B-A-N-A-N-A-S. Thoroughly enjoyable and frightening. Well done!

1. I can‘t remember, so I guess it‘s been a while. 🤷🏻‍♀️
2. I‘ll take a book a lot of places, but maybe not to an amusement park.

2.5 Hide must be the third or fourth book by Kiersten White that I have read. And while the book is OK, I‘m always left feeling that way by her books. This is her first adult novel. Adults are lured into a game of hide and seek that it turns out to be deadly. This does have fantastic horror elements, which do make sense but still seems to be missing something. This book is on the shorter side, it‘s only 235 pages but is so slow. It feels like it‘s

LibrarianRyan 100 pages more than it is. Most of the time you‘re following the thought process of Mack, and the reader gets inklings of the other 14 players minds and what‘s going on. Overall, the book is depressing. There is one happy character amongst all of them. I suppose I understand that when you have people willing to do anything for $50,000, but it takes some of the will to live out of the story. This story has gotten mixed reviews and mine is one of 4mo
LibrarianRyan them. In general, I like the concept, but it‘s been done better. The book is OK, but like other books I have read by this author I just think eeh. I think the last line of the books sums up the entire story pretty well…”Who the f*** cares?”

This was a fun, suspense horror. Kiersten White, who is an amazing epic YA/teen author, is branching out into adult dark fantasy horror. In Hide, a group of greedy and financially strapped contestants enter a 'hide and seek' contest in an abandoned amusement park for one week for a huge cash prize. The only thing they're not aware of is that they're playing a real game of survival as a feral, evil entity is stalking them. A page turner!

Ahead of us, one of the girls on the bus was telling her friend that she‘d sat near me on the bus—
the cute boy who was in the newspaper.
I smiled. So far, things at school were off to a pretty good start. I sure hoped they‘d stay that way.

Picture it…a decaying theme park with a spotted past now has a new life in the form of a hide & seek competition for 14 adults. They start being found…and disappearing. It‘s a good premise, yes? I agree! The book reads well and the theme park vibe is creepy and unsettling, but then suddenly the story adds on something more…something deeper and semi-unexpected. The 14 hiders are somehow woven into this “game.” A weird little book you should read!

This was a quick, fun mystery about two young boys trying to solve a murder.

The ending isn‘t as strong as the beginning (I‘m finding that to be a theme with so many books lately), but still an overall fun horror read. An adult book but leans more YA, so nothing nightmare inducing happens. It had the potential to be much better.
