An unputdownable thriller with twists and turns the reader won't see coming, from YA talent Kieran Scott.
It's a beautiful, sunny day. Callie Velasquez holds hands with her boyfriend Jeremy as they follow Callie's new BFFs Penelope and Lissa up the trail. The four friends are embarking on a camping trip -- a trip that immediately goes awry. They lose their way on the trail, and encounter a charismatic stranger with questionable motives. And when Callie stumbles upon a dead body, it becomes clear that the danger that lies in the woods is deadlier than she could have ever imagined. Tensions mount and friendships are tested as these teenagers try to survive the most sinister of circumstances.
Why I'm Excited:
I'm such a sucker for these types of stories. The whole cabin-in-the-woods thing gets me every single time. I love it. I'm loving this cover, too. The coloring is spooky and lovely and I really like the font treatment. I haven't read anything by this author before, but I'm definitely keeping my eyes open for this one.

I don't read many books that are like this, but I WANT to. This is the kind of thing that really interests me. Bad things happen in the woods, there's a dead boy--a total thriller. I hope it's good! And CREEPY and all that.

ReplyDeleteOhhh, this definitely looks really really intense and creepy! I LOVE these kind of suspense stories too. It kind of looks like The Killing Woods! I neeeeeds it.
ReplyDeleteI just returned from a backpacking trip with my family, so the timing for this one is perfect. (I would have been a bit leery reading it before the trip). I will have to add this to my TBR list. Great choice!
