This is my third Sager and I have very much enjoyed all three.
I think he’s a great storyteller.
This one tells the story of a woman who returns to a place she experienced a childhood tragedy, both to confront her ghosts and to attempt to solve the mystery.
There are multiple twists throughout, some big ones and lots of small misdirections.
Much of the story centers around two groups of teenage friends, and includes all the emotional drama you would expect.
One event near the end was a little too convenient, but overall no worse than you find in most fiction.
Great read. Highly recommend.

Barely even spoilers but just in case….>!I really enjoyed the extra twist at the very end, though it opens up some questions of the earlier events. Whether they were actually real instead of hallucinations, and of course opens many completely unanswered questions. Usually I’m good with shocking endings like this, but I would have really liked an epilogue with some questions answered. Oh well.!<

I think I’m done with the Bobiverse for now.
I can always refresh my memory with some spoiler filled summaries and read books 4-6 later.

The last quarter or so of this one almost hooked me enough to continue, but really it’s a great stopping point I think. I was only invested in maybe half the storylines.

It’s weird, I really enjoyed these.
They are well written.
They are kinda funny.
It’s fun space stuff.
But, they just don’t capture my excitement.
There’s just something off.
I’m sure I’ll keep going. Just not now

This is my second Darby Kane and I think it confirmed I’ll read them all eventually.
Again I was very entertained and enjoyed her writing style.

Once again, you’re not sure who to root for.
Somehow you’re rooting for two parties.
There was less sarcasm in this one, though plenty of wit and intrigue to keep me interested.
I liked the overall storyline better in this one, but didn’t enjoy the characters as much.

I think the title of the other Kane I read (What the Wife Knew) actually fits this book better.
Also, this title fits that story better.
Just my opinion of course, but I found that interesting.

One complaint I’ll put in spoilers just in case.
>!There were not enough “who done it” options in this one. It was pretty obvious it would be one of the main characters or some unknown out of left field. I definitely don’t like when there are too many options and you don’t get to explore any of them well, but there can also be too few!<

Well I finished my 100.
I decided to go with something I knew I’d like, big fan of the Davenport books.
This one was just as good as most, and had one of the best twists I can remember from these books.
Always great dialogue in these.
Slow problem solving that feels more real than others I’ve read where all the breaks are too coincidental.
When I finally reach the end of these, I’ll just add them right back to the rotation.

This one was pretty good.
You immediately start to side with a bad person.
Then you find out pretty quick there are lots of bad people in this book.
It has excellent dialogue. Witty and sarcastic.
A touch too much sometimes but overall I really enjoyed it, good dialogue is very important to me.
Easily a 3.5 stars for me, maybe a 4.
Very entertaining and I’ll definitely read more of her books.

Not really spoilers but better safe than sorry.
>!I can comfortably say this has more twists than your average thriller.!<
>!Pretty sure at least twice something flipped and flipped back in the same chapter.!<
>!If I had one complaint, it would be too many turns. Especially near the end.!<
>!It was constant.!<
>!Like ping pong. Or a revolving door.!<

I enjoyed this book.
It was not something I couldn’t put down, it was not very thrilling, some of it was predictable, but it was entertaining.
Much of it was reading to two neurotic people second guess every thought in their own heads.
Some of that was funny and well done.
Some of it was repetitive and boring.
The twist was not very shocking, but pieces of it were unexpected.
Would you be disappointed you read this? Not likely.
Would you recommend it to book club? Not likely.

I enjoyed this because it was exactly what I expected it to be. It didn’t try to be anything more or something different. Sometimes you need a book that doesn’t have wild and crazy twists and turns. Just give me an interesting story that’s well written. That’s what this was.

There was nothing overly shocking. Couple of things tied up too easily and a couple left intentionally vague, but I give more leeway for that stuff in a fantasy book.

I think my only complaint is there is nothing funny. Like at all. I don’t need every book to be intentionally funny, but a little sarcasm here and there adds entertainment I think. I like to at least smile once or twice reading a book, and this certainly wasn’t scary so one or two jokes would’ve been nice.
