Syfrix reviewed Five Survive by Holly Jackson
Great "real-time" closed circle mystery
5 stars
I started reading this book as I needed something to read, and my wife recommended it to me. It was better than I expected even! Draws you in quite easily, makes you want to know more, and whilst I was expecting plot twists, I could not have anticipated the story as it unfolded. The few technical details that are in there are pretty factually correct too, which I can appreciate, as many stories neglect that which can be distracting if you know the subject matter. Easy to pick up and an enticing read that I can recommend, and I'm saying that as someone who's long past being a young adult.
