Reviews for A Quiet Retreat

[Eedge Eeva · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

One more cozy thriller complete. Good story and good twist, still some Why's left but not always you can have all the questions on the hand.
Good in general!

[Meghan Laue · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

The writing is amazing. The story was too domestic for me but I wanted to give this author a try. She is very talented. Despite the content not being my favorite I enjoyed her writing style. The narrator was amazing. Never tired of her voice.

Great book-it was captivating from beginning to end, and no filter, each line was necessary! The narrator did a wonderful Job! I highly recommend a listen ?

[Robyn Butterfield · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Average thriller. I figured out the majority of the plot early in. I also thought the buildup of the story was too long and not enough story for the last third of the book. (A lopsided story development which left me unfulfilled after reading this book.) Not sure if I would consider reading a second novel by this author. I’ve read about 250 thriller type novels.

I usually love this author, but this one wasn’t enthralling. The actor wasn’t consistent with her character voices, and at times I forgot I was listening to a human and not A.I.

[Rhonda Morrison · Rating: 2 out of 5 stars]

I was done after bulging muscles on a man, plus the cast was too young. I didn't enjoy the writing style.

[Angel Goins · Rating: 1 out of 5 stars]

Good job! I couldn’t guess the outcome. The plot had an interesting twist.
