chantaal 's review for:

In a Dark, Dark Wood by Ruth Ware
3.0

Pretty decent and promising thriller that, for me, fell completely apart in the end due to the main character's overall stubborn stupidity. Like, I was fine with Nora's stubbornness and pride as character traits, but once shit started hitting the fan and she was still being stupid, I couldn't take it. She was dumb, and the ending was dumb, and HOW DIDN'T SHE SEE IT COMING??, and the explanation for why whodunit did it was so lame mostly because NORA WAS SHOCKED BY THE REVEAL. BECAUSE SHE'S SO FREAKIN DUMB.

At least I got to experience Imogen Church's fantastic audiobook narration!
