Description

***THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER*** 'One of the most addictive thrillers I've read this year. A compulsive page-turner with high stakes and a heroine you find yourself absolutely rooting for' Gytha Lodge Charlie Jordan is being driven across the country by a serial killer. Maybe. Behind the wheel is Josh Baxter, a stranger Charlie met by the college ride share board, who also has a good reason for leaving university in the middle of term. On the road they share their stories, carefully avoiding the subject dominating the news - the Campus Killer, who's tied up and stabbed three students in the span of a year, has just struck again. Travelling the lengthy journey between university and their final destination, Charlie begins to notice discrepancies in Josh's story. As she begins to plan her escape from the man she is becoming certain is the killer, she starts to suspect that Josh knows exactly what she's thinking. Meaning that she could very well end up as his next victim. A game of cat and mouse is about to play out. In order to win, Charlie must do only one thing . . . survive the night. ************************* Praise for Riley Sager 'Dark, frightening and twisty story that you won't be able to put down' Shari Lapena on Home Before Dark 'Clever, twisty, and altogether spine-chilling. . . [A] deliciously terrifying story' Ruth Ware on Home Before Dark 'Great . . . If you liked Gone Girl, you'll like this' Stephen King on Final Girls

I know a lot of people don't like this book, but I didn't find it all that bad. It had some good twists, though the villain was pretty predictable. However, I will admit there are some disconnects. Some things (<spoiler>like why her boyfriend raced to save her from the killer when he was the killer</spoiler>) just don't make sense, and there were a few plot holes. My biggest issue was the timeline. All of that stuff with Josh felt like it took several hours. Not 1.5 to 2. Hearing the timeline later in the story really threw me off. So while it's not the best book, I don't necessarily think it was the worst.
