I have tried listening to this and eyeball reading this and it unfortunately just wasn't for me at this time. I couldn't connect to the characters or the narrators.

A journalist who is investigating a string of disappearance goes missing herself. Secrets are relived and you find out who you can trust. I enjoyed it, but not as much as her others.

I was quiet surprised with this book. I haven't read anything by the author but wow. I couldn't out the book down once I started it. I know I am late to the part but I felt it was well written kept my attention and had some twists that I was like well that wasn't what I expected.

I love Megan Miranda's books and this is no different. I was hooked from page one and kept turning the pages until I was done. If you're a thriller reader, I definitely recommend this one.

A great Little read. It was a bit more thrilling than I ever expected. A complicated mystery that will keep the reader thinking. Slow start, but it builds into some thing interesting and thought provoking. Makes you think twice about going to all these little towns where you just wanna hike and being nature and you wonder about the people who live here constantly while yours just here to visit. I’ve had these thoughts in the past and now someone wrote a book about it. I found that really freaky.

I really enjoyed this title. The setting was great and the characters were really well developed. The author did a great job making it hard for the reader to see what was coming next or to know who to suspect. Thank you to netgalley and Scribner for the arc.

Cutter’s Pass is a small town where the locals all stick together, and some visitors disappear without a trace. This is an interesting mystery with plenty of twists, turns and red herrings.

I enjoyed this book and look forward to reading more by this author.

Thank you NetGalley, Megan Miranda and Scribner for this advanced copy.

Megan Miranda can do no wrong, Her books always keep me on the edge of my seat and this one was no exception. Another great one!

In the Last to Vanish, we are given Abby's first person point of view only. She's spent a decade at Cutter's Pass, a hiking area where 7 people have vanished in the past 25 years. Four hikers initially disappeared and then three separate people have followed. Is the area just unlucky? Is there something sinister going on?

Abby works as the Inn where the people that have disappeared and starts investigating the disappearances herself. We all know this is never a good idea...

The book is interesting enough but there are too many loose ends and things that just aren't explained. There are twists (many that are unpredictable) but they just don't make sense with the story. I'm not giving anything away, but there are a lot of things that make you go... huh? Why was this....?

I wanted to keep reading but the ending was a bit unsatisfying.

While I do fear that Megan Miranda's writing has gotten a little formulaic for me -- her books are starting to all blend together a bit -- as I'm reading them, I'm always fully immersed and quickly turning pages, which is usually exactly what I"m looking for when I pick up a Megan Miranda book. Those who are new to Megan Miranda will like this, as well as fans of hers.

I started listening to this on audiobook and the audiobook narrator is not my favorite. But the text itself is engaging- a slow burn until you get
To the end of part one and then to goes quickly and nicely. Another good thriller from Megan Miranda!

Cutters Pass is a hiker's town which has seen its share of bad luck with hikers going missing over the years. Abigail Lovett, the manager of the local inn at the bottom of the mountain knows all too well that the town does not deserve to be blamed for uninformed or reckless tourists. However, when the brother of the last man missing shows up looking for answers Abigail begins asking more questions when the stories don't line up anymore.

Megan Miranda is a wonderful author! Her novels are slow simmering thrillers with plot twists the audience doesn't see coming. She is quickly becoming an "automatic buy" author for me. Thank you to NetGalley, Simon and Schuster, and Mary Sue Ricci Books for the opportunity to read this novel.

I continue to be obsessed with Megan Miranda. Last to Vanish is easily my favorite of her works yet and truly had me on the edge of my seat.

Megan Miranda never fails to keep the pages turning! I highly recommend if you’re looking for a book with a fast moving plot and twist!

This book was just okay. In some places things got a little wordy and were dragging along. I felt like I just kept going in circles with Abby and Trey. There were too many unnecessary characters. I really liked the isolated setting but if just kind of fell flat. With a thriller I don’t really want to have to read over 60% of a book before the story really starts to take off.

This one dragged for me. If I wasn’t fiercely loyal to the author. I probably would have DNF. The ending was fantastic, but it took too long to get there.

The Last to Vanish by Megan Miranda is a thriller about a resort called The Passage Inn that has hosted several people that ended up disappearing. What is the connection to the inn? Abby, manager of the inn, starts looking into the disappearances, and she finds more than she bargained for. This book was pretty slow-paced, but the twists were interesting. Thanks to NetGalley for the free digital review copy. All opinions are my own.
