A CrimeReads Most Anticipated Book of Summer 2022
"Dizzy and dazzling.” —Riley Sager, New York Times bestselling author of The House across the Lake
An ingenious new high-concept thriller from #1 internationally bestselling author Catherine Ryan Howard (56 Days and The Nothing Man).
Lights
Feeling her stardom fading, struggling soap-actress Adele Rafferty is ready to give up on her dreams when she gets a last-minute offer to play the lead in upcoming horror film Final Draft. Could this be her big break? Will she have redemption for what happened the last time she was on a film set? Adele doesn’t think twice before signing the dotted line.
Camera
Adele quickly makes her way to set, deep into the isolated and wintry woods of West Cork, Ireland, miles away from civilization and cell service.
Action
When real life on set starts to somehow mirror the sinister events portrayed in the script, Adele fears the real horror lies off the page. Isolated and unsure who in the crew she can trust, is there anywhere or any time left to run?

Great book!
I really enjoyed Run Time. I previously listened to Catherine Ryan Howard’s COVID lockdown thriller 56 Days and I knew I wanted to check this one out based on how much I liked it. Run Time did not disappoint. I throughly enjoyed the unique structure of this novel, interspersing sections of screenplay between chapters of regular narrative prose. A truly fresh take on the alternating timelines/POVs I often find tiresome in other books. Although a few minor aspects of the reveal/twist seemed strained to me, I nevertheless enjoyed the story very much. I’ve found that I enjoy listening to Irish crime novels, and other books set in locations removed from my own personal experience, far more that I enjoy reading them with my eyeballs due to the additional layer of detail and immersion added by the narrator. The readers for Run Time do not disappoint, making the Audible edition superior to the print in my personal opinion. I highly recommend Run Time to fans of thrillers and the film industry.

Meta horror, female author and protagonist
I loved this! I’m a huge horror nerd, and I love anything that plays on the final girl trope. I found Adele to be a great protagonist, a working actress with lots of depth and a very believable feminist POV. Her insights into how the Hollywood sausage gets made were spot-on, and I could practically imagine the trailer to the movie she thought she was making. I loved hearing the various Irish accents, all the voice actors were great. Super enjoyable audiobook, it kept me hooked!

It was okay…
Like others have mentioned, I love Catherine Ryan Howard but this was not her best work.

Big CRH fan, but this one didn’t do it for me
Every book by an author might not be equally good as the others, and this, for me, is that book for author Catherine Ryan Howard.
It follows three storylines with many things in common, and all three end up being choppy and forgettable.
Bottom line: If you’re already a CRH fan, read it and see what you think. But if you’re new to CRH as an author, please start with another of her very good catalog of books. She is an excellent writer, and “Run Time” does not do her justice.

Another hit from Catherine Ryan Howard!
I loved this story and the narration.
And while the twists weren’t as dark and twisty as I would have liked, Run Time was thoroughly enjoyable. Howard obviously researched movie-making and screen-writing:
I was curious if she has done either?

Too long
I normally live this author but I literally just wanted this book to end. It really was that boring. 😕 I wasted a credit.

Very Entertaining
The narration was perfect and the storyline was suspenseful and fun. I would recommend this for a long haul drive to keep you awake. My only complaint is that I found the protagonist unlikable and superficial. She had an unapologetic disconnect from the natural environment - which was necessary for the plot to work. However, this didn’t keep me from staying engaged with the story.
