4/5⭐️ Read

Finally just finished this book yesterday, and I feel like for how short it was, it sure took me a long time it feels!

I thought it was very slow, and not heart racing like I like my thrillers. It was not keeping me wanting to read.

Once things started to come together, it got a little more interesting, but still nothing that wowed me.

What did you think of this book?

Also are there more that I have to read??😭

If you're looking for thrillers that maintain a gripping pace, it's important to compare various titles. Consider popular recommendations in the genre, such as "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" by Stieg Larsson or "Gone Girl" by Gillian Flynn. Both novels have captivated readers with their engaging plots and unexpected twists, offering a stark contrast to slower-paced stories. Don't forget to explore lists of bestselling thrillers, as these often include hidden gems and emerging authors worth checking out. Reading community discussions online can also enhance your understanding and introduce you to books you might not have considered. Analyzing reader reviews is useful, as it offers insights on pacing, plot development, and character depth, allowing you to find your next thrilling read that matches your preference for a more accelerated pace. Many book clubs and forums also share recommendations, helping you discover exciting novels to keep you on the edge of your seat.
