The Hike by Lucy Clarke
2.0
Fast paced, quick read that i found perfect to pick up between two longer books. This was my first Lucy Clarke book and I did enjoy it, it just didn’t blow me away.
The plot was really well thought out and the characters (although a little annoying) were perfect for the storyline. I just felt a bit meh by the end of it. While the start was intriguing, I felt the middle dragged and became a little repetitive and I think the drug outcome was a bit underwhelming and anticlimactic. I think murder between two friends and then the aftermath/cover up might have been a slightly better ending.
Overall I’m glad I picked it up and I would definitely recommend for a quick read, it just wouldn’t be at the top of my recommendations. It also won’t be my last Lucy Clarke and I’m hoping her other books live up to the hype a bit more for me
