Welcome to Litsy!

This was good! It started off a bit slow, tho I did like the author‘s foreword about the serial killers in her area & that lurking fear over the community that shaped this story. But it got better & better. The disposition of the Girls felt very true to life. +the sinister behavior of men caught up in mob mentality +a sprinkling of female rage. So good.

Fantastic ride!! I love the way she writes, and the way she allows the story to unfurl to the point that my mouth watered in anticipation toward the end. Such a great ending! A lot of 70s nostalgia, and a lot of events instead of just boring beginning/mid/end. 9/10! Would highly recommend and can't wait to check out more from Jess Lourey

This book is SO good so far. What a refreshing read! I'm hooked.

It‘s a slow start to get into with lots of names at the beginning but worth sticking it out. A teenager trying to solve possible murders in her town keeps you rooting for her.

I couldn‘t put this book down for lots of reasons. Lots of references from the 70s, which is when the story takes place, a creepy story centred around a town with a whole labyrinthine tunnel system beneath it, missing girls, and a terrific main character.

Book 4 complete for the #rushathon 😀

All in all a good book. Not super memorable but it kept me interested! ⭐️⭐️⭐️✨

I really liked the way this was written. From the first page, I was sucked in and didn‘t want to put it down. I thought the story was compelling and the characters were very interesting. I did predict the ending early on, but overall I really liked this one!

In my usual spot on a Saturday to get cracking on this book! 😎☀️🌳

A client suggested this book to me. Figured I‘d give it a whirl! 😎 #rushathon

Part thriller, part coming-of-age in a dangerous town story, this audiobook brought the girls of Pantown, MN to life. Not all of them make it across “the sprint from girl to womanhood,” but those who do face unexpected twists & turns with grit. Voice of narrator gets a little soft when she voices young girls, but her range of emotions is great. #thriller #recommend #stronggirls

It wasn't a terrible read. It had a very slow start, it took me awhile to get into it. But from the middle to the end was actually very good! If the beginning would have started off the same, it would be a great read.

I really enjoyed this read. There were a few times I had to put the book down to do some research, which makes me love a book more! I wasn‘t around for the 70‘s, but let me tell you what an unsettling time to be alive with murderers. Awesome thriller! Thank you @LeahBergen 💜📖

Good. Bit hard to get into at first but once I did I enjoyed how the story unfolded. Full of twists and turns. Inspired by true events.

Excellent. Terrifying. Couldn‘t put it down!

My first bail of the year. I spent hours and about 50% in but I can't do it. It's extremely repetitive, and the character development just isn't there for me. Has great reviews, major letdown for me

First time reading this author and loved it!

I enjoyed this one especially because it was set Minnesota in a town Where I once lived. The story was good and I really loved all the 1970‘s references like Bubble Yum gum, party phone lines and having to stretch the phone cord to get some privacy. Memories of my childhood for sure.

These types of books aren't my favorite. Serial killers, the deaths of young women, icky scenarios that make my stomach turn. Once in a while, it makes for a nice change of pace. I will give this book 4 stars because it is good. The ending was the best that could be expected, which did help ease the yuck. But now I think I'll read something fluffy and comforting to get this out of my system.

This was an interesting batch of Amazon originals. 2 of them I loved (Stockholm and Catch Her In Lie), 2 of them were pretty good (Belle Mer and Uncharted Waters), 1 was too short and unfinished (His Happy Place) and 1 was horrible (Shell Game)
