Eva Vanrell (evavanrell) | 300 comments I can't say enough good things about this book. I don't normally enjoy first-person narrative and rarely read mystery thrillers, but I absolutely LOVED this book. I read it during my summer vacation - opened the book when I had a half-hour to spare and ended up glued to my iPad until I finished it. "Run" is a fast-paced, heart-pounding, visceral journey that takes you from distant observer to unwilling prey in a harrowing 126 pages. I highly recommend the experience!

Here's a link to my review, if you're interested!

Eva Vanrell (evavanrell) | 300 comments Hi Jenn! *hugs* It was a great read. Quick and really engrossing. I just read the beta for the sequel and it was really good too!

Lily Vagabond (lilyauthor) How's the pacing? That's always my biggest concern. Too many times I've been promised this great thriller, only to find it's not paced as a thriller.

Jenn **hugs**! Sounds like a fun read, I'm going to look it up:)

Eva Vanrell (evavanrell) | 300 comments Lily - Honestly, I don't read enough thrillers to really speak on whether it's properly paced as a thriller. All I can say is that for me the pace was great. It's a short read and it moved very quickly. I felt the main character was thinking twenty times faster than me - if that makes any sense.
