i adore a cat and mouse chase story and this was incredible, didn’t find myself bored or yelling at my kindle at stupid choices. felt like very natural and human responses to the situation throughout the whole book. gore was well described and not too restrained or over the top. overall really amazing cat and mouse thriller

This felt like an episode of I Survived, and I loved every bit of it. It's a 4 star read due to the fact that the ending felt rushed - as intense as the rest of the story was, I was expecting a reap banger of a conclusion. However, we were handed a happy ending wrapped in a nice little package - even if the wrapping was rushed and its missing its bow. 

All in all, a fast paced, heart in your throat thriller that I couldn't devour fast enough. I look forward to reading more from this author!

Check trigger warnings before starting this book!!! This book is everything that a woman would deem as her worst nightmare. Because the entire story happens in one night and they can’t introduce new characters, the person following the girls is pretty easy to figure out. This book was absolutely terrifying and the plot twists of why the girls were being followed left me very uneasy.

Great, quick read! This book catapulted me out of my reading slump. The action started immediately and didn't let up for a second. Very fun read for something quick and exciting.

What a page turner! The action starts almost right away really gets you into the story, didn’t want to put it down, the action never stop and was relentless. 

This however is maybe the one time I wish a book was shorter I think trimming it down it some place would have made for a even more enjoyable read. Also there was just some parts that felt a little out of place as far as what horrible people would actually do that felt like it was only there to add page count.  

But still this was a great book and is a quick read, so if you like a secluded horror feel then this is the book for you. Definitely check trigger warnings.
