Ok

I was bored through most of it and wanted to vote Oliver off the island but the ending was amazing.

Suspenseful plot, frustrating performance

The plot was quick moving and well done, but the narrator was increasingly annoying it made the book hard for me to finish. Such a thick Pittsburgh accent for all the characters. It made it hard to focus on anything else. I’d read it instead of listening.

Character Development

All of the detail was a lot and it was kind of slowing down the story.

The WHOLE THING!!!!!

This book was sooooo good. I loved the suspense, the fast pace, the plot twists. I love Holly Jackson’s style of writing and cleverness. The end of this book had me on the edge of my seat and the letter from Arthur was so sweet. 👍
