About this listen

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.

Siri- Who’s the killer?

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. 🤷🏼‍♀️

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

Exciting!

Although the middle felt long at some points, I loved the beginning and ending. The flashbacks were the best part and I enjoyed the characters. The performance was good overall. I'd recommend this book.

Slow and drawn out but good ending.

It was a tough grind wanted to stop several times as progress was too slow but decided to persist and it came together in the end. Overall a good book but not really a favorite.

A VERY slow buildup

A little too slow for my liking. It felt like nothing was happening until the last third of the story. The main character wasn’t very likeable until the very end. Also the narrator sounds like Siri, which affected my enjoyment of the book. I don’t think I’d listen to an audiobook with that same narrator again.
