What would you do if you had to follow specific instructions just to stay alive with eleven strangers also all trying to stay alive? However, people will die anyway. Don’t let it be you!

This book had some great twists that kept me intrigued. I enjoyed it!

I really enjoyed this book. I was hooked from the beginning. I did not suspect the ending at all.

What is immortality worth? What would you do to achieve it?

A group of thirteen people are selected to play a game. If they survive wealth and power could be their reward.

This was a great thriller. I really enjoyed the characters and the twists. It is fast paced and grips you right from the beginning. I am left hoping there will be a second book

This is a solid 3.75 ⭐️⭐️⭐️ .. I couldn’t put it down, I was intrigued until the end. I found that the author kept adding more to the twist. At times I was questioning why and expecting it to kind of come together more but it was confusing at times what the actual point was. I can’t really say what I found confusing without spoiling the book. I just found that there were a few questions left unanswered for me. I still loved it and I look forward to more books by this author, the concept was really cool!

This book was really good! I personally don’t like a ton of world building. Just give me the basics and let my mind come up with the rest! Also when authors keep having the main characters repeat the same thing over and over it makes it obvious what the plot twist is going to be. This one… not gonna like when I met that twist I literally called the author a butt head 😅 if you are looking for a good fast paced read, this is it!

this was interesting

The first chapter pulls you in, however third person isn’t my preferred POV and it messes with me.

There’s several POV’s and I found myself getting restless trying to finish the book.

Overall it had an interesting story line

This book was great! It kept me interested the whole way through. It was face paced and there were a few plot twists you don’t see coming. Definitely a good quick read to keep you guessing the whole time.

Omg

How dare you end it like that. I need more. What happens next? Omg this was amazing. If you like thrillers and books with twists read this one. I'm so happy I found this author on tiktok and had the chance to read this amazing book.

I DNFd it at 4 chapters in. It reads like it was written by a high-schooler. And if it was, kudos. I read it on my Kindle, and there were 3 spelling mistakes, 2 words missing, and is Kieth an actual name or just Keith spelt wrong? Couldn't read it. Sorry.

a thrill ride

I’m so confused, but jazzed. There’s a whole lot of double and/or triple crossing and I didn’t always know what was going on.

keeps you interested!

This book is very interesting. It keeps you turning the page and wondering what will happen next! I enjoyed it.

I thought this was a great murder mystery story. Had a creepy escape room/saw vibe. Hoping there will be a part 2.

[Tamii McGee · Rating 5 out of 5]

Part 2? Maybe

If American Horror Story and the Jigsaw franchise had a love child…this book would be the spawn. It definitely wasn’t what I thought, but damn sure enjoyed it❣️

[Katie Gooday · Rating 4 out of 5]

Kind of reminded me of the saw franchise. Super quick and easy read.

[Shauna Adams · Rating 4 out of 5]

Thrilling, suspenseful, and fast paced that keeps you guessing even after you finish.

Lies, conspiracies, secret society, horror, suspense and so many questions.

[Grace Gorbet · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was a great book. The twists shocked me and they just kept coming. I just want a big fan of the ending.
