3.5
The pace is slow. And not in a slowly building dread kind of way, but a spinning its wheels kind of way.
The characters are really good for the most part and have a lot of depth to them. But they don't really have character arcs to speak of.
The rube goldberg machine that led to them being trapped in the car is well thought out.
But almost nothing happens for about half the book. So even though it's very gripping towards the end, it still wastes way too much of your time for my taste.
And the ending is just pointlessly cruel to me. In a way that just isn't satisfying or interesting.
I can see others liking it, but it's just kind of ok in my opinion.
