. You can’t be broke and go on a trip.
Taylor’s random hookup, that turned out to be Emily’s old scam partner in crime, lowkey should’ve indicated to Emily that something suspicious was going on. It was also strange how easily Emily was just able to take over Alice’s identity at the end, just because she looked slightly like her. So you’re telling me that three girls go on a cabin getaway, one of them comes out alive and they just blindly accept that Emily is Alice with no questions or fingerprinting or nothing? Crazy.
Also crazy that Alice was an evil mastermind and Taylor was not that smart and just along for the ride. Just when you think you know people.
I know that this plot is left somewhat open ended because this is the first book in a series, so I will probably read the other books to see if Emily pulls off being Alice.
This book’s isolated cabin setting made it more interesting and thrilling, and I appreciated the author’s writing style, even if some of the plot elements didn’t make sense.

Three girls working at an accounting company head to a cabin in the woods in a small town in Texas for Labor Day weekend. Things are sketchy from the get go when they find that their ABNB host’s cabin is attached to theirs. They are convinced their host is messing with them. They hear strange things at night, meet a weird guy in the bar, things go missing and someone from the past that knows one of the girls pops up. There’s a lot of lies and and weird things that happen.
This book had a couple of plot twists but they didn’t exactly make sense and there’s a lot of unanswered questions. The ending felt really rushed. Come to find out that this is the first book of a trilogy so maybe some of the questions will be answered in the other books? I probably won’t read them. This book wasn’t terrible but it wasn’t great either.

Okay Jason… what did I just read? Girls' Trip had me hooked from the very first “fake town, fake friends” vibe and spiraled into a deliciously twisted rollercoaster that I was absolutely not prepared for.
We’ve got workplace lies, girl drama, suspicious hookups, and mysterious footsteps in the woods?? Sir, this book is one red flag away from a Netflix deal.
I thought I knew where this was going, and then BAM, plot twist. Then another. And then a new epilogue just to finish me off.
Each character is more untrustworthy than the last, and yet I couldn’t stop reading. It’s chaotic. It's suspenseful. It’s got that "you're probably not going to sleep tonight" energy, and I loved every second of it.
Jason Letts, you sneaky genius… I’ll be watching you. (In a non-creepy, non-cabin-in-the-woods kind of way.)
Already bracing myself for Book 2.

This is a first read for me by this author. It was a RIDE. Twists and turns left you wondering what was really going on. It kept my attention, but please know it ends on a sort of cliffhanger, so you're drawn to wonder to book 2. (Good thinking/marketing Jason!)
Emily, Taylor and Alice head out to a newly founded lake town for a bit of girl bonding and maybe some manipulation. When they get there, they realize that things are not always as they seem. Things they were promised are there, but just a little...off.
Through the course of the weekend, the girls come into situations that would have anyone else running home. But they stay- because the manipulation isn't over yet! The "what is going on?" game is strong with this one.
The story is intriguing. The characters are a little difficult to connect with and the story was a little over the top. But will I read book 2? Yes.

I was excited about this one by the title - who doesn't love a Girl's Trip? But in the short time, I found the book had WAY TOO MANY things going on.... an untrustworthy narrator, hints at deceit and lies, one thing after another .... creepy cabin, creepy host, creepy town, weird encounters... and the fact that the girls barely knew each other and went on a weekend trip that one of them paid for?
It didn't ring true. There were too many twists and too many turns and so many were rabbit trails/unfinished thoughts that added nothing to the book.

A story that quickly drags one in and holds that engagement throughout. Secrets and lies paired with fake friends and other creepy characters. Highly suspenseful and full of surprises with a startling conclusion.

This story took off quick with twist & turns. I found this book from a facebook ad & happy that i did. It's apart if a trilogy. I would have finished it faster if it wasn't for adult responsibilities lol like working.

This book had twists and turns I didn’t see coming, even when I thought I figured it out, boom I hadn’t I am so excited that this was the first of two, about to be three books in a series 10/10 recommend
September 27, 2024
Not terrible. Not my style of book, got WAY too Pollyanna at the end. First book was suspenseful and a page turner and it was pretty much a snooze fest by the end. But for the right audience this would be a great book.

Interesting plot twist I didn't see coming ! This is a series

Good story and well written. A little frustrating with all the back and forth, but I still enjoyed it. Will definitely read this author again.

Good book, quick read.

Absolute juvenile nonsense. The author must’ve been as tired of this book as I was and just ended it. These characters and their actions are completely illogical.

Campy thriller

This one was a quick read. I went back and forth on who did it, not sure if I'll read the next book or not. To think the cops wouldn't have figured out the false ID has me questioning the results.

It was ok.

2 stars because I finished this book, but it just felt like a kids book or teen scream.
