MY THOUGHTS
Loved it
After reading the Hush Hush series by Becca Fitzpatrick, and even though those are a bit dark, I was not ready for this super creepy thriller from her. What starts out as a way for Britt and Korbie to have one last hike before the end of the school year, the besties head off to the Tetons. Britt has some unfinished business with Korbie’s brother, Calvin. The two had something going and then Calvin went off to college and the relationship fell apart, Britt still has feelings for him and decides she needs to make him jealous, randomly picks up a guy while getting supplies and now has a fake boyfriend. As they make their way to the cabin a snowstorm hits and they are forced to hike a bit and stumble onto a cabin with two hot guys. All except that the hot guys aren’t what they seem to be. The guys are criminal and not what Britt had in mind as she is forced to bargain with her life to get these two bad elements off the mountain and herself to safety.
Even though the situation is unlikely to happen in real life, the tension and true-to-life teen dialogue makes the whole story viable. You will be sucked into this one quickly and won’t be able to stop until you reach the thirlling conclusion. This is definitely not a book you want to read alone at night. I am not a huge fan of descriptive novels, but this one is so lush and perfectly described that it is easy to imagine being in those mountains. The bad guys are such a mix of good and evil that makes it even more believable. All I can say is wow, and that this is one suspensful read. More, please!
Check out what Becca has to say about her books at a sigining I attended at my local B&N:
Yes, my family enjoys hiking but not heavy duty stuff ;). Thank you.
Yup! It was fun although I can’t barely breathe all the way up we just laughed,took loads of pictures when we got up it’s always fun especially with family and friends XD
I do go hiking on occasion.
I rarely hike, although we walk in the foothills frequently.
I went a lot when I was growing up because we lived right next to a national park, but I haven’t been in a while. It’s one of my favorite things to do though!
Yes, I have been hiking, but it has been a long time and I’m kind of out of shape now. Thanks for having the giveaway.
I have never been hiking. I’ve always kind of wanted to, but never had a person to do it with. Though I do remember going on a school trip when I was in second grade where we went hiking through a trail. It was a pretty day and even though there wasn’t much to see, the calmness and the fun with friends was nice. I’m miss those old days! 😀
We love to go hiking as a family. It’s nice that I live right next to the mountains.
No, I don’t really get the opportunity to go hiking.
Of course, I love hiking through nature in the fresh air on a nice sunny day. Thanks
I love hiking, it’s the climbing that kills me. And in the Rocky Mountains there’s plenty of it.
Yep! My dad and I used to go all the time when we went camping up north.
of course!! I go hiking all the time. I live in Oregon so there are a ton of amazing and beautiful places to hike.
Yes I have been hiking
I have once or twice. I have really bad knees so I only do long straight surfaces.
Yes, but only once because hiking is a pain.
I had to walk 3 miles for church. It was a spacial event thing.
No, I have not.
no
I’ve never been hiking, but it sounds fun. Maybe someday I’ll go. 🙂
Never been hiking, but it is one thing I’d love to try.
Nooo :'( I’ve never been hiking in my life but it looks like so much fun so I really want to try it out 😀
Awesome review! I LOVEEEE Becca Fitzpatrick and I love her books. I’ve heard a lot of good things about this book but u haven’t bought it yet so thank you so much for the giveaway! 😀
I’ve hiked in a lot of the state parks where I live and when I was younger my family traveled in a small RV up along the eastern side from FL up to New Hampshire camping and hiking in the state parks.
YES!!! I loving hiking!!
