Welcome to Litsy!

Super fun vacation read. I liked the dual timeline set up and found alllll the twists satisfying.

My first thriller by Alex Finlay and definitely an author I‘d read again. Audio was a mixed bag…it‘s a multi cast narration but one of the readers had this annoying over exaggerated tone which drove me bonkers!!! Still a great #twisty plot told in #DualTimeLines - I loved the 1999 Blockbuster setting - #BeKindRewind

Needed a breather from some of my heavier nonfiction reads. This is fun so far! #DualTimeLines a copycat killing? 15 years since a murder took place at a NJ Blockbuster, 4 teens were killed only one survived. Now 4 teens are killed at an icecream parlor one town away and again there‘s a sole survivor.

Wow…. Not disappointed at all with Alex Finlay‘s second book. He‘s going to be on my auto buy list from now on. Very similar to Ever Last Fear with a little timeline hopping and a tragedy. I loved it! So good. 🌟🌟🌟🌟

Started the next Alex Finlay book. Happy to see Sarah Keller again! 😀

I don‘t read a lot of thrillers - but once I heard massacre at Blockbuster - I was like, yes I need to read this immediately ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The first major twist had me like ? but subsequent twists and timeline reveals had me like ???

I wasn‘t even in the vicinity of working out who did it - which is an interesting change of pace for someone who usually has more of a clue ?️‍♀️

Sleep?! I don‘t know her

This was a good weekend/summer read. It‘s well paced and twisty. Not totally believable but who needs that in a thriller? I thought it was going to be scarier but it wasn‘t too bad!

This was my #BookSpin for June.

Wow. I really enjoyed this one! I usually don‘t love thrillers because I can usually figure out what is happening within the first 100 pages, but it wasn‘t like that with this one. I really like the timeline, the characters, and the writing! I felt the ending was a little rushed, but alas!

On New Year's Eve '99 the crew on the closing shift at a Blockbuster are murdered, leaving one survivor. The main suspect flees & is not seen again after being released for insufficient evidence. Fifteen years later a similar event happens at an ice cream parlor, leading many to think that the murderer has returned. Having worked at Blockbuster from 97-98, I have a bit of a soft spot for that connection with the novel. Although not as clever or👇

Finlay's Every Last Fear was one of my favorite thrillers of last year, so I have high hopes for his latest. I know that several Littens have praised it

Audiobook pick:
This was a decent thriller with some unexpected turns. The narrators weren't my favorite though. I might have enjoyed reading this one more.

Loved this thriller. Lots of interesting characters- I hope this becomes a series. Looking forward to more from this author!
