FTC: I received a free copy of this book from Audiobookworm in exchange for my honest review. I received no other compensation and the opinions expressed in this review are one hundred percent true and my own.

The Girl In Cabin 13 by A.J. Rivers was an exciting book to listen too. Now even though I said that doesn’t mean that I loved everything about the book. I figured out who the killer was pretty quick into the book, which let me down because this book did have quite a few things that I love in books. So many items in this book are rushed, and at times they don’t make much sense. If you listen to this book because you love strong female leads, this isn’t the book for you. I spent a bunch of time wondering how Emma got her job with the FBI and how she hasn’t gotten killed or fired because of all the insane things she does and says throughout the book. I did enjoy the narrator of this book. Her voice seemed like someone I had listened to before. I will, for sure, listen to more books by her because she made me want to listen to this book. As I said before, I did enjoy about half of the book, and if you are looking for a mystery book that isn’t intense and that has a main character who always creates more problems for her self I would listen to this book, but if you get annoyed with idiot characters than I would skip this book.
