Average rating4.1
A story that never tells you more than you need to know. Keeps you asking questions and nothing totally silly. Pretty good.
3.5 stars. Rounded up for the immensely satisfying ending and going in a direction I didn't altogether expect.
I went into this practically blind due to the very vague blurb and title (it gives absolutely nothing away!) and was actually really glad because I was so surprised by how the story played out and what it was about at its core.
I don't want to say what this covers as the story is told in two timelines, present and past where the past jumps forward in stage. It's a really effective way of telling this particular story and I was completely engrossed.
Definitely a page turner and a real surprise as it wasn't even on my radar before I saw it on my audiobook app. The narrator (Stephanie Cannon) was brilliant and recommend the audio for this one.
⭐⭐⭐⭐ – Great cover on this book!
This was a thoroughly entertaining and quick read. I finished it in one day! Great writing. Fast paced. A riveting plot that had me hooked from the first page. All wrapped up in a very satisfying ending. The only tiny negative thing I could say about this one is that, it is maybe a teeny bit far fetched towards the end. Still, that was a really minor issue for me. This definitely gets two solid thumbs up from yours truly!
Well, “[b:The Cabin in the Woods 60370617 The Cabin in the Woods Sarah Alderson https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1650841926l/60370617.SY75.jpg 94816806]” by [a:Sarah Alderson 4573983 Sarah Alderson https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1375235339p2/4573983.jpg] was definitely a good read: Rose is on the run, currently hiding in the eponymous cabin in the woods. The book tells her story in (mostly) alternating chapters, jumping back into her past and again into Rose's present in and around the cabin.“Cabin” is a suspenseful read during which you'll keep guessing what's going to happen (until a certain point...), you'll have to suspend your disbelief a bit and the ending comes rather abruptly but it's an entertaining read.And, at least for me, it had the wonderful “just one more chapter effect” which carries this book to a slightly generous four stars out of five.Blog Facebook Twitter Instagram Pinterest Medium Matrix TumblrCeterum censeo Putin esse delendam
