Lock Every Door

I'm on to my second book of my 48 hour reading challenge. I have not officially started this book but I'm excited to start it. I don't know much about the book. I just know that it is a thriller mystery book, which is something I've been into lately. I don't recall reading any Riley Sager books in the past, but it is never too late to start. I just know that the book takes place in an apartment building and that is it. I did read the prologue which didn't give me much but a ton of questions. Now I just want to binge read this book and see what it is all about. What is about this apartment building that made one of its tenants get hit by a car and never want to go back to that place?

I've been devouring this book. I can't put it down. Also I'm getting to the part where everything is being revealed and I can't spoil that for you. Jules is our main character. She is jobless after getting laid off from her job and homeless after finding her boyfriend cheating on her. Jules been crashing at her friend's house until she can get back on her feet when she sees an ad to be an apartment sitter at the most famous apartment building in Manhattan, The Bartholomew. She thinks it is too good to be true but she takes the job anyways. She even makes friends with a sitter staying in the apartment below her. But things get weird when her new friend suddenly disappears without a trace. When Jules tries to find out what happened to her friend, she falls down a rabbit hole of secrets that weren't meant to be discovered. The book does alternate between two different timelines. The times she lives at the Bartholomew and the time she has at the hospital six days after her arrival. The whole time you are reading this book and you are trying to figure out how she ended up in the hospital to begin with. What was she running from? That alone makes you want to read the book. But as you read more about her time there, you want to read more because she discovers mysteries and secrets. Its so hard for me to even put the book down long enough to do anything else. Did we get our first five star of the year? We will just have to find out once I finish the book but I do highly recommend this book.
