pickI‘m growing on Sarah Lotz. While listing to another book of hers, I just finished this one. Set from extreme depth to extreme height (caves to Everest), the focus on the psychological/paranormal/trauma of the central characters drew me in. The idea of a shadow, real as a person, but only seen by one. Mind over matter, but the matter of madness extends a hand (even if unwanted).

Trix could not remember this and, given her current interest in historical disasters via the I Survive series, I thought she may enjoy a re-listen. It is an amazing story
pickAnother great story for kids to learn how to read. I love this family. #ISpyBingoJan @TheAromaofBooks
so-soSome young boys on a soccer team in Thailand were stranded in a cave in 2018 while exploring with their coach. The country and people from across the world came together to save them. Obviously, the rescue was incredible and it‘s a wonderful true story, but the book is written in a way that made it drag even though it was short.
pick⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Loved this on audio! The harrowing story of the rescue of 12 boys and their soccer coach from a cave in Thailand. Also learned quite a bit about Thai culture and cave diving and exploration. Highly recommend.
pickSarah Lotz has scared me off of planes and cruise ships and now we can add cave exploring and Mt Everest climbing. Simon, eager to get some hits for his fledgling adrenaline website, decides to go explore a forbidden cave with an unstable older guide. The guide does not come back. Simon does, with more than he bargained for. The first part of the book in these caves had my windpipe choking me while reading what was going on. It was harrowing. 👇🏼
pickThis is a great sequel to Long‘s “The Descent.” It jettisons much of the science and world building of the prior novel for a leaner, provocatively spiritual narrative about a doomed expedition entering the subterranean depths in pursuit of kidnapped children. The whole thing crescendoes in what can only be described as Miltonian Grand Guignol. The frightening, nameless antagonist is quite intriguing, as is his novel means of imprisonment.
