A review by crimethrillerbooks
Hostage by Clare Mackintosh

5.0

To say I loved this book would be an understatement, this is one of the best thrillers I have ever read! Wow, just wow!

This book had me reading well in to the night and never wanting to put my book down, I just had to keep reading! I love the plot & the setting of a plane where all of the passengers are in terrible danger, so tense and suspenseful!

Clare has done a phenomenal job with the writing of this book, the story flows well, the atmosphere is built beautifully & all the characters are extremely likeable! I need to read more by this author right now!

Hostage is full of shocking twists, I felt constantly surprised and I never knew what to expect next. Which I absolutely loved! It was so action packed and I didn't find myself bored at any point. I just kept turning the pages and before I knew it, I'd finished!

As for that nail-biting ending, just pure goosebumps, I felt like I was actually there, fully immersed in the characters stories & desperate for their safety.

If you love tense, explosive thrillers, I would highly recommend picking this book up! It has quickly become one of my favourite books! It's definitely a book I'll be recommending a lot for years to come.
