3 Stars

The idea of the story was something new to me, something I hadn’t read about before and it seemed interesting but the story itself, unfortunately, wasn’t what I expected. I don’t count it as a mystery and as a thriller, it didn’t excite me or thrill me. It’s slow-paced and dragged at places, there was too much information that wasn’t necessary to be told. Told in multiple POV, in both 1st and 3rd person. I went into it with high expectations but unfortunately, it wasn’t as good as I thought. Overall, it was an okay read for me and hope you enjoy it more than me.

Simone - on indefinite hiatus  - The switch from 1st to 3rd person POV would already drive me bananas, so this would definitely not be a book for me. :( Sorry it was only meh for you, babe! <3

I don't have problems with pov switching, the story itself was my problem! Thanks so much, hun! 💗

You're the fourth one who don't like pov switching! Haha! For me it's not a big deal and in this case I had more serious issues! And yes the idea was a bit different, we don't do/have escape room here! Wish it was better! *sigh* Thanks a bunch, Lorraine! 💟

Yeah, but that’s because you obviously have a much higher intelligence than us and therefore can keep up better! 😂😂. Escape Room Days is the latest craze here, but it’s a fun thing not a life or death situation....yet! 😂😂
