In this story, four 40-something women go on a white water rafting adventure in backwoods Maine, ostensibly to spend time together and renew their old friendship, but they get more of an adventure than they bargained for.

The pacing is perfect and the action never lets up. The descriptions of the environment kept me in that world the whole time. I was walking around my city pretending I was deep in thick forests. I came seeking escapism, and that's what was delivered!

This reminded me a lot of the film The River Wild with Meryl Streep. The action, pacing, and environment are the same.

Food Pairing: Tuna salad sandwich, an apple, and a granola bar.
