In a Dark, Dark Wood by Ruth Ware

4.0

Ugh I love Ruth’s books but they always fall just short of being great. There’s always room for one final big twist, and then she just stops. Everything is spelled out, there’s no loose ends or possible conjecture about anything, and she always tells you who the bad guy is pretty up front. I don’t hate that they’re never some person who’s introduced late in the game, I do hate that she never takes that one extra step to really fuck with your head at the end though.
