I have to admit that this story was a real page turner!
Once I was in about a third of the way I just couldn't wait until I could pick it up again. I read after my walks, early in the morning and for the last bit very deep into the night.…

Another one of the same author.
It is a shame ,starts with good story but it is so slow and repeats same conversations and ideas so many times it gets so boring
I didn’t finish

Enjoyed some of this book. I found the ending very disappointing and that ruined my overall opinion of the book. If it were not for the ending, I would have rated it higher. I think the author could have been much more creative. It's like…

This was a page-turner. I wanted to know what really happened and I could not turn the pages fast enough. The writer drops all sorts of hints throughout (or at I just thought I found clues that weren't clues...), but they might lead you…

Okay, so the synopsis drew me in--Man stops for a bathroom break on his way home from a ski trip and returns to his car to find his girlfriend missing. Twelve years later, when he is engaged to his former/missing girlfriend's sister, a…

While I didn't like this one as much as Behind Closed Doors, it was still a pretty fun read. The main issue I had was the main character from whom's perspective the story is mostly told from was totally annoying and unlikable to me. It…

Have you ever read a book where you think "It was okay. I liked it." and then find yourself thinking about it and then realize that you enjoyed it much more than you initially thought? I had that experience with this book. Upon reading it,…

Fast paced, and fun to read for most of it. I could suspend my disbelief for many of the implausible actions and personality traits of the characters for most of the book, but the “shocking twist” at the end was just one too many…

This book was a super quick read. It's told by a couple of characters and switches back and forth, I had no trouble at all following along. Even a few hours after reading this, I am still thinking about it. The ending was a shocker. I am…
I tried to understand the huge disparities in the reviews -some people loved it, some people hated it. After reading it, I think I understand. All of the major characters are unlikeable, and are unreliable narrators.
But that's kind of…

BORING. REPETATIVE. The characters are annoying, flat, spineless. What a pointless story.

Agree that this is similar to Gone Girl, which I didn't like. I barely got through half of this book. The plot is totally implausible and the main characters, particularly Layla, are either vapid or in her case, wicked and self-absorbed.…

There's a major flaw in this book. The chasing around and all the mind-playing games could have ended in a day if Fynn had installed a camera outside their home. How did this escape the author when the story is set after 2010 ???

Stopped reading after the first few chapters - reminded me a lot of Gone Girl which was horrid

I read "The Breakdown" and found the ending predictable and the story so-so. Despite this, I decided to give B.A. Paris another chance by reading her latest psychological thriller.
"Bring Me Back" had so much potential and the first few…
