Description

In this suspenseful YA thriller from debut author Marie Hoy-Kenny, four former friends—each with their own dark secret—must team up to solve a murder.

Calista, Zoe, Holly, and Denise were inseparable best friends when they spent their summers together at sleepaway camp. But after an unexplained tragedy forced the camp to close, the girls drifted apart.

Years later, reunited at their beloved camp counselor Violet’s funeral, the four former best friends quickly realize how much they’ve changed over the years. But despite their differences, they agree on one thing—Violet’s so-called accidental death was actually murder.

Unwilling to leave the case unsolved, they set off to uncover the truth—even if it means revealing the dark secrets of their pasts.

But someone wants them to stop investigating, and the anonymous threats keep coming, leaving them suspicious of everyone. 

No one can be trusted, not even the girls from Hush Cabin.

I couldn't put down this book from #NetGalley and #Blackstone Publishing! This young adult mystery weaves together summer camp, memories, and unsolved murders in such a way that keeps the reader guessing page after page. Readers experience both the past and present through four different points of view. Who do you trust? Who do you not trust? Author Marie Hoy Kenny keeps the reader guessing throughout the entire book. Recommend for lovers of mystery, intrigue, suspense, and young adult books.

- Written in First Person
- Alternating POV
- Short chapters
- Past and Present


The book is mysterious and intriguing. It has alternating POV and it’s written in first person. So a group of friends gets to know about Violet’s mysterious death. They all gather for her funeral. Their gathering brings back memories from past and her death seems to have some connection with mysterious disappearance and accidental death of someone. Everything is strange and scattered like a different pieces of puzzle.

To solve the mystery of her death, they must find the missing link intervening past and present. The most unexpected things happens in plot and all of them are in grave danger if it’s a well planned murder, the killer is on loose or what if the killer is one among them? What if their lives will also get tragically cut short just like Violet? The truth is twisted and so unpredictable.

Thank you Author, Publisher and Netgalley

Thank you to Blackstone Publishing and NetGalley for my copy of The Girls from Hush Cabin!

This was a really great YA thriller. I haven't been able to finish any as of the recent as it has been making me cringe but this was one was really well written and plot focused. It was fast paced, story weaving was pretty good, it didn't feel like it dragged on forever. Marie Hoy-Kenny can definitely write an action scene that make your heart pound.

I enjoyed every single character especially Callista. I love how smart she is although I'd probably be annoyed with her in real life. Holly and Zoe were okay characters that I feel like were given issues or situations that were just brushed off at the end. And Denise... Well I just hate her. She's too whiny and just so unlikeable.

This was just so well written and I can't wait to see what's next from the author!

Found at random on netgalley and honestly wasn't sure what to think about this book. I was drawn by the blurb and once i saw i was approved to read this book i was a bit excited because i wasn't sure if i read something by this author before but i went into reading this book with a clear mind. didn't know much about it besides what was said in the blurb. after reading this book i wanted more. it was a good book to read and i couldn't put it down at all
5 star book and i highly recommend this book
already told a few people that they need to read this book and hopefully they do and i might reread this book later on in the year if not this year then next year.
