I really feel like Larry's straight forward and confused delivery of Kat's swear and sound effects filled notes is what this channel has always been building towards. We just didn't know it yet.

this lasted only for almost 5 minutes but consider this the best 5 minutes of my week, what a blessing to hear you and larry trash this abomination of a book

[@ughnowwhat6692]

everything about this video was *chef's kiss* but jokes aside, THANK YOU FOR COMING FOR SAGER, so tired of everyone in booktube praising him when he always writes awful female protagonists

[@arfoote1]

As someone who is on the fence about having kids, I find this kind of dad/daughter relationship super inspiring. It's the kind of dynamic I'd love to have with my own child one day.

[@theonlynidnam]

This review is so spot on. Riley Sager is objectively not a good writer and somehow he has all this success???? There are so many other authors who deserve so much more recognition than he gets. Missed you Kat!

[@austinm8334]

I was so excited to get into him last Halloween so I picked up final girls (which as a huge fan of horror movies and especially the final girl trope I was SO excited) and it was terrible 😭

[@Katie-wn1vi]

I feel the same way. None of his books are that good (besides the last time I lied imo) but I can’t stop reading them hoping that they’ll be better

[@Sunzu49]

@@austinm8334 Have you read Grady Hendrix? Readwithcindy gave his 2020 release a positive review, and mentioned how Riley Sager had a one-sided dispute over how they both had books with the words "Final Girl" in the titles (which he soon apologized for 😄).

[@austinm8334]

@@Sunzu49 I have! I watched that video 😭 I forgot what exactly Mr. Riley said but hating on another author for naming their horror-esque book after an extremely popular trope was……a choice 😂

FINALLY someone who doesn’t like riley sager,, i feel like everyone on booktube loves him and i have no idea why

[@murdermythandmayhem]

I enjoyed Home Before Dark but I definitely saw a lot of the tropes and trappings in his writing with that one. Had a good time but had very little interest in reading more.

[@irenephillips1523]

Ugh I know I read lock every door or something like that and I just hated it I don't see what people like about this when there's so much better stuff out there . I don't think I'll be reading any of the others

CAN I JUST RANT 😭(SPOILERS for survive the night) . . This was the f-king DUMBEST book I’ve read all year! The book opens up with her chucking her meds and getting into a car w/ a stranger she didn’t even vet with a killer on the lose??? and granny’s plan was to TORTURE someone into remembering a face that she “saw” IN THE DARK? and then she marries her gaslighting kindapper that she stabbed in the end??? AND SHE HAD SO MANY CHACNES TO ESCAPE !?!!??! 😤I did a whole video on why Home Before Dark was AWESOME …. And I wanted to do the same thing here but I was SO MAD I literally got drunk and did a video shredding it to bits 😭 sorry for the long comment hahah miss you! 💛

[@aftersunfilm]

Before even watching the video I just wanna say I was planning on reading this book lmaooo I really thought I’d finally enjoy a Riley Segar book😭😭

[@paperbackdreams]

yeahhhhh skip this one for sure. i’m probs not the greatest person to give a rec to u, but i have read all of his books and if you’re DYING to try one i think Lock Every Door is the most fun/least infuriating

bruh your point about riley sager writing under a pseudonym and only having badly written female protags has been my thought process since I read lock every door, he's not doing anything new and he's writing female characters badly FOR WHAT???

[@MegaRambit]

Riley Sager gives me a lot of James Patterson vibes. Overhyped. Empty. Trash. I don't read any of their stuff anymore bc it always pisses me off.

[@thisisthelukas]

Just finished the book and it felt like someone slapped me in the face. Sager fridged half of Charlie's family/friends and she is STILL dumber than a camp counselor in a Friday the 13th movie. THIS IS MY FIRST RILEY SAGER BOOK AND I WANT MY TIME BACK.
