Five Survive by Holly Jackson
4.0

I have to admit, I did see a lot of the plot twists coming. Pattern recognition really sucks sometimes.

But regardless, I enjoyed the book. I also hold Holly Jackson in high regard because she does not manipulate the reader or lies to them just to gain a surprise effect - I hate when writers do that. No, she leaves it all out in the open and it is for me to put the pieces together or not. I like that.

A very good YA thriller, lots of suspense. Can recommend. In the end I shed a few tears, too.
