What Lies in the Woods by Kate Alice Marshall

dark emotional mysterious sad tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Plot
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? No

5.0

idk if it's really a 5 star thriller or if I'm just emotional because I'm 4 days sober from those fun life ruining opiates but either way, I can't think of any way to improve this one so I suppose it's a 5 star 🤷🏼‍♀️. plus it's beautifully written and the characters are so real you can taste them.
