Two Truths and a Lie. The girls played it all the time in their cabin at Camp Nightingale. Vivian, Natalie, Allison, and first-time camper Emma Davis, the youngest of the group. But the games ended the night Emma sleepily watched the others sneak out of the cabin into the darkness. The last she - or anyone - saw of them was Vivian closing the cabin door behind her, hushing Emma with a finger pressed to her lips. Now a rising star in the NYC art scene, Emma's paintings catch the attention of Francesca Harris-White, the socialite and wealthy owner of the very same Camp Nightingale.

No visitors. No nights spent away from the apartment. No disturbing the other residents, all of whom are rich or famous or both. These are the only rules for Jules Larsen’s new job as an apartment sitter at the Bartholomew, one of Manhattan's most high-profile and mysterious buildings. As she gets to know the residents and staff of the Bartholomew, Jules finds herself drawn to fellow apartment sitter Ingrid. When Ingrid confides that the Bartholomew is not what it seems, Jules brushes it off as a harmless ghost story...until the next day, when Ingrid disappears.

Twenty-five years ago, Maggie Holt and her parents, Ewan and Jess, moved into Baneberry Hall, a rambling Victorian estate in the Vermont woods. Three weeks later they fled in the dead of night, an ordeal Ewan later recounted in a nonfiction book called House of Horrors. His horror memoir of ghostly happenings and encounters with malevolent spirits became a worldwide phenomenon, rivaling The Amityville Horror in popularity — and skepticism.

Story
Now reduced to a schoolyard chant, the Hope family murders shocked the Maine coast one bloody night in 1929. While most people assume seventeen-year-old Lenora was responsible, the police were never able to prove it. Other than her denial after the killings, she has never spoken publicly about that night, nor has she set foot outside Hope’s End, the cliffside mansion where the massacre occurred. It’s now 1983, and home-health aide Kit McDeere arrives at a decaying Hope’s End to care for Lenora after her previous nurse fled in the middle of the night.

You knew a teenager like Charlie Crabtree. A dark imagination, a sinister smile - always on the outside of the group. Some part of you suspected he might be capable of doing something awful. Twenty-five years ago, Crabtree did just that, committing a murder so shocking that it's attracted that strange kind of infamy that only exists on the darkest corners of the internet - and inspired more than one copycat.

Publisher's Summary
The national and international best seller.
Ten years ago, six friends went on vacation. One made it out alive...
In that instant, college student Quincy Carpenter became a member of a very exclusive club - a group of survivors the press dubbed “The Final Girls”: Lisa, who lost nine sorority sisters to a college dropout's knife; Sam, who endured the Sack Man during her shift at the Nightlight Inn; and now Quincy, who ran bleeding through the woods to escape the massacre at Pine Cottage. Despite the media's attempts, the three girls have never met.
Now, Quincy is doing well - maybe even great, thanks to her Xanax prescription. She has a caring almost-fiancé; a popular baking blog; a beautiful apartment; and a therapeutic presence in Coop, the police officer who saved her life. Her mind won’t let her recall the events of that night; the past is in the past...until the first Final Girl is found dead in her bathtub and the second Final Girl appears on Quincy's doorstep.
Blowing through Quincy's life like a hurricane, Sam seems intent on making her relive the trauma of her ordeal. When disturbing details about Lisa's death emerge, Quincy desperately tries to unravel Sam's truths from her lies while evading both the police and bloodthirsty reporters. Quincy knows that in order to survive she has to remember what really happened at Pine Cottage.
Because the only thing worse than being a Final Girl is being a dead one.

good
I had the ending kinda figured out. The characters were fairly predictable. I would reccomend it to someone who doesn't read a lot of mystery thriller type books though. The premise of someone being a Final Girl was great and enjoyed the originality of it.

Kept me guessing ..... and it was a shock by the end
I loved this book. It was amazing to read.
I was convinced that one person is the killer then I change my mind to another person then I was surprised by someone who was not a primary suspect in my mind lol
It was a smart book not the kind of book I like to read in one sitting I needed to think about the beautiful scenes and the build up of the story.

I really enjoyed this story. However, the narrator’s voice sounds like Siri. I don’t think I could listen to another story with that voice. 🤷🏼♀️

Effective Suspense
After discovering Riley Sager about a year ago, he has become a go-to Psychological Thriller author for me.
Sager's characterization is impressive (although he inevitably writes flawed females), he makes his prose feel like the storyteller is sitting on the stool at the end of the bar (although dropping frequent modern/pop-culture references dooms his work to being dated someday - honestly, who is even going to know who 'Oprah' is in 50 years?), and the only thing predictable about his plot resolution is that it's going to be unpredictable (although I guessed this one).
'Final Girls' fits that pattern reliably. Quincy Carpenter - the lone survivor of a Slasher-Flick-styled massacre - is a mysterious protagonist with suppressed memories & psychological damage, the sinuous plot is engrossing & relatable (and nail-biting), and the twist at the climax of the story is shocking but plausible.
Erin Bennett beautifully reads the First-person (modern-day) parts of the book, with Hillary Huber impressively doing Third-person perspective descriptions of the terrifying events in Quincy's past. Both readers provide admittedly imperfect but far above-average performances. Penguin Audio did a marvellous job casting this project.
I rate this Sager effort 8.5/10 stars. It's definitely worth a Credit if you're looking for a quality Thriller.

Disappointed at the twist, the ending.
I really wanted to like this...I purchased because the ratings were so high and so many had taken the time to rate it.
I was excited and thought oh maybe Ill listen to this and then the others by this author that are also so highly rated it seems. Now I don’t know if I should risk it.
The story was good up until the twist was revealed...and I was bummed. The ending was saccharine and disappointing.
Narration was great. Love Erin Bennett!!

Slow and redundant
It was pretty slow and repetitive until the end, and the characters weren’t very interesting or well developed. There were two narrators, one of them was almost impossible to listen to as she sounded very robotic. It was redundant and would’ve been better if it was half the length
