The twists and turns kept me engaged and the narrator was very, very good. Excellent read!

I had to stop listening after two ridiculous incidents concerning the female character. Male authors have got to stop writing about women’s sexuality and feelings and bodies if they’re not going to do it well. Not even a few chapters in and already the female character has felt a “stirring” at the mere mention of the main character’s name and has been described as being obviously cold, which was commented on and noticed by two male characters (IYKYK). It is such a stereotypical trope that bad male authors use when writing female characters, and I cannot eye roll hard enough. Like, Tell Me You’re Bad At Writing Without Telling Me You’re Bad At Writing.

I have really enjoyed Riley Sager’s other books, so I was looking forward to this new one. However, it was just…not that good. The characters were flat, it wasn’t believable that 40 year olds would still be so caught up with a tragedy involving a kid they only knew for a short while 30 years ago, and the dialogue seemed immature for everyone’s age. I know these books are just entertainment and not great literature, but the writing and story were not as good as Sager’s other works. Also, the narrator was pretty bad - he made the dialogue of nearly every character have a tone of 13 year old petulance and whining, especially the women characters. His voices for female characters were awful. Overall, this gets a thumbs down and a huge eye roll from me.

The plot was all over the place. The characters had contradictions that, rather than deepening the character development, it just did not make sense. Also, a big “Ugh, gross” to men writing women so badly. This almost sounded like it was written by AI.

I wish I'd read the reviews before wasting money on this book. It's AWFUL. Boring, and the narrator sounds almost like an electronic voice. I'm sad I used a credit on this - learned my lesson! This is apparently not the same Wendy Webb I thought I was getting, whose books I have enjoyed immensely. No wonder it was so different and so horrible. Don't waste your money; worse, I can't return it. Ugh.
