Another HIT by this author! i love her YA thrillers, such easy reads, good pacing, and good twists I never see coming!

I really enjoyed the first book by this author but this one didn’t do it for me. Right from the start it felt too YA for my liking. Others will probably love it but it wasn’t my fave.

Thank you to the publisher for the gifted ARC! After loving this author’s debut I was super excited to read this new YA thriller. Unfortunately it was just okay for me. The character’s really bothered me for some reason, and so much of it seemed over the top. It was twisty and popcorn-thriller-y but overall it was just fine. I’m not sure I would go out of my way to recommend it to anyone. I’d steer them in the direction of the prior book by Megan Lally.

Rich people SUCK!! Finally got some consequences though 😏 Would have liked more than just a group chat epilogue, but it added a nice layer to the story

I COULD NOT put this book down!! It truly felt like a ride or die high speed chase the whole way through. 10/10 would recommend.

This is the second book by Megan Lally, and I think she is going to be an auto-buy author for me.

What a way to kick off the new year!

One of the YA thrillers I like and I devoured this upppppp! Very bingeable and I highly recommendddd

No Place Left to Hide is one of those books you really can't think too much about. Read it, enjoy it and move on. Otherwise, the plot holes will start to widen bigger than the potholes in Georgia. You will definitely have to suspend your disbelief. I enjoyed the fast pacing but honestly, it could have slowed down just a tad. Overall, this was a fun read and I enjoyed it.

No place left to hide was great! I love the twists and turns that I’ve come to expect from this author and I look forward to continue reading much more!

"No Place Left to Hide" by Megan Lally is a super binge-able read that had me engaged from the start. I wanted to sit and finish it in one go, but sleep got in the way. 😉 The story follows Brooke Goodwin, a high school student who has worked her whole life to be the perfect daughter and star student. The only mark to her perfect image is a mysterious incident that threatened to ruin everything as she knows it.

I enjoyed the twists and turns, and although I managed to guess one of the twists, I was engaged with the story until the end. Thrillers are not always my go-to genre, but " No Place Left to Hide" is fast-paced, making it a quick and easy read.

Thanks to NetGally and Sourcebooks Fire for this eARC copy to read. I will definitely read more from this author!

The reason I love YA thrillers is because they are soooo bingeable and I am here for the high school drama lol

Cringey and predictable? Yes, but who cares cause it’s so easy to read and I don’t have to think hard

This book is an absolute thrill ride from beginning to end. It’s packed with suspense and has so many twists that you won’t be able to put it down. The story is super engaging, and the characters feel real. The pace never slows down, and just when you think you’ve figured it out, the plot hits you with another curveball. The ending is intense and keeps you on your toes. If you love thrillers that keep you guessing, this one’s a must-read. It’s definitely a book that’ll stick with you long after you finish it!

This was an enjoyable read, though not as groundbreaking as the author’s debut.

It’s a fast-paced and easy-to-follow thriller that kept me entertained, but I wouldn’t call it a must-read. While it held my interest, the clues were a bit too obvious, and I had figured out the culprit by the halfway mark. I wish there had been fewer hints to make the twists more shocking.

The writing is simple and accessible in a good way. At times, the tone felt a bit catty and very high school, but given that it’s a YA thriller, that makes sense. However, it definitely had a stronger YA feel compared to the author’s first book.

No Place Left to Hide is a heart-racing, taut thriller that grips readers from the very first page and refuses to let go. At its core is Brooke, a high school perfectionist whose meticulously crafted life conceals a dark, haunting secret known only as “the incident.” As she draws closer to her long-held dream of escaping the past, a seemingly innocent night of celebration spirals into a terrifying fight for survival when she and her best friend are relentlessly pursued by a sinister figure bent on unraveling the truth.

