A review by marmalade_and_books
The Only One Left by Riley Sager

dark mysterious tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? No
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

3.75

The author went a little crazy with the plot twists at the end, but overall, it was an engaging read. I’ve never really read a ton in the  thriller/mystery genre, so this felt like a good foray into that realm. I’m still marinating on the end, so my rating might change.
