— Kirkus Reviews" This story was pretty good but the ending was a disappointment. The story keeps you wondering what’s going to happen and hoping for a twist, but it never happens. It just kind of comes to an end. Overall it was Ok. "
— Heath, 10/27/2021" This book was pretty good. It had a bit of suspense and the narration was good. It was a short book, so it was perfect for a short road trip we took. "