One of the novel’s most compelling aspects is its lightning-fast pacing. From the outset, the tension is palpable, escalating steadily and maintaining an atmosphere of suspense and impending doom. Though some twists may feel predictable for a keen-eyed reader, the final revelation strikes with an unexpected ferocity, deepening the sense of unease and adding a chilling dimension to the story’s resolution.

Beyond its thrilling plot, the book delves deeply into themes of guilt, identity, and the lengths to which individuals will go to protect their secrets. Brooke, as a protagonist, is both relatable and multidimensional—her emotional journey and resourcefulness in the face of extreme danger make her a character worth rooting for, particularly for teens grappling with the pressures to uphold a flawless exterior.

In conclusion, No Place Left to Hide is a captivating, intricately crafted thriller that masterfully balances psychological complexity with relentless suspense. While its twists may not astonish every reader, the novel’s expertly woven plot and its unforgettable finale ensure that it remains an exhilarating and satisfying read for those who enjoy fast-paced, character-driven stories.

Brooke grapples with a set of unyielding standards that ultimately leads her to a fateful confrontation at a party, forever changing the course of her life. *No Place Left to Hide* delves into the weight of family expectations and the intricate social dynamics of adolescence. While the plot does offer moments of tension and mystery, it is the characters that ultimately disappoint, feeling superficial and clichéd within the young adult genre. They eerily echo the '90s teen thrillers yet fail to infuse any real depth. By the end, they become utterly intolerable, leaving the surprise conclusion feeling disappointingly flat.

I'm giving this 4.5 stars and rounding up to 5 because the last 50% of the book impressed me. A bit of a slow start but absolutely worth the read! I do feel like there could have been a little less backstory but once the action got started, it didn't stop. A well thought out plot and while I kinda guessed the ending, I didn't guess it in its entirety. Absolutely a book that makes you love to hate the characters, which is great because I don't get the chance to read too many of those. Perfect for young adult readers who are into thrillers!

When I saw that this author had written another book, I was super excited. When I read, That’s Not My Name I was hooked. This book had me hooked as well. It reminded me of a mix of Pretty Little Liars and all the other teen dramas together. I will continue to read all the books that this author puts out. Thank you to NetGalley, Megan Lally, and Sourcebooks Fire for the ARC

Fast paced quick read with twists and WHOA! moments. Megan Lally knows how to write in a compelling and engaging way to keep the interest of teen readers.

I loved Megan Lally's first book and her follow up was just as nail-bittingly suspenseful. It wasn't what I imagined and the twist in the story wasn't what I expected, but it definitely kept my attention and left issues to discuss about wealth, privilege and doing the right thing. This is one that I'm sure my students will love.

This is Megan Lally's second book and after reading her debut novel That's Not My Name and really enjoying it I knew that I had to pick this book up!

This follows Brooke, who has to keep up this imagine because of who her parents are. She has to have perfect grades, perfect clothes and just be perfect 24/7. One night there is a horrible 'accident' that taints the perfect view of Brooke and she wants to start fresh. She has stopped going to parties and has been living the straight and narrow. She is waiting to hear if she got into her dream school Yale and when she does her best friend Jena talks her into going to a party to celebrate. The problem is, someone is out for revenge over the supposed accident that happened the previous summer.

This book was exciting and fun and I couldn't wait to see who was trying to get revenge. I listened to this book on audio and definitely think that helped impact the experience in a good way. The narrator - Justis Bolding - did an amazing job. I loved the bouncing back and forth between Now and Then (the accident).

There are definitely a lot of twists in this book and some I did not see coming. The ending was definitely wrapped up nicely and I was happy with the ending. While this book is definitely more on the YA side, which I don't normally like, I enjoyed this book and would recommend it.

Read if you like:
-Dual now and then chapters
-Unhinged characters
-YA suspense
-Good atmosphere and tension
-Plot twists

This book was not bad. I definitely liked Megan Lally's first book better (That's Not My Name). This book was interesting and it did keep me engaged, but it just fell flat for me, 3,5 stars for me! (rounded to 4 stars on here!)
