<p>My Review <br>We are following Caitlin's as she hitchhikers on the roadside back from Italy a summer holiday turned sore picked up by a seeming lovely family she grateful until this turn into longer than a night and she seems to be stuck. <br><br>Your Welcome to STAY .<br><br>This is a slow burn book which keeps you guessing <br>I enjoyed how the epidemic served as a backdrop for the story because it actually happened and cannot be ignored. There is a lot of discussion about how breaching lockdown regulations prevents certain courses of action, but it has always been permissible to do so in an actual emergency. <br><br>Even if she appears to be aware of it while she is acting foolishly, Caitlin's actions are occasionally dumb, but she is still just nineteen. Regardless, I enjoyed her character and the relationship she forges with the girls.<br><br><br><br>The numerous references to hands and folk tunes, as well as the throwaway lines referencing unknown future occurrences, became rather tiresome and seriously detracted from the plot.<br><br>It was a struggle to get to the conclusion because of the plodding plot and the unlikable characters, but it was worthwhile because of the fantastic ending.<br><br></p>
