The House in the Pines by Ana Reyes

1.0

I had high hopes for this one since it's Reese's book club pick for this month & it's been popular, but OMG, this was terrible. The whole premise is so ridiculous and made no sense, not even in a fun, what-if kind of way. I'd rather read about fake creatures attacking people than the ridiculousness that this book pretended to explain, using science to explain away the deaths with no basis in reality or any kind of actual science. The story/deaths were also never fully explained & the ending felt rushed and unresolved, very sloppy. This was easy to read but so bad in so many ways.

Thank you to Edelweiss+ for the ARC.
