Five Survive

Thank you, NetGalley, for this book.

This standalone book by the author of the Good Girl’s Guide to Murder series follows six teenage friends trapped in an RV by a sniper. One of them has a secret. When that secret is revealed, that person will be killed, and the rest can leave.

But it turns out they all have secrets, so knowing which one is worth being killed over is a mystery. The hostages slowly reveal their issues, but also try to come up with escape plans. As those secrets are revealed, unexpected betrayals are exposed.

This book was good, but I was hoping for more. There were just too many convenient plot points rather than events unfolding in a unique or organic way. But most young adults (the target audience) will probably love this one.
