Tag, You're It: A totally unputdownable and gripping thriller

By Kerry Wilkinson

It's just a game... that someone would kill for.

When Jessie enters Tag, You're It, she thinks she knows what she's getting into. A sprawling, isolated mansion in beautiful countryside. Twenty contestants, all supposedly strangers. The rules seem simple...

1. Each day, one of you is 'It'.

2. The person who is 'It' must complete a secret task to tag someone else.

3. Whoever ends the day as 'It' is out... and loses the chance to win millions.

But most importantly... Don't. Trust. Anybody.

Jessie is certain friendships are key to getting through, even fake ones. Some people would do anything to win that money. But nobody knows that Jessie has her own secret reasons for playing the game...

Then one of the players is found dead. When the police arrive to ask their questions, how far will Jessie go to hide the truth about her past - and the real reason she's there?

And in the end, is this game really worth killing for?

A totally addictive thriller set around a deadly game in which nothing is as it seems. Perfect for anyone who loves The Traitors, Agatha Christie or Alice Feeney. And remember: Don't. Trust. Anybody...

Great Premise/Poor Pacing

3.5 "Tag You're It" was giving Survivor/Squid Games/Mr. Beast Games. I loved the dual POV of present game vs investigation alluding to what's to come. However, many sections dragged, and the pacing made it difficult to stay fully engaged. The cast is large, and juggling so many characters sometimes made it challenging to keep track of who was who. The final stretch was more satisfying than the middle. I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
