I went Into this one just off of the authors previous book, No Exit, and while this one was good it wasn’t as fast paced as I’d hoped. Adams is a fantastic writer with a knack for action and overall this was an enjoyable read.

Hairpin Bridge has an interesting premise and started strong for me. Unfortunately though it lost me along the way. I found it to be a bit unrealistic with twists that weren't all that surprising.

I am sorry for the inconvenience but I don’t have the time to read this anymore and have lost interest in the concept. I believe that it would benefit your book more if I did not skim your book and write a rushed review. Again, I am sorry for the inconvenience.

After all the rave reviews for Taylor Adams No Exit I had high hopes for this one. Sadly I was let down and really struggled with this book after getting hooked in the beginning. My interest was lost with this story and the characters.

I really enjoyed this thriller. It had me on the edge of my seat the entire time and I thought it was a great read.

Unfortunately, Hairpin Bridge was a big disappointment for me. It felt like the majority of the book was all one big scene that just wouldn't come to an end. The excessive description of each thing that took place was just too much for me and I found myself quite bored with this one. I listened to this one on audio...maybe if I had actually read it, I would have liked it better....but it doubt it.

I have read other books by Taylor Adams so I was excited to read Hairpin Bridge. And while the book started off strong and had me invested it began to fall apart and I just found myself wanting it to end. The story became very unrealistic and predictable. Not a terrible story, but it could have been so much more.

Hairpin Bridge ~ Taylor Adams - Psychological Thriller 🔪🔪🔪🔪
When Lena's estranged twin sister dies by "suicide" Lena heads out to interview the police officer who found Cambry's body. But the more Lena learns the more twisted the story becomes and who can Lena trust???
This twisted plotline will have you chasing your tail trying to solve the what really happened. Corporal Raymond Raycevic is all too keen to help Lena with the last hours of her sister's life. But the story isn't adding up. The 911 calls, the cell dead zone, the suicide text, Please Forgive Me. Lena's search for the truth turns into a fight for her own survival. I'm always fascinated by a story involving twins and their bonds and connections. I think this played out well in the story. It was a solid 4 stars for me.

Lena Nguyen heads to a small town in Montana to investigate the suicide of her twin sister, whom she just knows did not intentionally kill herself. The police say that Cambry Nguyen jumped 200 feet to her death off of Hairpin Bridge. Lena begins by interviewing the very patrolman who discovered her sister's body, Corporal Raymond Raycevic. She soon learns that his story isn't adding up. First, she learns he stopped Cambry for speeding a full hour before she leapt to her death. What happened in that time frame? As Lena uncovers more secrets, she soon learns that no one is who they say they are, and soon she is caught in a deadly game of cat and mouse, one in which Lena could end up exactly like her twin sister.

This book started out strong and then fell off around half-way through when things because a bit repetitive and boring. There was a little twist at the ending which I enjoyed, but a lot of the book was predictable. I did enjoy how most of it took place within a few hours time frame on Hairpin Bridge, hence the name of the book. There were some really tense moments and overall I would say this is an average thriller.

Special thank you to Netgalley and the published for this advanced reader copy in exchange for an honest review.

Gripping, couldn't put it down. This was one of those books I had to stay up late to finish because I was so invested in the main character's fate. Excellent thriller!

Way too violent, graphic, and predictable. The female protagonist felt very stereotypical. After reading No Exit and now this book, I have found that I do not enjoy reading books by Taylor Adams.

Lena’s identical twin sister Cambry killed herself (allegedly) by driving off the Hairpin Bridge in Montana. Lena travels to the scene to find out what happened.
She meets the local policeman (HP) Raymond Raycevic, mentioned in her sister’s last message to uncover what really happened. Only one way things can go from here.
Told from different POV - the reader has to decide which one is true
If you like lots of twists and turns then this is the book for you. Just too many for me.
3 Stars ⭐️

I loved No Exit by this author and was so excited to try another book by Taylor Adams. Unfortunately, this one didn't grab me and keep me turning the pages like No Exit. I'm not a fan of multiple narrators and I feel that this made it difficult to determine whose perspective was being told. Overall, the twists weren't as surprising as I had hoped.

This book had a lot of twists and turns and kept me guessing until the end. It was a bit unrealistic but I enjoyed it regardless.

This one was fine. Definitely not as good as No Exit. I was glued to that one. If you like thrillers it’s worth your time.

Thank you to the publisher and author for giving access to Hairpin Bridge as an early Read Now access. On the surface, the novel starts in a promising fashion. We meet Lena Nyguen who loses her sister in a tragic manner and is searching for answers. Then, we see a showdown between her and the officer, Raymond Raycevuc, whom she believes is responsible for her death. The novel, however, felt long to me. While the author made interesting moments throughout the novel, I was often left confused and bewildered by the events that were taking place. While I have not read the author's No Exit yet, I had higher expectations for this novel given the buzz it had created but was disappointed in the way the plot was executed. I, think, overall the genre of thrillers are difficult to pull off for many authors. I think Adam's struggled to create a believable world that could be felt with the interesting plot that he had imagined in the novel. I am sure his next book will be amazing as I have heard amazing things about No Exit, which was also a book of the month pick!

i requested this to see if maybe this one will be better than no exit (one of my least favorite books) but after reading friends reviews (who loved no exit) and they didn't care for this one, i'm not gonna chance it. thank you for the opportunity.

This book was just as good as his first novel, full of suspense and lots of twists and turns. I know a lot of people have problems with this books but I honestly really enjoy them, they keep me entertained and the plot twists really do get to me.

Lena's estranged twin sister drove to a bridge in the middle of nowhere and jumped two hundred feet to her death. But Lena doesn't believe that so she has driven to that very bridge to find out what really happened by interviewing the highway patrolman who supposedly found her sister's body. But Lena is confused, he seems like such a nice guy but there's one problem, his story isn't adding up. And he can't explain why there were sixteen attempted 911 calls from her cell phone before she jumped and why in her last text to Lena he's mentioned by name in it.

This tale of revenge was so fast paced and action packed my heart was pounding the whole time I was reading it which is pretty common for me when reading books by this author. My hair was standing on end at certain points and I'm pretty sure I annoyed everyone around me with all of the gasping I was doing. It's highly entertaining, dark, twisted, and is basically like a ride on a roller coaster. I could not put this book down and I wish I could read it again for the first time to feel all the feelings again.

*Many thanks to William Morrow for the gifted copy for my honest review!*

I really enjoyed this book and how the story unfolded. I feel I would definitely recommend this book to people who enjoy thrillers.

While on a road trip, Cambry, Lena Nguyen’s sister, jumped off a bridge and died. Lena though is not convinced this is the real story. There are a couple of strange things happening: the state trooper who found Cambry’s body was mentioned by name by Cambry on her final text message to Lena. On top of that, Cambry had been stopped by him earlier and after, Cambry was trying to call 911 repeatedly. Lena will do anything to figure out what happened.

The book started strong and it’s definitely intense throughout it but the point of views was hard for me. The story alternates between the sisters but the writing is similarly enough that sometimes it’s confusing. There were a couple of surprising moments by the end that I really enjoyed. It is an enjoyable read but I think “No Exit” is still Adam’s home run.

Thank you NetGalley and the publisher, William Morrow, for the ARC.
