2.3.2016 - The Passenger

The Passenger

Thanks to NetGalley and Simon & Schuster for the opportunity to read and review this book.

I'm kind of disappointed with the less-than-glowing reviews some have given this book. I thought it was a thrilling ride!

The book begins with Tanya's husband falling down the stairs and dying. When Tanya finds him, she immediately takes off running and changes her identity. We don't understand the reason why she feels compelled to run - the first of many questions.

Tanya continues running, changing identities along the way. She meets a bartender named Blue who helps shelter her and who is running from her own secrets. Interspersed in the book are mysterious emails to/from Ryan and Jo. We don't know anything about these people or their relation to anyone else.

While it's hard to relate to Tanya's life, she is totally relatable and even likeable. You find yourself rooting for her even when she does questionable things - and she certainly does!

It's hard to say much more without revealing any of the secrets. Suffice it to say that I couldn't put this one down and the ending was amazing.

Carve some time out for this one because it's hard to put down!
