A review by designsbymeghen
The Only One Left by Riley Sager

1.0

I finished this book purely out of spite so I could leave this review. I will disclaimer this to say that nothing annoys me more than unnecessary thought repetition in a story. While the story itself had potential, it was simply not good. It was incredibly repetitive; cut this thing in half, and you’re well on your way to a much better read. The characters are not interesting. They’re not likable or even hateable; they’re simply dull. And lastly, it was a sloppy, messy plot twist explosion at the end, and it was just bad. This is the last time I will unthinkingly follow a “booktok” trend. If you thought this book was good, I’m happy for you, but please don’t recommend any books to me until you’ve read some good storytelling.
