Ten years after the events of Cabin 10, Lo is married with kids and freelancing—but she misses the thrill of her old life. When she’s invited to a lavish Swiss hotel opening hosted by elusive billionaire Marcus Leidmann, she jumps at the chance. Her old magazine wants an interview, and her husband encourages her to go.
But from the moment her flight is mysteriously upgraded, things feel off. Familiar faces from her past reappear—including someone tied to the tragedy that changed everything. This person needs Lo’s help, and saying yes could destroy the peace she’s built.
Fast-paced and gripping, with a thrilling final act. Lo’s choices felt naïve, and one returning character felt unnecessary, but the suspense was irresistible. I was teetering between 2 and 4 stars, so I rounded up to four, simply because the final act had me completely immersed.

Ruth Ware’s Lo is back and she is wasting no time reminding everyone that she makes terrible decisions and seems to always be at the wrong place at the wrong time. A sequel that came ten years after the original book has me realizing how little I remembered of the time aboard the ship but luckily Ware made sure to pepper the early chapters with hints to catch me up!

DNF @ 25%. I even tried to use the audio now that end book has released to help me get through it but both Lo and Carrie are just exhausting and the book isn’t doing anything to hold my attention unfortunately.

It never crossed my mind that there would be a sequel to The Woman in Cabin 10 but I'm so glad Ruth Ware thought otherwise. Ware gives enough of a refresher (helpful since it's been almost 9 years) that I think you could even read this as a standalone. There are plenty of suspects and shady goings-on that this kept me guessing. A classic Ruth Ware thriller, definitely recommend!

I really enjoyed The Woman in Cabin 10, so I was really excited for this next book. While I didn't enjoy it quite as much as the first, I still thought it was fun. And you could tell that a lot of research and effort went into the story. Though there were a few plot holes (plot armor?---no cameras in the hallway, etc.) I could suspend my belief because I was just so compelled by wanting to know what would happen next. I will say that it definitely helps to have re-read TWIC10 because the character was much fresher in my mind and I wouldn't say we necessarily get a great feel for Lo because this is a companion/sequel. Overall, this was fun and I would really love to read a few more in this series---I feel like Lo could get up to some shenanigans given her profession and personality, haha.

Like the heroine of this book, I too have duel English/American citizenship. The research was excellent. It showed how much more difficult it was to go from European countries to England, since England left the European Union. I could relate to the hotel with its updated door locks, but no cameras in the hallway? The suspense drew me in and I enjoyed the book, even though it was not perfect. Definitely helped to have read the Woman in Cabin 10 first.

This book fell a bit flat for me. I have not read The Woman in Cabin 10, so maybe there is plot that I am missing, but I didn't find the book to be as suspenseful as I would of liked (as a fan of thriller.) The book kept my interest, certainly, but I was left empty at the end. Not sure if this book being a sequel was necessary.

Not my favorite from Ruth Ware. The story line seemed a little far fetched for my liking., Lo seemed very naive to me. The book had some suspenseful parts and the ending held my interest.

It was Ruth Ware that got me hooked on thrillers, and I am a huge, huge fan. That’s why it pains me to say that I didn’t really connect with this story. The choices of the main character defied logic for this reader, and I just really struggled with this one. With that said, I will never ever not read Ruth Ware. On to the next…

My thanks to the publisher and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this book.

wish I had reread the first book right before this so I remembered all the characters that came back. I did still enjoy the story however I struggled with some details because it’s been so long since the first book. Still would recommend as a stand alone. Thank you NetGalley for this arc

Ruth Ware is an auto-buy author for me, but her books can really be hit or miss. One that was a big hit for me was THE WOMAN IN CABIN 10! As much as I loved that book and didn't think it needed a sequel, that wasn't going to stop me from reading it!

THE WOMAN IN SUITE 11 brings us back into Lo Blacklock's orbit when she is invited to attend the press opening of a luxury Swiss hotel. Lo is excited to get back into the journalism game after the pandemic and having kids. She is shocked to be reunited with some of the passengers from the traumatic luxury cruise years prior.

I was definitely intrigued in the beginning and flew through the first part. After reading for a bit, I began losing interest as not much was happening. It was too slow and uneventful for me. I didn't find parts of it believable either.

I don't think that beloved books, shows, and movies always need sequels or reboots--they stand on their own and sometimes should be left as is! I think this book was an example of that for me.

