This is a great, quick read. If you love thrillers and trying to figure out the mystery this book is for you! I found it a bit predictable, but a lot of thrillers/mysteries are. I wish we got a little more background on the main character and why she made some of the decisions she did.

The best book I have read in years! Beautiful prose, lovable characters, and a heartbreaking timeless story. I wish I could experience this book again for the first time.

This is a great informational book for anyone looking to learn more about leadership, positive psychology and growth mindset. This book is really an introduction into the world of leadership, but gives the reader a lot of prompts, reflective moments, and tools/resources to continue their leadership journey after the book ends.

This book just missed the mark for me. It was fast paced in places it needed to slow down, and sped right past pivotal plot points. One by One from Ruth Ware is a better wintery/cabin thriller that will leave readers a bit more satisfied.

Poor attempt at poetry. I was so excited to give this a read, as I saw some glowing reviews but what even was this! It's not poetry, its not a novel, and its not an autobiography. Just ramblings on a page that made no sense.

This was just bad. Cheesy dialogue, typical women stereotypes, and lots of nonsense. Felt like an attempt at a rom-com but it just didn't do it for me. I don't see myself ever picking this book up again.

Great read! However I feel like the last 40 pages are unnecessary and I was just waiting for the book to officially end.

Some of the details in this book are just so unnecessary. I felt like it went on and on about the scenery and landscapes when that wasn't an important part of the book. I would have loved a more intimate look into the characters personal relationships with others and less of the internal dialogue. The overall story premise was good, I just didn't enjoy the writing style which made it hard to get through.
