What should be a cozy and fun-filled weekend deep in the English countryside takes a sinister turn in Ruth Ware's suspenseful, compulsive, and darkly twisted psychological thriller.
Leonora, known to some as Lee and others as Nora, is a reclusive crime writer, unwilling to leave her nest of an apartment unless it is absolutely necessary. When a friend she hasn't seen or spoken to in years unexpectedly invites Nora (Lee) to a weekend away in an eerie glass house deep in the English countryside, she reluctantly agrees to make the trip. Forty-eight hours later, she wakes up in a hospital bed injured but alive, with the knowledge that someone is dead. Wondering not "what happened?" but "what have I done?", Nora (Lee) tries to piece together the events of the past weekend. Working to uncover secrets, reveal motives, and find answers, Nora (Lee) must revisit parts of herself that she would much rather leave buried where they belong: in the past.
In the tradition of Paula Hawkins' instant New York Times best seller The Girl on the Train and S. J. Watson's riveting national sensation Before I Go to Sleep, this gripping literary debut from UK novelist Ruth Ware will leave you on the edge of your seat through the very last second.
Includes an excerpt from Ruth Ware's The Lying Game!

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
Depends on the friend. Parts of this book are enjoyable and I'd recommend it for airplane or beach reading. That said, it gets pretty repetitive (a problem I found with Ware's other book, The Girl in Cabin 10) and the main character starts to feel whiney very, very fast. It also wasn't hard, at all, to figure out what was going on and why which made it kind of frustrating.Would you be willing to try another book from Ruth Ware? Why or why not?
In the right mood, yes. Ware's books are simple and fairly fluffy. But sometimes you don't want an epic or a classic, you just want something light and easy. Ware is perfect for that.If this book were a movie would you go see it?
Yes. I actually think this would be more successful as a film than as a book.Enjoyable. Not Amazing.

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?
Yes and no. It was ok. Very intense at moments which was fun but the end felt...obvious. And the main characters obsession over a relationship from 10 years ago (in her teen years) seems odd and sad. I found myself wondering what kind of adult doesn’t either move on or get into therapy. At one point I really thought I had purchased a YA book since most of the drama revolves around high school dating. Not the best thriller I’ve ever read but not the worst either.Would you be willing to try another book from Ruth Ware? Why or why not?
Probably not, I’d worry that the same fault I found in this story would be present in her other books.What about Imogen Church’s performance did you like?
Church did a great job! Very good at distinguishing voices and accents.Did In a Dark, Dark Wood inspire you to do anything?
noAny additional comments?
nice book, nothing terrible about it. Just annoying (due to my frustration with the main character) and the obvious ending.high school drama - YA?

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
ABSOLUTELY! I thought I had who the murderer was completely figured out, but was totally wrong. This is one of those stories that you could read again trying to figure out where the pieces of the puzzle were in the story that you missed the first time. All the characters in the story are beautifully written and extremely relatable!If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?
Because one text can change everything.A Surprising Twist!!
