• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Loveable characters? No

3.0

The book follows are main character Case who goes to visit her friend Drea after telling her to come. Drea has been living in a house with friends from college ever since the huge disaster happened. But when Case arrive, Drea isn’t there and her friends aren’t saying anything. Now it’s up to Case to find out what happened and get out of that house before it’s too late. 

Oh how I wish I liked this book more.  There were bits that I liked but not enough that made me love love the book. We (the readers) get bits and pieces of the back story through out the book. There’s mentions of a disaster but we don’t really learn what it is until almost the end of the book.  Honestly the whole thing felt disjointed and there were moments that were hard to follow. I think my biggest issue is the book isn’t long enough so there’s not enough time to get into it.  

Huge thank you to the publisher for sending me a copy of this book! 

I received a copy of the book in exchange for an honest review
