Fab little story …。 Part of the quick reads collection I read this in under an hour。 Edie， Ryan and Jake have been friends forever， in the opening page Ryan Is stood over Jake’s body with the murder weapon in his hand， he claims he has nothing to do with it。 Who do you believe？

Absolutely dire。 Ludicrous storyline。 Until the halfway point I was thinking it about a three， then the first chapter of part two descended into farce。 By the epilogue it was embarrassingly bad。 I know it's only a short story but her first two books were so good。 A shame。 Absolutely dire。 Ludicrous storyline。 Until the halfway point I was thinking it about a three， then the first chapter of part two descended into farce。 By the epilogue it was embarrassingly bad。 I know it's only a short story but her first two books were so good。 A shame。 。。。more

Bože， neverili by ste aká som frustrovaná po dočítaní。 Mám chuť kričať。 MILUJEM Paulu Hawkins。 Hoci thrillery som dávno prestala čítať， ona píše tak fantasticky， tak čtivo， tak napínavo， že by som od nej prečítala čokoľvek。 Takže som si nemohla nechať ujsť ani túto krátku novinku。 A bolo to opäť vynikajúce。 V krátkom rozsahu Paula zaplietla a rozplietla naozaj napínavý krimi príbeh o vražde， zrade， minulosti。 Neskutočne dobre premyslené a ešte lepšie spracované。 Na konci som už ani nedýchala。 Vl Bože， neverili by ste aká som frustrovaná po dočítaní。 Mám chuť kričať。 MILUJEM Paulu Hawkins。 Hoci thrillery som dávno prestala čítať， ona píše tak fantasticky， tak čtivo， tak napínavo， že by som od nej prečítala čokoľvek。 Takže som si nemohla nechať ujsť ani túto krátku novinku。 A bolo to opäť vynikajúce。 V krátkom rozsahu Paula zaplietla a rozplietla naozaj napínavý krimi príbeh o vražde， zrade， minulosti。 Neskutočne dobre premyslené a ešte lepšie spracované。 Na konci som už ani nedýchala。 Vlastne， na nejakej poslednej kapitole som si myslela， že tomu dám 5*。Ale potom prišiel ten epilóg。 PREČO？！ Úplne ho neznášam a pokazil mi celú， dovtedy takmer dokonalú knihu。 Toto budem ešte chvíľu spracovávať， lebo fakt s nim nie som spokojná。 Jedna moja časť však musí uznať， že to bol od autorky geniálny ťah。 No i tak to neznášam。Ale aj tak to chcete čítať！ 。。。more

From the bestselling author of The Girl on the Train comes a brilliant， short quickread at 120 pages。 Perfect for me right now with a 9 day old newborn。 I really enjoyed this was gripped from the first line。 Kept me guessing and doubting the characters throughout。 The story focuses on three main characters Edie， Jake and Ryan who has been long term friends for ages。 But from the start Jake is dead。 Why？ How？ Who？ An unexpected outcome that relates to their teenage years and a brilliant epilogue。 From the bestselling author of The Girl on the Train comes a brilliant， short quickread at 120 pages。 Perfect for me right now with a 9 day old newborn。 I really enjoyed this was gripped from the first line。 Kept me guessing and doubting the characters throughout。 The story focuses on three main characters Edie， Jake and Ryan who has been long term friends for ages。 But from the start Jake is dead。 Why？ How？ Who？ An unexpected outcome that relates to their teenage years and a brilliant epilogue。 A well deserved four stars from me。 Highly recommend。 My first book read since having baby #3。 。。。more

A good story， up until the epilogue。 Up until then， it could have been a full length book。 Shame about the ending。

Great short story， loved the ending and last 10 or so pages。 I don’t think it warrants anything higher than a 3-star but quick to read and a bit thrilling with a murder mystery angle。

Brilliant！ A story with a start，middle and an end in 120 pages。 Exactly what I needed， would definitely recommend it to anyone struggling to read at the moment。 Going to try a couple more of the quick reads。

Edie， her husband Jake and best friend Ryan have been inseparable since childhood - their friendship was a bond like no other， they thought it was unbreakable。 Until Jake is brutally murdered， and Ryan is accused of the murder leaving Edie lost and alone in the house once full of life。 But someone from the past has been waiting out of sight for their lives to fall apart - so they can finally have their turn。 As you'd expect from Hawkins， this was a tense， twisty， stomach-punch of a story。 Creati Edie， her husband Jake and best friend Ryan have been inseparable since childhood - their friendship was a bond like no other， they thought it was unbreakable。 Until Jake is brutally murdered， and Ryan is accused of the murder leaving Edie lost and alone in the house once full of life。 But someone from the past has been waiting out of sight for their lives to fall apart - so they can finally have their turn。 As you'd expect from Hawkins， this was a tense， twisty， stomach-punch of a story。 Creating an eerie atmosphere and rich backstory with so few words， and still leaving me mystified and waiting for the truth。 A chilling read from a master of misdirection。 。。。more

Rating: 3。5/5A well-executed short story。There is a real skill in being able to compose a fully rounded story in such a short format and this contribution to the "Quick Reads" series from Paula Hawkins is a decent example。 It is neatly structured， has some pleasing plot developments， is well-paced and holds the attention of the reader。Well worth a read。 and a nice addition to the commendable Quick Reads series。 Rating: 3。5/5A well-executed short story。There is a real skill in being able to compose a fully rounded story in such a short format and this contribution to the "Quick Reads" series from Paula Hawkins is a decent example。 It is neatly structured， has some pleasing plot developments， is well-paced and holds the attention of the reader。Well worth a read。 and a nice addition to the commendable Quick Reads series。 。。。more

I had high expectations for this book， after reading the girl on the train and absolutely loving it。 And up until around the 90 page mark I was only going to rate it about 3⭐️。Okay so this book is about 3 child hood friends。 Two who married each other and the other who stayed their best friend。 Although one of them （the best friend） is framed for murdering one of them （the husband）。 However， throughout the book we find out some very un expected things， and see all is not as it seems。Without spoi I had high expectations for this book， after reading the girl on the train and absolutely loving it。 And up until around the 90 page mark I was only going to rate it about 3⭐️。Okay so this book is about 3 child hood friends。 Two who married each other and the other who stayed their best friend。 Although one of them （the best friend） is framed for murdering one of them （the husband）。 However， throughout the book we find out some very un expected things， and see all is not as it seems。Without spoiling anything， this book is such a fun， short， mystery， that you can read in one sitting！ It took me less than 2。5hrs altogether， not including the breaks I had to take。I’d give this book a 4。3⭐️ solely for the ending！ 。。。more
