Ooooo it's getting sooo good!!! This book has been filled with so much intensity!! It's a great read and keeps you on the edge of your seat the entire time!! Well written and I can't wait to see what happens. I am so excited in anticipation for my questions to be answered.

Not much to really say as of this point. I'm not that far into the book yet. However, it is very engaging!! It has kept my attention and had me asking questions. So far so good, we'll see what lies ahead for this novel!

Oh this is so fun!!! I am old enough to remember these types of books from childhood but not the names of them. This is the first book I have read in this fashion and this has kept me on my toes, at the edge of my seat wanting to see what's next!! I have had laughs and scares and indecisive moments this far! I even found my way to an end and started over again. This is so fun and even better to read with a buddy!!

I want to stop reading now but I'm going to keep reading so it's not a total waste of time. I hate this book....It was so slow for 9 chapters and then things started to pick up. But I hate how the author just drones on about stuff that isn't necessary or wanted. I hate too much fluff it feels forced and dragged on like someone yelling GET TO THE POINT. I hate this, I want so badly to DNF it...

Things are heating up but MANNN did it take so much time for anything to be even remotely close to interesting.... This book is not that great at getting to the point.

It has been very dry from the start up until chapter 9 is when some excitement started happening. It has been very hard to get through. The characters are likeable just not enough to make me care what happens to them. I have put this book down so many times I refuse to DNF it so I'm pushing through. Let me know if you read and like this what your thoughts were! Without spoilers please! ❤️

It's been very slow and hard to not DNF. I have wanted to put this book down and leave it so many times. That's why it's taking so long for me to finish :/ it almost put me into a book slump! I'm still pushing on through, not because I want to know the characters. Theydon't really make me want to care about them much. I'm finishing because I love/respect Sager and his other books were great!!

With characters talking each chapter it's hard to follow. There was a lot of plot holes and noticably a lot of unanswered posed issues. Without giving any spoilers, if an author poses a question, problem, or issue (not made for the end) smoothes over it, moving beyond it without providing details, it not only makes the story confusing but it's also annoying!! Not impressed and I would DNF now if not for curiousity.

It’s all over the place. The story is told through the eyes of different people and we switch between them a few times in the book. It’s easy to keep up with who is talking, as the switch isn’t every chapter. However, where some questions were answered new ones form. And I can’t help but to think that there is going to be a plot twist I didn’t see coming. If not and the story stays course it’s dry/bland.

It just started to get creepy!! I’m looking forward to seeing all of the foreshadowing come to fruition. She just got to the motel where I am in chapter 8. More to come!!

The first few chapters were dull and listless. I kept reading hoping for something to happen or for some of the questions (created by mysterious ambiguity) to be answered but unfortunately no. It’s improving slightly yet there is more vagueness than suspense, for my taste. It almost begs to wonder, if Richard’s intentions with the mysterious vagueness was to create suspense, but that doesn’t have my reaction.

Wow... So many 360 turns had my head spinning!! I love a good plot twist that I didn't see coming but oh boy!! There was too many to count! And for it all to be wrapped up at the end... Riley Sager is a genius!!
