It was alright but, I'll probably forget about this soon. Maybe it'll be more compelling if one hasn't read a ton of thrillers. Outdoors girls backpacking trip w a killer also in the woods is my type of book to the t. Maybe that's the problem. It didn't feel high stakes enough for their situation and the narrative felt plodding. The ladies were not lovable characters but also not particularly interesting either. The reveal was not surprising.
