3.5 Rounded up. This one was definitely a wild ride. I couldn't set it down. The cast was quite insane.
An American family, pays some locals in Australia to get on a ferry to go to an ungoverned island with wild life. When they are involved in a hit and run the locals decide to take justice to their hands and a wild escape story happens. Read this if you want a high pace action packed survival novel!
Thank you Little, Brown and Company and NetGalley for the ARC of this crazy book!

So weird! Not at all engaging, the "protagonists" kill someone innocent in the beginning of the book?

<spoilers> this book was wild. So many twist. I mean talk about a horrible vacation but tbh those kids were the problem. They would have never gone over to the island if those kids werent brats. Like raise ya kids right and you wont have to fight and poison an entire family to save yourself. How crazy was that tho! And smart to think to poison the water with a dead body. She was honestly so smart for a 24 year old. Like i kept forgetting that she was young. Also Tom… i could tell he was toxic from the very begin. Like your wife just died and you got married to a 24 yr old?? TOXIC. good thriller. I feel for that other couple though. They were really at the wrong place wrong time! Anyways good thriller! Quick read <spoilers>

Super annoying characters (ugh, those kids), but the fast pace and overall story redeemed it in the end. It made me miss Australia!
