Thank you for the advanced copy in exchange for an honest review. I love Freida McFadden, and have become such a fan of hers. This one had all of her typical twists and turns, and I really enjoyed it. I love that Freida truly keeps you guessing until the end- and usually has a huge plot twist at the end of the book. I enjoyed this one!

I've slowly been reading Freida McFadden's books. This one like all the others i've read had a small twist at the end that makes you question everything that happened even when the book is over. I absolutely love that about her books. This book is told in Claire's POV and an anonymous POV that we get to see who it is at the end. Definitely had me guessing who the bad one was.

Whew! Freida McFadden does it again. This thriller is not for the faint of heart, especially, those who may fear the dark and the woods. From the very beginning it draws you in and has you questioning everything. Who is killing this group off one by one? Will you believe it at the very end?
It is safe to say that Freida McFadden is by far my favorite thriller author. And as always, I look forward to reading more. Thank you to NetGalley and Poison Pen Press for the advanced copy and exchange for my honest review.

that got me so good. my first full length freida McFadden book but certainly not my last. I thought I had it nailed but the plot twists were so good, they hit me like a truck. had me up till 4am reading! can't stop obsessing over this!

Fast paced and kept me engaged. I love a plot twist and the characters Freida creates. Thank you for the ARC

Once again I read another book from Frida and she never fails me with her extraordinary book. I was hook one this book for the beginning to the ending. Definitely wasn't expecting the ending to have an amazing plot twist. I will continue to read all her books. I love it

This was such a wonderful and enjoyable read!!!! I loved this book and highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys this genre. Thank you so much to the publisher and NetGalley for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

As always, Freida did not disappoint with this novel! The suspense and the twists will have you staying up all night to finish it.

I really enjoyed this book! Honestly I feel like Freida can do no wrong! The idea of friends being plucked off one by one is terrifying. The plot twist was good, but I expected it.

This was my first Freida McFadden, but certainly not my last! A pulse-pounding tale of a vacation gone horribly wrong, this for fans of horror and thriller alike. This reminded my of a modern take on Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None, which still remains one of my favorite books. I simply couldn't put this down. As a wife and mother, I also deeply related to Claire. If you haven't given Freida a try, do it!

Freida McFadden does it again! The woman seriously never misses. If you like books with troubled relationships, secrets and murder then this is the book for you!!

I have read several books by Freida over recent months and while I enjoy to plot twist and the vast number of unlikeable characters she creates, these books are all starting to follow a very similar pattern. I am starting to get bored.

I know not everyone is a fan, but I always find Freida's books entertaining. They represent the best of the popcorn thrillers. The books are suspenseful, twisty and quite often most if not all the characters are unlikable and unreliable. But it's the kind of like to hate unlikable. And this one fits totally into that mold.
First there were six in the van when it breaks down. Then there were less. With so few suspects, was I sure I knew the outcome. Of course. Did I? Heck no. LOL But more importantly did I love being proven and wrong and the journey to get there.
If you like twisty suspenseful books and you haven't yet read one of her books, you really need to pick one up.

If I ever say I knew how a Freida McFadden book was going to end just know that it was only because I suspected every single character at one point or another.
I 100% thought I knew how this was going to end at least 5 times throughout this book. I was wrong. So wrong.
This book was like reading a great horror film. Six friends go out to a remote Inn for a week of relaxation. No kids, no responsibilities, just a good time and lots of secrets. One by one they all start dying or disappearing.
This is a super quick and easy read that you could honestly do in one sitting. The pacing was great. I loved the "anonymous" chapters. This might be my favorite Freida McFadden book yet.

I have read several Freida McFadden books at this point and usually I am a little put off by the writing style but the plot and twist make up for it but I was disappointed with this one. Unlikeable characters and predictable and almost boring plot, I had to force myself to finish hoping it would get better,.

A quick beach read (actually lake) that keeps the reader guessing. McFadden uses an old trope but it works well here. Will recommend to customers looking for a light thriller.

3.5⭐️ okay so it was VERY unrealistic however it was a typical fast-paced, read-in-a-day freida thriller so I can’t complain

3.25
Like all the other Freida McFadden books this was very fast paced, engaging, kept me hooked but the ending really let me down I didn't like it.
Throughout most of the book it felt like it was a 4 star or 4.25 but that ending lowered it down to a 3.25.

This was my second book by Freida McFadden and like the first one I read, I was not disappointed! I binged this book in a matter of days because I could not put it down. I read some other reviews and it seems as though lots of people have the opposite opinion that I do - they talk about characters who are not likeable - but I argue that is what is what makes a good writer, someone who can move you (either to like or dislike) the characters. While I agree that Claire was a little repetitive with her musings about her marriage and her love for her children, ultimately I think that is what drives the character to make it back home. Also, the fact that she doesn't really trust her husband adds to the suspense in the story. Thank you to NetGalley and Poisoned Pen Press for allowing me the opportunity to read and review this story.

This book was very underwhelming and the typical through the woods, killing off thriller. I was unimpressed.
