I know that opinion is to each their own but if you’re going to hand me something marketed as a supernatural thriller I would like to be spooked, and I wasn’t. Granted that did help me not get confused on who was speaking but I think I would have preferred to view it through their eyes instead of like a commentary.Īnother thing that I didn’t really like about this book was it wasn’t THAT scary. And maybe that’s what was throwing me off with this book a little was not reading directly from those perspectives themselves, instead it was told to me from their perspective. Or in the case of this book, multiple unreliable narrators as the book was told from multiple perspectives and was also written in third-person. If anyone knows me, you know I love me an unreliable narrator. But then the game starts to become more sinister, people are disappearing everyday and the competitors start to wonder WHAT it is they’re actually hiding from. They have no idea who or how many are seeking them, they just need to be hidden everyday from sun up to sun down. This book unfortunately fell a little flat for me and didn’t give me the thrills and chills I was hoping for.įourteen competitors are playing the ultimate game of hide and seek, spending a week in an abandoned amusement park and hoping they’re not the first one to be found. I have immensely enjoyed Kiersten White’s writing before and I’m a sucker for a horror novel, especially one involving an amusement park. I had higher than high hopes for this book.
