A dark night. Two strangers in a car, traveling down dark roads. Set before the days of cell phones and internet. I thought I was in for an awesome ride, but things took a detour.

Survive the Night is a page-turning thriller set in 1991 where the stupidest female protagonist ever decides to do a ride share road trip with a strange man just two months after her best friend was murdered by a serial killer still on the loose. Since she’s such an unreliable narrator, both she AND readers are prime targets for gaslighting, all at the mercy of a cray cray antagonist with a truly laughable agenda.
The story is fine. I was never bored. Riley Sager’s, The Last Time I Lied is still on top of my favourite thrillers and i think my expectations were way too high. While the writing in this one is still good, it’s not oozing with atmosphere the way I hoped it would. The last few chapters were a bit too complicated for me. The motives and character actions weren’t very realistic, and I personally expected something with a bit more depth.
Overall, this is a decent read that kept me engaged but it lacked the WOW factor. I have a feeling many others will love this one, so keep an eye out for other reviews.
