Interesting premise, like that I didn’t know how it would end. The main character and her relationship both with the contestants and with her past relationship were developed in a satisfying way. It’s a little young adult-y but I’m personally not mad about that.

Too many characters. The characters were pretty stereotypical and had little depth. Took a weird turn. Overall, meh.

It’s hard to describe the book other than creepy, tingly, whip-smart, socially relevant, and just damn scary. It’s not about the creepy amusement park. Not really. It’s about the horror of people, capitalism, entitlement, family secrets. …and a little about the amusement park. I mean, it was built for a reason, right?
In the end, I guess, Hide is about the games we play to get through life. Social climbing, social media, the bonds we make with family and friends. The horrific things people will do to get ahead, in life or in a simple game of hide and seek. What would you do for a cash prize? What would you do if you couldn’t afford to lose?
