Last Girl Ghosted by Lisa Unger
3.0
Due to Lisa Unger's star status, this one was much hyped when it was released. The novel explores the thrills and dangers of "swiping right" and connecting to find love online. Wren Greenwood (a made-up name if ever there was one) recovered from a traumatic childhood to make a new life as an advice columnist. Her friend convinces her to try the online app Torch (aka Tinder) to find some dates and have some fun. She does so, and falls for mysterious Adam, who has her in his sexual thrall, but about whom she knows almost nothing. When he suddenly ghosts her, she decides she needs to find him, and in the course of doing so, finds a trail of missing vulnerable young women who also swiped right on Adam, under various pseudonyms.
This is a solid Lisa Unger read if you're a huge fan, however there were a few things that didn't work for me. As is typical of many of her novels, there was the usual jumping back and forth in time and while I don't mind this on occasion, it is overused. There were also some minor events in the novel that seemed unrealistic and a bit silly to me, but I won't outline since they would be spoilers. I did find that it was a little longer than it needed to be and it dragged a bit for me at times. Overall it was just OK for me, which is reflected in the three star rating.
