Speed Date

Speed date was a short story about Madi who signed up for speed dating. She finds weird things are happening, like older woman being the choices. She sees things and no one believes her, even the police. Did she imagine these things? Read it and let me know what you think.

A great, 30-page read for Valentine’s Day with a uniquely eerie premise. I loved the tension and didn't see the twist coming, which kept me hooked. While the conclusion felt a bit abrupt - leaving me wishing for one final "wow" moment to seal the deal - the storytelling is sharp and fast-paced. If you’re looking for a quick, original thrill that breaks away from traditional holiday tropes, this is a fantastic choice.

“Speed Date” - Reminding me to stay home, wrapped in a blanket and not go out to meet new people.

“Speed Date” by Sara Lea is a dark, thrilling twist on an LGBTQ speed dating event that takes a terrifying turn. Part of the Love You To Death short story collection, this story quickly goes from fun to sinister, delivering suspense, secrets, and a chilling edge that keeps you hooked until the end.

I’m so glad I’m married and don’t need to go a speed dating event! Speed Date by Sara Lea may be exactly how I feel these events actually go. I enjoyed this 30 page read, just as I have enjoyed every book I’ve read so far by this author.

What was thought to be a new exciting experience for Madi to hopefully find that special someone takes a unexpected strange turn of events leaves her with suspicion then romance.. I loved the storyline and the twist though I was not expecting that outcome at all. I liked how the author's writing was still detailed even though it was a very fast pace book. It's a very engaging read and you will not want to put it down till you've read it all!

This was a quick thrilling ride. Poor Madi was just looking for love and had no idea what she was going to discover. I really wish this could have been longer because I was hooked like a fish the whole time.

I received this as an ARC and am voluntarily leaving my honest opinion.
