How Bad Things Can Get
by Darcy Coates
challenging
dark
slow-paced
Thank you to NetGalley and Poisoned Pen Press for the opportunity to read How Bad things Can Get by Darcy Coates.
A week of paradise on isolated island with friends, games, drinking and beautiful beaches… what can go wrong? Except for the haunting past of the island, known for unspeakable tragedy.
I felt the author is trying to do too much here. If we just followed Ruth or focused on this story at a distance, it would have been more impactful. I appreciated the creepy vibes and the, “what was that” moments. However, due to so much going on, the scene would change and remove me from the story.
T.W. There is body horror
