I listened to this on audio and ended up really enjoying it. It was just a fun, escapist novel. The main character was frustrating at times, but I ended up really liking her.

This started off really good, but I have to admit I wasn‘t as interested in some parts (possible like the Russian spy stuff and when the reader followed the “bad guys”). But following Cassie as she tried to figure out what to do certainly kept me interested. And knowing and following the “bad guys” separately did keep up the tension in parts of the book, so there was a reason for it.

Bluebird This author is hit or miss for me, but still never less than a 3 star read. (edited) 9mo
LibraryCin @tpixie i didn't know there was a show based on the book 9mo
LibraryCin @Bluebird i think I've liked everything I've read by her so far. 9mo
tpixie @LibraryCin yes. It‘s wild. The 1st season is based on the book. 9mo

THE FLIGHT ATTENDANT eBook is only $2.99 right now. Have you read the novel that @USATODAY called an "expertly turned thriller"? @DoubledayBooks

Meh.
It was a bit difficult to empathize with the protagonist, as her poor decision-making skills played a big part in all of her problems. It's an okay read, but I wouldn't rush out to pick it up. Now I have to check out the show, because I do feel the storyline has potential.

StillLookingForCarmenSanDiego I had to stop watching the show after 2 episodes for the same reason. She was giving me anxiety with all her bad decisions. Lol. 1y
Kris10H Maybe I'll just skip the show. Lol 1y

Watched just the first episode of the series ages ago and never made time for it again but when I noticed this on Cloud Library I decided to give it a go.
I liked it.

It was an okay thriller. The beginning and end of the book were good, but the middle was a bit boring.

After two days of #rain (which is a big deal here in #Dubai), glad to be back in the garden with my morning #coffee!
