You’ve been warned!

As, I followed their stories, I predicted where a couple of them were going, but I was shocked by how others turned out.

A unique, fast paced read, that alternates stories with each chapter...I finished the book in two sittings...

The second book I have read by John Marrs, (The Good Samaritan) and neither disappointed me!

Would you send in a swab?

Jen Brodehl Also did you ever watch the Netflix show? The reviews aren’t great so just curious about your thoughts. :)

Catherine (alternativelytitledbooks) - in a book slump :( I’ve heard the series is very different from the book so I’ve been hesitant to try it, but you never know! Fab review Jayme! 💖

I am sticking with the books! 😉📚


Derek (I'M BACKKKK!) Great review, Jayme! I watched the first episode of The One on Netflix but it was drastically different from the book. The show is essentially just the concept Marrs created. I still may go back to it at some point.
