This book was amazing! I never got bored with the story line, and once I got to the last 3rd of the book I couldn’t put it down. If you are looking for a quick but entertaining suspense story this is the book for you!

Reviewed on good reads

The cover is totally creepy and intriguing. The first by the author and definitely not the last.

This book had me hooked at the beginning. Loved the twists and turns and had me on the edge of my seat. I will recommend this to other readers along with recommending the author.

Thanks NEtGalley for letting me read and review.

The plot of this book was absolutely great. Fast paces, mind boggling and another crazy villian made this book very entertaining. Rollercoaster of a book. I didn't want to miss anything so I read the book quickly to the end. Never thought the end will be that good.

I found this a depressing book but read to the end of it and only just about managed 3 stars only. Good but just wasn’t right for me

Thank you to Netgalley

One of the issues with thrillers is that they tend to become a bit formulaic, and it’s hard to find one that breaks out of that mold.

“The Other Passenger” by JE Rowney was an exciting play on the hitchhiker trope and I had a hard time putting it down. When I got to the twist, I literally gasped out loud!

This book comes out May 31 and I highly recommend adding it to your TBR pile if you love to curl up with a good psychological thriller.

Thank you to NetGalley for the advanced reader copy.

judged a book by its cover.

The cover is intriguing, eerie, and descriptive. The description instantly drew me in. But after that, it all fell flat.

This was just all too predictable. I knew how it would all come together within 15 minutes. The characters were too flat, and the dual perspectives frustrated me. I normally enjoy that literary style, but the switches here didn’t build up any meaningful suspense, instead it focused too much on past tense.

Loved the concept, but it missed the mark.

This story had me hooked since the beginning! I always make it my mission to try and figure out the ending before I finish the book. I kept going back and forth on who I thought was the culprit but boy was I wrong. I could not put this book down with how much anticipation I had on finding out the truth.

I was a little disappointed at the end with how abruptly it ended. It makes sense but I just wish there was a little more. It might have needed like an extra chapter or two.

Overall, a great book. The cover is amazing! It is what ultimately got my attention because of it’s vibe. It gives very much an ominous feeling throughout that keeps you on your toes.
Thank you to the author, the publisher, and NetGalley for this e-ARC.

The past and present timeline of this book kept me guessing until the end. Some of the plot twists were really well done. The ending is not what I expected. I would recommend reading this book if you want a book to keep you guessing.

Where to start with this book? the premise: two strangers whose lives connect for mysterious reasons. I was definitely excited when I read that! And most of the book kept me interested and wanting to know more about what was going on because it was all so confusing. And here's the problem, at some point it became a little tiring and frustrating to read this dual POV and dual timeline because we kept switching from one thing to another wich affected the pace of the story.
What I liked the most were the main characters; Emma and David, because they were really fleshed out and for that reason it was very interesting to be inside their minds.
That being said, I don't think this book was all that memorable. Still, a quick read that I would recommend if you like the genre.
3.5 stars rounded to 4.

A good story which kept me guessing all the way through. An unusual story as it drip feeds you information about the two main characters all the way through. My thanks to netgalley and the publishers for giving me the opportunity to read this book in return for an honest review.

The Other Passenger kept me on the edge of my seat. I loved it! It was very mysterious with a huge twist that I didn’t see coming. I was in shock (in a good way). It does jump back and forth between characters and timelines, I love when books switch characters, but sometimes the timelines can be confusing. I did not find myself getting confused with this one. If you want edge of your seat suspense, this is the book for you!

This book was a very slow burn for me. I felt the story dragging on and somewhere getting lost. The male main character I found it confusing when he kept calling his daughter Lottie, then Charlotte and going back and forth with that.

The plot looked promising but fell flat on execution.

Emma and David are both running away from something and land up in the same car during a terrific storm on a dark night in a remote area of England. David we know from the outset is upset at being passed over for an award at work that he was sure he was going to get; Emma is trying to find her sister Angeline.

The descriptions of the car ride into the stormy night and of the two strangers in the same car going somewhere, but not knowing exactly where, carries the story. The plot is not complicated but the background stories and the interaction between the two strangers, forty-year- old David and the 21-year-old Emma, also carry the story.

The ending of this psychological thriller came as a surprise. It was well worth reading for the writing as well as for the plot.

Thanks to Little Fox Publishing and Netgalley for this Advanced Readers Copy in place of my honest review of the book (all opinions are my own)

I was looking forward to reading this book, it sounded intriguing and had potential. I have only given this book 3 stars but that is purely down to the last 15% of the book.

The ending was fast paced and I needed to know what happened.

I found the book confusing and repetitive at 25% I was considering just giving up but I continued.

The male character calls his daughter Lottie for the first 4 chapters then switches to Charlotte but then switches in-between constantly, from 1 paragraph to the next.

The story takes place with the perspective of both characters, I understand this and it is a good method but it would repeat the same 10mins.

The Other Passenger is not a bad book by any means. I would recommend others to read it. It is gripping up front, and reads really quickly. I would just advise not to get too invested into any character's storyline too much, and then maybe the ending won't hit as hard.

I was very interested when I read the plot for this ARC. It definitely seemed to have all of the elements for a perfect thriller.
And the book was good. It started off with just the right amount of mystery and suspense that I knew I'd have to finish. However, I found it did slow down, and that the characters weren't developed enough for me personally. I know of some people who would love it and I'll be recommending it to them. For me, though, it was just an enjoyable read, not the kind of thriller that gets me super excited.

The cover and title of this book immediately drew my attention. Then I read the description and I was like sign me up. The premise of two strangers with secrets stuck in a car and the body of a dead woman found being aired on the radio, sounded amazing.

This book was told from both characters POV and past and present leading up to the moment they ended up in the car together. Let me start by saying I LOVE when stories are told like that. Living in the present while figuring out how we got to the point we are.

With all of this being said...I did not like this book. I skimmed through most of the chapters told in past tense because they were boring and I felt like they weren't developed enough. The FMC was flat to me and when the ending was revealed I was like wah-wah. Then the MMC was sooooo whiny throughout the whole book (like tell me one more time how underappreciated you feel in all aspects of your life) and his motives, once they were revealed, made more sense but felt rushed.

In all honesty, I would not have finished this book if I didn't receive the copy for free in order to review it. I stopped and started reading it 5 or 6 times, all while picking other things to read in between. I haven't read any other books from this author so I don't have anything to compare this one to when it comes to their writing, but I don't know if I would pick one up based on this one.

I received a free copy in exchange for an honest review. Thank you to NetGalley and BooksGoSocial for the opportunity.

The novel starts off promisingly but is soon lost. Slow, there's no suspense. The characters are dull and cold. Too bad because the premises were all there.

Thanks to NetGalley for the book

The story started off very interesting but slowly started to die down I was not a fan of the jump time lines with two POV. I feel as though this had great potential to be a 5 with the way it began and the mystery it shared but being that it was a short read I lowered it to 4. Overall great suspense to keep you on edge but gets lost with PoVs.

I liked the premise of the novel. However, narrative pace was slow and I did not engage with the characters.
