The Woman in Cabin 10 by Ruth Ware started with a bang... After that I just had to find out what Ruth Ware had in store for me. A thriller set aboard a luxury cruise ship. The main character in the story, Lo Blacklock, a travel journalist who is invited to go aboard the Aurora Borealis to do a story on the new ship for her magazine. Lo thinks a week away on a luxury cruise liner sounds like a dream come true. After all, her apartment was just burgled and since she’s been anxious about it, she’s had trouble sleeping ever since.

It's kinda common plot but it was likable and interesting.

adventurous mysterious tense

Excellent ending. I love Lo’s tenacity and the feminism. It was clear without feeling too heavy-handed. This is a solid book that makes me want to read more from Ruth Ware.
