So bad, I couldn't finish it.
I was looking forward to Paula Hawkins new book. Unfortunately, it was so disappointing that I couldn't finish it. The switching between multiple characters made for a confusing read. Not any of the characters were relatable nor did I care about them at all.Don't waste your money.

The construction of this story is too heavy to allow flow. The story is told through the visions of so many people that you loose what it is all about. Definitively no comparison to her earlier work.

Paula Hawkins needs to rethink her narrative abilities

Terrible
Sorry, looked forward to this, but quit halfway due to too many characters, no guide to who they are or who they''re talking about (coz they're not engaged in any actions), it's a struggle to follow which timeframe each chapter is in.

Convoluted
I would have returned this book to Amazon but it was preordered and I didn't start reading it on the release date. Needs a rewrite! Too many characters. Confusing plot, running off into Neverland. I stuck it out only because (1) I couldn't return it, and (2) Girl on the Train was such a good read. What a disappointment! :-(

Don't do it
Good Lord. Struggled through it. Kept hoping it would live up to its description.Flat as a piece of white bread on the Freeway

Thank you for Girl on a Train....
Unfortunately this book had me rolling my eyes, cringing and laughing out loud in places. I'm surprised it made it to print in this state. Told from ten perspectives, all two dimensional, unlikeable and identical (except for the odd bit of swearing from a couple of characters), countless pages which should have been cut and clunky narrative devices. A huge disappointment.

Not once was riveted
Not only was i never riveted, I was so bored it took me weeks to get through it. The characters were undeveloped and unlikable and I have yet to figure out the point. What a waste of time and money.

Great, easy read.
Fantastic crime thriller. Took so many turns it nearly was the end before I figured it out. Highly recommend this book.

Slow to start riveting by the end
This book didn't suck me in the A GIRL ON A TRAIN. It took me a while to get committed to the characters. About halfway in I really started to enjoy it.

Eerie, chilling mystery
Better than a ghost story! Each character's narrative offers a haunting recount of this town's deaths that leads to twists and turns until the very end. Well crafted and told!

3.5 ***
Too many viewpoints that muddled the flow and too much unnecessary information that wasn’t interesting.

Easy read. Great book to get lost in. It's not a literary masterpiece, but I really enjoyed it and would recommend it. I did enjoy it and read it pretty quickly.

Character Driven Thriller
Review:What I Liked:Characters. I felt that the novel focused heavily on characters rather than plot.
