The Mystery, Crime, and Thriller Group discussion

Hi, all.

Here's a (spoiler) thread for discussing Five Survive by Holly Jackson. The discussion will be lead by Gracie.

Enjoy!

I just received my copy and I’m looking forward to our discussion.

The book is fantastic I hope you all enjoy it as much as I did.

Great book, the ending was not something I saw coming.

Okay, so I'm in. I've had the copy long back.
Heard a lot about this book from some friends but never picked up.
New author for me.

Happy reading.

I thought this book was really slow for the majority of it. The book is told from the main character who lives so much in her head (and the loss/trauma of her mother-a Police Captain's death) that she is barely able to follow what is happening during the whole trip.

The author wrapped up all the connections between the 6 travelers trapped in the RV, revealing the "secret" held by not one but actually two of the kids in the RV. I felt the last 3 chapters were the best of the entire book.

What a great choice! I've just finished listening and have given it 5*s!

Good book! I did think there would be more of a shocking revelation to the character following them around.

Despite that it was slightly nuts, I thought it was engaging and exciting.
