This is the first fictional audiobook I’ve read and I thoroughly enjoyed it!

The Midnight Man follows the residents of Slayton after 5 teenage girls play the midnight game and one goes missing. Sarah has to work to try and track down the culprit by looking into the past.

It’s very rare that I’m shocked by a thriller at this point. But this one was definitely able to shock me! It actually took me a while to fully wrap my head around the twists. This was great to listen to during October, it had a great spooky vibe. However, this did reduce a little after the first chapter (which I really loved).

It’s possible that I may have enjoyed this more if I had read the physical book. I’m still new to audiobooks and did find I kept drifting off and then struggled to follow what was happening. That being said, I thought the narrators and finished production were excellent. I admit I did find one of the final twists hard to get my head around, I’m not sure if that was because of the format, but I’m still trying to fit the pieces together in my head. I will definitely be grabbing future books in this series!

I would recommend this audiobook to thriller/mystery lovers! I want to thank Tandem Collective, Embla books, Bonnier books and Caroline Mitchell for allowing me to listen to a copy of this audiobook and give my personal thoughts.
