I went looking for a review of this book as I just finished it in one sitting. I could not put it down. I loved the setting of a cul-de-sac where you just don't know quite everything about your neighbors. I also thought the characters were so believable. Every time Ethan heard a "ping" on his phone and could barely open his eyes to look at what the camera captured, I felt such fear! I loved your review and am so glad you enjoyed it as much as I did. Thank you for sharing. Elizabeth
I hesitated watching as I am about 150 pgs from the end. Riley has become a favorite of mine since i read The Only One Left last year. I love that I never really figure it out because of the twists. I am loving it so far and can't wait to finish .
Hi Violet, Great review. I got the book, four days ago and read it immediately (in one seat). Riley Sager is one of my favorite thriller writer and I love all of his books. It amazed me (without you knowing), how you succeed to reflect my thought about this book so perfectly .......For that, BRAVO! My favorite books: The Last Time I Lied, Lock Every Door, Home Before Dark and Middle of the Night.
I loved this so much. I didn’t have a clue about the twist either. I think this is my favorite of his so far. At one point I laughed out loud, and the next I was crying. I loved everything about this book. It can’t get any better than this. Definitely there were supernatural elements. For sure.
It's such a great shirt. I found it in a comic book shop years ago and had to buy it because it has not only such a famous line on it from Sandman, but My Chemical Romance quote it on their second album (and they're my favorite band).
I'm hoping I like this better than Sager's last book; that last one really didn't work for me surprisingly. I'll be picking it up once I finish The Midnight Feast by Lucy Foley (not sure yet that I'd recommend it, I'm only halfway through).
I definitely think Middle of the Night is one of his best so far, but I also really enjoyed The Only One Left. Hopefully this one works for you! The twist was fantastic.
It's definitely not supernatural the way that House Across the Lake was. That one really surprised me because I'm so used to his books having logical explanations.
