the setting of this book was enough for me to pick it up because the entire premise of being stuck in an RV with a sniper outside was interesting but the execution. And I very much enjoyed attempting to solve the case with Pip (who I now want to be my best friend). I've read all four of her books at this point and she always gives me the most complex feelings about the decisions she makes with her books. i got mad at them for not standing up for themselves and i got mad at him too for being so bossy and infuriating.

as for the characters, i don’t have a lot to say about them since i didn’t like any of them so i’ll be quick. Reyna used to be one of my favorites because she seemed nice and fun but then some things were revealed and let's just say, she isn't one of my favorites anymore. I honestly got so freaked out one time that my eyes teared up, which never happens to me, no matter how scared I am while reading. this was such an intense, emotional ride with lots of depth and nuance, and let me tell you: it broke me. I’m not sure what exactly I was expecting from this YA thriller, but having tears stream down my face towards the end was NOT on my agenda.As far as characters go, I thought Red and Oliver in particular were very compelling and well developed; the latter especially was increasingly terrifying as the book went on, and I loved the juxtaposition between the him and the sniper as different kinds of antagonists. In the end, I’m still not exactly sure how I feel about Arthur; Arthur and Red together to be specific.

There wasn't really a romance much in this, but thankfully, I didn't hate it when it was presented, I just felt indifferent towards it. It was full of tension and high emotions from the start, with six young friends on a journey in a campervan being targeted by a killer.We use cookies to personalise content and ads, to provide social media features and to analyse our traffic.

Buried secrets are forced to light in the cramped, claustrophobic setting of the RV, and tensions within the group will reach deadly levels. It's clear from the third GGGTM, Jackson seems to love the idea that teenagers can pull off the perfect murder, but it's just baffling. Simon more so than Maddy, because I feel he had more personality and he made me laugh multiple times.

His arrogance isn't just something that happens on the side, it's glaringly apparent on almost every page which grated every single nerve in my body. Once they begin communicating with the individual holding them hostage, it becomes clear, this person knows them. this curtain was enough for me to want to rip every single curtain in my apartment because of the amount of times that it was mentioned. The secrets, suspense and action pushes you to read the entire book in just one sitting, proving yet again Jackson is the queen of young adult novels.
