Natalie "Curling up with a Coffee and a Kindle" Rampling's Reviews > Five Strangers

The premise of this was right up my street, and the introduction hooked me immediately!
But then it lost me for a while. To the point I DNF'd it, and then came back to it a few weeks later and tried again. Because I wanted to love it!
This time I managed to finish it, and I'm glad I did, because the ending was great. I think it was a combination of unlikeable characters (surely on purpose, but still hard to root for anyone), several characters with different backgrounds that made it hard to follow at times, and the middle part being a little slower paced.
This made it a rather frustrating read, but a solid thriller. I'm glad many readers enjoyed it too.
