pickYour basic disaster story. A plane goes down in the ocean, trapping some survivors 200 feet under water. A rescue plan gets underway. Plenty of cliches and dramatic moments. Would probably be good as a movie. Entertaining enough.
I‘m at a work retreat this week and decided to bail early after dinner to curl up in my Airbnb with this book and a cup of tea. 📚☕️🤫

pickI have yet to read a Blake Crouch novel that I don't like. Like his other novels, Run is well written and shows great insight into the human condition and human behavior. I described Run to my husband as "Kind of like The Walking Dead, but without the dead." Run focuses on what a family has to do to survive when (living) humans are the thing to be feared.
so-soAs amazing as the show (Killing Eve) based on this book is, the book is quite dull in comparison. It's really great to see how the makers of the show turned a not-so-great book into a totally binge-worthy show.
I am definitely gonna continue watching the show, but not the books.
Show - 5/5🌟
Book - 3/5🌟
pickGreat read! I enjoyed this one more than the first 2 for the majority of it. It was hard to put down. However, I didn‘t find the twists quite so twisty. I think if you thought hard enough and already know Freida‘s style, you could have guessed. Some details didn‘t lead anywhere, and I wished there was more of the active scene once you find out the truth. However, I loved seeing Millie‘s family life. Also, Enzo is lucky Millie isn‘t Latina 😂.
pickTrigger warning: all the triggers. Name one, it's in there. As the title states it's really, really dark (I don't know what the German cover should express, tbh). Lehane is working on his characters in this one, sharpening them. But not only the human ones, but also the city all his books are set in: Boston. It's a strong book, well plotted and even if I might forget the story itself I won't forget all the feelings connected to it.

1. In many things yes; I like to control the flow and know what to expect. Sometimes plans implode and make for a good time!!
2. Be ready when the Luck Happens, the Ina Garten memoir pretty much is about plans going to the wayside, and her biz turned out pretty amazing! “How easy is that?!”

pickThis story sucks you in quickly and spits you out at the end of the wild ride. The characters are distinctly different, and their backstories are well defined. I guessed a few things and thought I figured out more but was turned around a few times and surprised till the very end.
