Thin Air
by Kellie M. Parker
Thank you so much to Penguin Teen & Razorbill for an advance copy of this!
Thank you to PRH for the complimentary audio!
One plane.
12 contestants.
An overnight flight to Europe.
How many will survive the flight?
The premise of this book drew me in. This was not the first book I read recently where teens were put together in one environment to play a game. I really enjoyed this and was sucked into the who dun it.
I like that this took students from all over and they were forced to trust one another and to work together in order to make it through this flight. There were a lot of characters in this and many times I thought I knew who was the villian (of course I was proven wrong each time). Somehow despite having all these characters we were able to get to know them all and figure out what kind of personality they had. There were moments where you could tell it was a YA book (Emily with her boy crush tendencies) but even still I really enjoyed it.
I thought the pacing of this book was well done but I just imagine being on that flight it felt like it was taking forever. I do not frequent planes often but I was trying so hard to figure out the setup of the plane they were on. Planes with offices and a dining area?!
I paired this with the audio and I thought the narrator Bailey Carr did a great job bringing the youthfulness to Emily and the other teens. Adding the audio made it super bingeable and made me want to keep reading.
If you are into force proximity, locked room with a cast of characters and a game thrown in - check this out!
