Okay, we've now read 5 Megan Miranda books in 5 days, here are the current stats:
1. The Only Survivors (2023)
2. The Perfect Stranger (2017)
3. All the Missing Girls (2016)
4. The Last to Vanish (2022)
5. Such a Quiet Place (2021)
The Perfect Stranger was - in my opinion - the definition of a taut thriller. I could feel myself being pulled to the conclusion and knowing there were so many things that go one way or the other, but that we had most of it figured out ... and even though by the end you had it all figured out, that last page, last interaction, is something I'm going to remember for a long time.
I went over the basics of the synopsis / plot with my husband over lunch the day after finishing this one, and as I told him what happened at the end (see: last interaction) I watched his eyebrows raise and he started asking me follow up questions and I just love when I can get him involved in a book I'm reading like that!
One more MM book to go for the time being (The Last House Guest) but this has been such a fun and unexpected author binge read that I've thus far really enjoyed!
