Enjoying this so far - the premise seems to mirror the movie The Hunt, yet it has not been revealed yet why our participants have been chosen to play a game of hide & seek, so as the book continues it might be more Hunger Games than The Hunt, but right now, this book is the perfect “weight” for me (not too heavy or mentally demanding) but still has an air of “thrill” or suspense.

Honestly ready for this book to be over. Not sure if it’s the narration of the audiobook but it’s just so slow & I’m waiting for something to HAPPEN.

Hoping Last House on Needless Street is better than this, or that the last 20% of this book rewards me for my patience.

Ok, I know I said no more new books until I finished the digital galley of Alex Michaelides’ The Fury, but I’m listening to the audiobook of Looking Glass Sound, so that doesn’t really count, right? I need some entertainment as I toil away, reorganizing my closet - so it’s not like I’m giving up time that could be used sitting down to read a tiny digital copy of a book on my phone… I’m multi-tasking!

Thank you to NetGalley & Celadon Books for the opportunity to read this in advance of its 1/24 release! I’ll be temporarily shelving the books I’ve been reading this week to devote my full attention to this one - I’ve been anxious to read it, as I enjoyed Alex Michaelides’ previous books (The Maidens & The Silent Patient.)
