⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5
Another McFadden thriller with mixed reviews but I really enjoyed it!! The story did seem to drag a little in the middle but overall a good thriller!😱

The more and more I think about this book. The more i like it.
I was very "meh" about it at first. Too predictable and all of the characters are very unlikeable. But McFadden really weaved some stuff in there that had me revisiting it for a couple days after finishing.
Not like her other books - it wasn't my favorite of hers, but it was certainly done quite well.

This was my least favourite book of Freida McFaddens but I did start and finish it in a day 🤣 I found it felt predictable and some parts felt unnecessary. I still love her as an author tho 😂🥰

3/1/25 read this in less than a week! Enjoyed this book 8/10 suspenseful

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️5/5

She did it again, threw in twists at the end that you don‘t see coming! A little Cathy Bates Misery type craziness. I read this in less than 24 hours. Book #18 in 2025

“It‘s easier if she‘s groggy and pliable. Especially since I have no intention of taking her to the hospital today or tomorrow. Or ever.”

2.5⭐While her books are bingeable, I‘m unsure whether they‘re bingeable enough to make up for all the cringeable…also the unbelievable. I‘ve liked a couple by her & hated one other…looking at you, locked door. Although, I don‘t think I‘ve yet read enough of her books to form a satisfying opinion.
I‘m not a fan of LeslieHoward‘s narration. She might‘ve been okay if she had only been Polly‘s narrator and had other narrators for the different POVs.⬇️

I wasn‘t impressed.

What could have been a decent story disappeared a third way in. Not very likable characters.

If you‘re in the mood for a time-waster read this would be it.

⭐️⭐️ I‘ve heard McFadden rips off ideas, but this is the first one I actually noticed. And I didn‘t care. It wasn‘t full-on nor well-done. The Crash is no Misery. McFadden is certainly no King. But that‘s not my issue. It‘s a dumb story with very rudimentary writing. Recently published, The Boyfriend, showed a larger writing range from her which I enjoyed, but this was not good. Girl is inconsistent AF. My green kindle is cute, tho.

First half I was thinking this is my least favorite so far, the protagonist for whatever reason I did not like. Second half, it‘s up there with my favorites 🤷🏽‍♀️ plot twist

Another book I am going to have to compare to Misery. I think Misery had a lot of inspiration for this book. It took me completely out of the story when she called her baby little tuna. Like out of all the names... or when her baby would talk to her. It was just so out of pocket. I was not surprised or thrilled at all. I thought everything was very obvious. This just wasn't very good 😕 2/5

I‘ve read a lot of Freida McFadden‘s books and have loved every single one. This one, however, was almost a complete dud. I almost DNFd it several times, but I like to finish what I start. The twist at the end is the best part of the book, and that‘s just meh. Read at your own peril.

I'll be honest, I wasn't a big fan of Misery by Stephen King... so I wasn't much of a fan of this book either. It has too much of a Misery vibe to it. If you loved Misery, like tons of people did, you'll most likely enjoy this one. ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

I usually love Freida‘s books but this one was just ok to me. The 2 main characters were ridiculously annoying & it dragged a bit in the middle. Freida always has great twists but this one was kind of predictable & fell a little flat. 3⭐️

4 Stars • Yet another fantastic thriller by McFadden. "The Crash" by Freida McFadden is about Tegan, who's pregnant and trying to escape her problems by driving to her brother's. She crashes in a snowstorm in Maine and gets rescued by a couple. But things get creepy; she suspects they're not good people, leading to a tense, twisty tale of survival and suspicion.

I‘m starting to think Freida McFadden might not be for me. Her stories aren‘t bad, there‘s just ok. I really enjoyed The Boyfriend but the rest have been predictable. This is no different. I kept waiting for the big shocks, and there was one toward the end, but by that point I didn‘t care. I found the main characters annoying and kind of dumb and was kind of disappointed when it was over. Will that keep me from reading more? Probably not 🤣 🌟🌟🌟

Well this story, although easy to follow, went in several directions. I was both entertained and disturbed by some characters and their actions. It‘s a complete ending even though I‘m a bit unsatisfied how things played out for one (no spoiler) of them.

Tegan is eight months pregnant, alone, and desperately wants to put her crumbling life in the rearview mirror. So she hits the road, planning to stay with her brother until she can figure out her next move. But she doesn‘t realize she‘s heading straight into a blizzard.

She never arrives at her destination.

I love Freida, but this one was disappointingly slow. 😿 Not her best.
