My Thoughts

I was really excited to read THE GIRL ON THE TRAIN because I had heard so many good things about it, but it wasn’t my cup of tea. I really liked the concept and the story, but I hated the execution.

I thought it was boring. I nearly DNFd it because I was so bored. But, I decided to give it a chance because some of the reviews said it started out slow. However, I kept wondering how people couldn’t put it down. That didn’t happen for me until the last 80 or so pages and even though the story was suspenseful at that point, most of it was due to wanting to finish the book and be done with it. Honestly, the Britishisms were my favorite part.
