⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Only One Left — Riley Sager

6 stars if I could!

WOW. Just WOW.

I was well and truly hooked from start to finish. The twists, the secrets, the constant second-guessing… I absolutely loved every minute of it.

This is such a well-paced, brilliantly written thriller. The characters were so cleverly crafted, and you could tell there was always just a little bit more to them than met the eye. I spent so much time trying to work everyone out, never quite managing to get there.

I can’t say I particularly loved any of the characters, but that’s not what I want from a thriller. I want to be kept guessing, to question everything and to be completely blindsided. Although, I really was rooting for Kit and Lenora to get their happy ending.

And just when you think you’ve got your head around everything… THAT LAST PAGE. Another shocking twist!

Honestly, just awesome. An absolute five-star read that would get six if Goodreads would let me.

If you love a thriller that keeps you guessing right until the very last page, this one is for you!
