The Only Survivors by Megan Miranda
2.5
mysterious slow-paced

This was my first book by this author and once again I fell for the overhyped book with a beautiful cover. It takes slow burn to the next level. Nothing really happens in the first half of the book and it drags. There are also so many characters to keep track of that we don’t get to know any of them bar Cass. It made it confusing and I wasn’t emotionally connected to any of them. The main twist was predictable although the final twist was a nice surprising extra. The chapters from the accident that slowly reveal what happened were interesting.
