Into the Night by Marin Montgomery
5.0
Equal parts thrilling, disturbing and insanely suspenseful, Into the Night is a wild and crazy terrifyingly engrossing vacation story, that literally makes you want to crawl into bed, hide under the covers and never leave the country again! I mean, OK I lie, of course I'm going on vacation again, but remind me never to read a book like this any time close to my departure date!
Blair and Bristol's parents are SUPER crazy overprotective. And it was like pulling teeth getting them to agree to let college student Blair go on Spring Break, but not to where she originally wanted to go (to party), or who she wants to go with (her friends). They finally agree to let her go away on a vacation BUT she has to take her bratty little (16 year old) sister and they have to go where Bristol chooses - which ends up being Hawaii. OK, not so bad.
The trip actually starts off surprisingly well, and they seem to be getting along, even though they have to constantly check in with Mom & Dad. Bristol isn't getting on her nerves as much as she thought she would, and they just might be able to have a little fun together after all. Until Blair wakes up, covered in sand, soaking wet on the beach. Her phone, her shoes, her purse AND her sister are gone. And she has no memory of what happened.
As you can imagine, her parents lose their minds, and the search to find out what happened to Bristol is an insane spiral of investigations and clues, heartache and mystery. The story flips back and forth between two points of view, and several timelines, all pretty sad and disturbing, but intense and riveting to say the least. It makes for a long late night of reading because you won't want to put this book down until you find out what happened!
My first Marin Montgomery book - and definitely will not be my last!
