4.5 rounded down

A group of strangers traveling together stop at a station in the middle of the windy prairie. The place seems to have it all from the warm baths to the delicious food. Everything seems to be going well until the dinner party turns into an ambush by the hosts and now it’s a fight for survival.

The creepy Adler mansion has red flags written all over it. From the fact it’s in the middle of nowhere with no neighbors or town in sight, to the German housekeepers
who don’t speak English very well, there’s definitely something fishy about the place. This place with its comfortable beds, good food and hot baths has to be too good to be true.

I was surprised when the action started! It was slow going at first and then suddenly the tables turned rather quickly.

Loved Clyde’s character since she’s obviously different than the other characters. You learn more about her as the book goes on and I had my eye on her from the very beginning. Plus, everybody wants her beautiful dress! Her arm brace is pretty badass as well.

Wow what an ending. There is a mini little twist or surprise at the very end too. I liked the flow of the book and the fight scenes. Overall I definitely enjoyed it!

I had so much fun reading Red Station; gory, funny and intense, I sincerely hope that we get to read more books featuring Clyde in the near future. SIDE NOTE: I didn’t realise splatter westerns were a thing, but I think I have new favourite sub-genre.