Every time I read a Ruth Ware book, I instantly think it should be a movie or a series. She's a phenomenal writer and I felt the same for The Woman In Suite 11 as I have on all of her other books. She is the queen of suspense!

I was really looking forward to this book because I loved the first in the sequel so much. But honestly this one just didn’t do it for me. I thought it was pretty slow and fairly easy to figure out. This isn’t one I’ll remember or recommend. Thank you netgalley for my free review copy.

Ruth Ware is an incredibly special author. She does something with her pulse-pounding thrillers that I haven’t experienced a lot of. They’re fast paced and addicting, but by the end, they resolve so beautifully. She gives the characters a moment of healing and I think it’s so special!

In particular, I think of the ending of One Perfect Couple, and the ending on The Woman in Suite 11. I love Lo so much, so to see her get a moment of peace at the end was amazing

The Woman in Suite 11 takes place 10 years after the events on the Aurora in The Woman in Cabin 10. After the Aurora, Lo wrote a book about her experience, got married, and had two children. With her youngest starting school, she’s starting to explore the idea of getting back into journalism when an invitation arrives inviting her to the opening of a new luxury hotel in Switzerland. Getting an interview with the owner/one of the richest men in Europe could change the trajectory of her career.

Once she’s off, Lo’s excited to get a taste of the luxury travel life again. But nothing ever goes according to plan. There are a few things that are just… too coincidental… when she arrives. People, situations, and positions she’s put into make the hairs on her neck stand up. Is she being paranoid or is that real?

This was one of my most anticipated ARC reads for the year. At times, I was frustrated with Lo's naivety when it came to how she reacted to a lot of things that happened in the book. After what she went through during her time on the Aurora, I expected a lot more self-reflection and growth with how she handled things. That being said, I think it is pretty telling of her willingness to take people at face value and see the good in everyone.

As all Ruth Ware novels, the story was incredibly well written. I never knew what was coming around the next corner and it kept me on the edge of my seat at times. But unfortunately my struggle and annoyance with Lo’s decision making skills did knock some points off for me.

Would I recommend this one to a friend if they enjoyed the first novel? Yes. I’ve already done so and will always pick up a Ruth Ware book without any background necessary.

As always, a big thank you to Gallery Books for gifting me a copy of this novel in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions were my own.

I thoroughly enjoy Rith Ware's books but this series just does not do it for me. In my opinion, it's not even in the same category as her other books. Sorry but just my opinion.

Ten years after the events on the Aurora, Lo finds herself once again in danger as she accepts an invitation to a ritzy hotel in Europe, only to find her old friend Carrie is part of the reason she's there. Fast paced, lots of twists, it will be interesting to see whether there is a third book in the series.

I have loved Ruth Ware since her first book, but The Woman in Cabin 10 is my least favorite of her books. I was skeptical when I heard that she had a sequel to that book, but my misgivings were incorrect.

This book grabbed me from the start and held me in its grips until the very last page. It has beautiful settings, wonderfully flawed characters, lots of twists and turns, and excellent writing.

Synopsis:
When the invitation to attend the press opening of a luxury Swiss hotel—owned by reclusive billionaire Marcus Leidmann—arrives, it’s like the answer to a prayer. Three years after the birth of her youngest child, Lo Blacklock is ready to reestablish her journalism career, but post-pandemic travel journalism is a very different landscape from the one she left ten years ago.

The chateau on the shores of Lake Geneva is everything Lo’s ever dreamed of, and she hopes she can snag an interview with Marcus. Unfortunately, he proves to be even more difficult to pin down than his reputation suggests. When Lo gets a late-night call asking her to come to Marcus’s hotel room, she agrees despite her own misgivings. She’s greeted, however, by a woman claiming to be Marcus’s mistress, and in life-or-death jeopardy.

What follows is a thrilling cat-and-mouse pursuit across Europe, forcing Lo to ask herself just how much she’s willing to sacrifice to save this woman…and if she can even trust her?

Many thanks to NetGalley and Gallery/Scout Press for the advanced digital copy of the book for my honest opinion.

Ruth Ware is a must read author. The books and stories never fail to capture my attention and refuse to let it go until the end. Amazing story

I've read several Ruth Ware books, one of my favorite being "The Women in Cabin 10'. 'The Women in Suite 11' is the sequel that starts ten years after the events of the first book, and we find ourselves in a luxury hotel instead of on a cruise ship. While I felt the first book definitely held that suspense better, this was an enjoyable ride, with a slowly unraveling mystery. Fans of the first book will not be disappointed. Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC.
