This group should not have ignored the signs!

Alice was a force to be reckoned with! Now Marissa & her friends knew dang on well they didn’t need to stay at that creepy looking house in the middle of nowhere, yet they ignored the red flags 🚩 that were so evident. This gave all of the signs of a class horror movie and I was here for it! I loved the Cabin in the Woods, secluded eerie vibes that this book gave off.

Damn! This one here... 🤯 Marissa and her odd group of friends were heading on a weeklong vacation. To Iowa of all places! 👀 Although Marissa's bestie Brittany told her that she didn't have a good feeling about this trip, she goes anyway. The whole thing was a ish show! The ride there was full of arguments, and those uneasy feelings continued. The house is nothing like the picture that Kristie sold them on, it is in the middle of nowhere and surrounded by cornfields.

See the normal person would have been like, hell to the naw I'm out! 🤣 I'm not staying here, it looks suspect, something! But noooooo they stay. Even after getting the warnings about Alice, and the basement. 😤😡 It began to rain, and all hell breaks loose! Don't ya'll listen? Close ya damn eyes! 🤬
Uhhh.... well! 🤷🏿‍♀️

Okay! This was creepy asf 🤔😂. I probably shouldn’t have read this late at night, while the hubby was away lol.

This short story follows a group of “friends” who take a trip to Iowa & end up in the middle of nowhere. The only advice, given by a stranger is , when Alice appears, don’t look into her eyes. This was action packed, spooky & the perfect mystery.

Vippur

When it comes to Linette King , I don't even read what the book is about, I just download. I can't recall one book I didn't enjoy from this author. Linette King books are always a winner. Her skills have been touched by God.

Alice

To get someone to face their own fears IN THIS way is bonkers to me! I’m the Brittany of the group cause that’s not what “we” do! When they said Iowa I was like NOPE!!!! lol Marissa kept her calm which is why she survived & i’m happy she did!
