But these gals were dimwits and (sorry not sorry for spoiling things), you cannot (a) run away from danger on a broken leg or (b) pull your very-not-athletic self out of a giant hole you are trapped in once your hand has been blown off. Īfter loving both the print and film versions of There’s Someone In Your House I was soooooooo prepared for a slashy good time. In the immortal words of Charles Barkley, simply put this was. I even got a hardback version rather than my usual Kindle preference so I would make sure I really sank in on the sofa the first rainy Saturday that came along in order to fully immerse myself in the experience. After being denied an ARC I made sure I was the first in line for a library copy. After loving both the print and film versions of There’s The Woods Are Always Watching was my MUST READ for October. And then? In the immortal words of Charles Barkley, simply put this was. The Woods Are Always Watching was my MUST READ for October. I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book, all opinions are my own. I just cannot recommend this book, it didn't give me the creepy vibes I was hoping for, it didn't scare me at all. So many of the tropes with the villains, the girls, and their situation are cliched and overdone. There is a requisite semi-HEA and it is not believable at all. They are both totally unlikable and I can't even figure out why they are friends or doing this hike.Ħ. The entire first 100 pages consists of bickering, whining, arguing, bickering, and more whining. Josie is a blah character with no background.ĥ. But it is so brief and never explored fully. We briefly get introduced to Neena's background and her motivation for going away to college and her parents' sacrifices for their family. I'm not sure why the GR data says it is 304 pages, it is 216 pages. The book is way too short and there is just no development of the plot, the characters, or anything. No motivation or back story is ever given for the villains. Josie would have died from shock if this was a real life situation.ģ. When something does happen, it is so unbelievable that I was rolling my eyes. Shades of Wild: From Lost to Found on the Pacific Crest Trail, but only in the fact that they are doing something they have no business doing.Ģ. These girls have never ever been hiking before, and they set off to an unknown place and are ill-prepared for the rigor of the hike. Nothing much happens in this book for 100 pages. The Not-So-Good: Pretty much everything else.ġ. Two friends who want to go on an adventure together before they go their separate ways for college. Interesting characters, especially Neena, whose parents emigrated to the US from India. However, I was very disappointed because this book failed to deliver. I was very excited to read this one because I've read other things by this author and those books have been really wonderful. The Not-So-Good: Pretty much everything else.
