A LibraryReads Pick

Utterly original and wildly entertaining, Killing Me is a laugh-loud-loud thriller with a protagonist whose life is a total mess.

She escaped a serial killer. Then things got weird.

Amber Jamison can’t believe she’s about to become the latest victim of a serial killer. She’s savvy and street smart, so when she gets pushed into, of all things, a white windowless van, she is more angry than afraid. Things get even weirder when she’s miraculously saved by a mysterious woman . . . who promptly disappears. Who was she? And why is she hunting serial killers?

You’d think escaping one psychopath would be enough, but Amber’s problems are just beginning. Her close call has law enforcement circling a past she’s tried to outrun. She’s forced to flee across the country, ending up at a seedy motel in Las Vegas with a noir-obsessed manager and a sex worker as her unlikely companions . . . and danger right behind. She’s landed in the cross hairs of the world’s most prolific killer, caught up in a deadly game that’s been going on for years. To survive, she is forced to dust off her old playbook and partner with someone she can’t trust. The odds are against her, but sometimes you just have to roll the dice.

Critic reviews

One of BookBub’s Best Mysteries & Thrillers of Spring

One of CrimeReads' Most Ancipated Thrillers of 2023

"Gagnon’s neo-noir thriller hits all the right notes, providing an entertaining, escapist ride."The Washington Post

"This twisty game of cat and mouse is as addictive as the Vegas Strip."—Elle Cosimano, author of Finlay Donovan Is Killing It

“For a little levity, Michelle Gagnon’s suspenseful dark comedy has big Stephanie Plum vibes. . . With their chase taking us to Las Vegas, and picking up various kooky supporting characters on the way, this thriller sounds firmly tongue-in-cheek.”Paste Magazinee

Bright narration

The narrator was great. Kidnapping and killing can be difficult to listen to but this narrator added a brightness to the reading that made this easier to listen to.

What Great Characters!

This book is so much fun! The characters are starkly unique from any other thriller I've read, which was exciting, and I couldn't wait to see what each of them would do next. It was a great introduction to Michelle Gagnon's work for me, and I look forward to reading many more of her books!

It was ok

Started out full throttle. I hate when a book takes forever to get going. Very far fetched. Not very deep, good “girl power” book.

NARRATOR HELPS ELEVATES A MEANDERING PLOT

I liked the book well enough. Started off strong. Tension with humor and wit. Then it started to meander. Going off on tangents and introducing characters that slowed the plot. It felt like a first book in a series. I liked Amber as the lead. But the ending was lackluster and the journey to getting there was sometimes boring. Thankfully the narrator does such a good job that it made me stick with it.

Entertaining

It was a fun listen. A nice distraction. Gets and keeps your attention with the characters and story. Nice comedic thread through out.

Juvenile Writing Cadence

This book made me feel like the audience was meant to be junior high girls….. except for the fact that it talked about prostitution and murder. Weird mix. Not for me. Couldn’t keep my interest.

It was fun

I enjoyed the story, although it felt kinda predictable but over not terrible. it kept me engaged & I was entertained enough to listening to all of it in one sitting.
