Rating: 2.5/5

« I don’t think they planned to be gone for very long. Certainly not forever. » 

Riley Sager hits us with another… medium book. I’m super sad, he used to be my go-to for thrillers and suspense and now it’d my 3rd book of him that makes me feel very meh. 

80% of the story is quite repetitive and boring. The last 20% picked up the pace - however we are left with many loose ends and also, the whole thing - the culprit, the motives - were quite boring. There one, ONE, « oh my gosh?! » moment in the whole book.

Also, Riley baby, I BEG of you to start writing women that make sense.

« She stood up to me last night, which took major ovaries. » Never had it been said before - NEVER. 

We did get some gems once in a while, like : « Two truths and a lie isn’t just a game. For most people, it’s a lifestyle. »

But we also got some clichés like : « Yes, boys can break your heart and betray you, but not in the same stinging way girls can. » okay? 

Also, it is not necessary to put romance if it’s going to be as sexy as a cold dead fish.
