I love solving something correctly to boost my ego a bit, while also having to scrape my jaw off the floor at times it’s the perfect combination! There must be some kind of magic in this book, because how in the world can you write 400 pages in the same setting, over just 8 hours, and somehow make it a page turner? A risk was taken, and the payoff was amazing! I think the secret and at least one of the reveals was a bit obvious, but I was shocked by the other plot twists and the balance between the two was incredibly enjoyable. Could I be the victim of a sudden paper allergy? Was someone cutting onions nearby? Either way, ‘Five Survive’ had me hooked to the page and more invested than I ever consciously realized. I’m not sure what exactly I was expecting from this YA thriller, but having tears stream down my face towards the end was NOT on my agenda.
