Thank you NetGalley for the ARC of Lisa Unger's Secluded Cabin Sleeps Six.

I definitely was hooked in to this read - the premise of the book was something that grabbed my attention from the get go. I found some parts a little predictable, but overall the twists were great.

In this one basically we have three couples who go to this secluded Cabin in the Woods for a getaway and it turns out that each of these six people has their own secrets, their own things that have either happened in the past or they're dealing with currently. A big storm hits and everything gets a little crazy.

I loved this book. It had lots of twisty suspense and I loved how each of the characters all had very distinct personalities.

This would make a brilliant Book for a book club read purely for the huge number of possible talking topics that you could have to discuss with this one; from DNA, family in general stalking and the me too movement. There is so much stuff in here.

This book has my favorite set up, a locked room mystery with multiple POV's. I really enjoyed the characters and atmosphere in this book. The pacing felt a bit off, sometimes slow and sometimes pushing me to the edge of my seat. Overall it was quite enjoyable read and kept me engaged throughout.

There’s been a lot of hype about this book here lately, so I gave it a try. I felt like the flatline was a bit far-fetched, but that’s not some thing that really bothers me. The author has fantastic character development, to the point that I really hated one of the characters. I feel like authors that can do that are fantastic. I am giving this three stars, because I felt like there was not enough explanation for the owner of the cabin, and I felt like there was a lot of build up with his character in the beginning, but then it fizzled out very quickly, and it left me wanting more from him. In my opinion, it didn’t fit with the rest of the story. This is not a bad read, overall, and it had a great ending.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for this copy.
Secluded Cabin Sleeps Six is a classes locked room mystery.
Many plots and characters and fell short in some areas, seemed rushed at times.
Dark side of DNA testing is an interesting concept to put in a book as we have been seeing some of the cons in the media.

Three couples, one cabin, a weekend to die for.

I am a total sucker for a locked door mystery and this book didn’t disappoint. There were multiple viewpoints that naturally weaved together. This is a great read for a cold winters night to keep you guessing all night long.

I want to thank NetGalley, Lisa Unger and Legend Press for the e-ARC of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are honest, my own and left voluntarily.

This was definitely the type of story you get swept away by. I read it very quickly, and kept trying to parse out what was happening between two story lines. However, the ending felt a little convoluted and dissatisfying. It was a fun read, but not mind blowing as far as thrillers go.

Thanks to NetGalley, the publisher, and the author for this ARC in exchange for my honest review!

The premise and start of this book had me very intrigued. I loved the DNA kit aspect and where that would lead us.

The number of point of views left me a little confused as the book went on and ultimately it didn’t keep me as invested as I had thought it would do.

Overall, I still really enjoyed it as a secluded setting is one of my favorite mystery/thriller tropes.

Thank you NetGalley for the ARC. Quick thriller told from many different points of view. Mako - one of the main characters decides to take some family and friends for a weekend getaway. As it unfolds, do you know your family? DNA tests for origins are taken and some results are quite surprising!

Secluded Cabin Sleeps Six by Lisa Unger

Three Couples rent a luxurious cabin for a secluded vacation. Macko the tech millionaire and his sweet spiritual wife Liza. Macko’s sister Hannah; a new mom and her husband Bruce who works for Macko. Cricket; Hannah best friend and Macko’s ex-girlfriend and her new boyfriend Joshua. When the power lines get cut, each of these individuals have something to hide but someone seems to be stalking them but who are they after?

We read each of the character’s perspectives and they are intriguing and keeps the readers curious. Personally for me, the multiple perspectives took away from the main plotline. The twist wasn’t as believable as I would have hoped and it seemed a little far-fetched. However, I can completely see how others might enjoy this book! So I hope you enjoy it if you haven’t read it yet!

I really enjoyed this thriller! I liked the tie in to DNA match companies and thought how it was incorporated was very unique! I liked that we got so many povs and I liked that we especially got Henry’s plot line. It kept me guessing until the end. I do wish there was a little more creep factor to it because I never really felt scared at any point. Overall, I would definitely recommend this to my followers!

I think the issue with this story is it has great potential and I loved the atmospheric style... It just has too many POVs. There doesn't need to be as many as there are as it just gets muddy and messy. I think this would be good for people who can take that many POvs and really understand it... I just can't.

Secluded Cabin Sleeps Six

What could be more restful, more restorative, than a weekend getaway with family and friends? An isolated luxury cabin in the woods, but what's supposed to be a relaxing getaway soon becomes a living nightmare.

The first 50% of this book was so slow and I was so bored took me a long time to hit that mark as kept putting it down but once I hit 50% it got crazy and I couldn't put it down finished it in a day !

Thank you to Netgalley, Legend Press, and Lisa Unger for an advance copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

There are entirely too many POVs in this story for a reader to keep track of. At one point I was like WHO IS THIS PERSON? I had to go back and reread chapters to remember who is who. Sadly, I just really felt disconnected from this story.

Overall, an underdone read. I may explore some more of this author’s books in the future but not any time soon.

This was a book I was anxiously awaiting, but could not believe the let down I felt. I dont know if it was just me, but it felt like nothing exciting was happening. I guess I just could not bring myself to care about the characters here.

I love a good locked room mystery, but this wasn't a good one.

Three unlikeable couples gather for a weekend in a cabin to complain about a whole lot of nothing. A raging storm is coming, and so is a psychopath out for revenge. A decent though familiar setup devolves into a not-so-thrilling thriller that feels like the author googled a list of recent headlines from the past few years.

There is an interesting subplot about a child named Henry, but this storyline felt more like a distraction to main story that I wasn't enjoying. Lisa Unger should have taken that subplot and fleshed it out into its own novel. I do not recommend this one.

Not the best writing and a messy plot. Unlikable characters. Unfortunately, this wasn't a great read for me.

What a wild mystery! I could not figure this one out nor put it down! Lisa Unger books are always exciting and this is definitely a unique murder mystery story. I honestly wish the story was longer! The back story is SO interesting!!

Thank Netgalley for my copy of this book. My review is my own and unbiased.

Super suspenseful and kept me guessing until the very end. I enjoyed the different character viewpoints and storylines. Would highly recommend!
