Thank you to St. Martin's Press and NetGalley for the gifted ebook of Stay Awake!  All opinions in this review are my own.

Stay Awake started off really strong.  I devoured the first 25% of this novel in one sitting.  I liked the structure of the novel with multiple points of view and flashbacks, which help reveal new information without making one of the characters recite it.

I try not to judge thrillers based on the ending because it's difficult to write a satisfying end to all the tension that's been built up.  While the big reveal was a little lackluster, I felt like there were still some loose ends that never got tied up.  The biggest one was that motive was never explained for the original crime that started everything.  You can deduce why they did it, but it still seems weird that was never addressed at the end.

Overall, the reading experience of Stay Awake is very chilling.  I am excited to read more of the author's works.
