This was actually so good. It was pretty thought provoking and all the things the main character was going through gave me a lot of anxiety. But if you’re into thrillers with a bit of sci-fi, I definitely recommend!

Riley Sager has done it again. This was SO good! I was hooked from page one. I slightly figured out one or two things, but the plot twists were absolutely insane. In the best way possible. Highly recommend this one!

I never thought I’d pick up the Saga graphic novels. They never interested me when they got popular and everyone was talking about them. I found the first two volumes at Goodwill so I decided to give them a shot and I’ve actually really been enjoying the series. I honestly can’t wait to read the rest now. They’re definitely a bit weird and unlike anything I’ve read before. But I’m here for it.

I actually loved this?! The Silent Patient is one of my favorite thrillers of all time. And after The Maidens, I wasn’t sure if Alex Michaelides would have another 5 star from me. But The Fury was so good. I loved the way it was written. How the narrator was talking to the audience the whole time. And the plot twists were actually insane. Every time I thought I guessed where the story was going, something else was thrown at us. I know this may not be for everyone, but if the synopsis looks intriguing I’d highly recommend picking it up!
