Meh - I’m quite conflicted about this book, to be honest.
A group of friends have gathered to mourn the unexpected death of one of their own. But finding themselves trapped together for longer than expected on a remote island, they all begin to question each other - and themselves. Everyone has secrets - but what really happened here? And what is going to happen next?
This was just okay - the plot was interesting enough, but several parts felt quite rushed or were just very out of place. Adam and Georgia’s conversation where he ‘figures out’ that Georgie had thoughts of killing Lissa - seriously? That felt completely random. I think it was meant to be a ‘shocking twist’ but it just felt jarring and not in tune with the rest of the story. Similarly the ‘twist’ at the end - Georgie figures it out and that’s that, is it? Again, it just felt quite rushed.
This was okay, but it wasn’t brilliant.
