No Exit: A Novel | 
pickGood as reviews said. I think when I stop at rest areas from now on, I'll definitely be wondering about fellow travelers and what they have hid in their autos😂

so-soQuite disappointing. While I can get behind the main character, a woman with stellar survival instincts, the writing style had me rolling my eyes a bit too often. It felt like it was trying to be cinematic (lots of dramatic pauses, cuts to black, etc.), but didn‘t quite get there.
You should definitely read this one during a snow ❄️ storm!! 🥶💙🤍

Have you noticed the price increase from 149.99 in October 2021 to today!! $179.75!! That‘s a big difference! Well , since they already took my money I‘ll stay in for now, but when I use up my credits I‘m done!! You can buy #BOTM books everyday online!
pickA cinematic, fun ride all the way through. It was more gruesome than I expected (not complaining) so it felt almost like a slasher at some points. I'll probably check out the movie adaptation at some point.

pickDriving through the Colorado Rockies, Darby gets caught in a blizzard and has to hunker down in a roadside visitors center with 4 other stranded travelers. While outside she discovers a little girl caged in the back of a van. Who kidnapped her, and how is she going to save her?
OMFG you guys, this is the best thriller I've ever read!! I had anxiety from start to finish. This is going to be one of my best reads for 2023 for sure.
This is one book that I would like to read again!! Such a great thriller! I was definitely on the edge of my seat with every page! I don‘t say that often lol 😂
* four strangers, a blizzard, a kidnapped child, and a determined young woman desperate to outwit a psychopath!!

pickThis was a good thriller, at least I enjoyed it but it is so violent. It has triggers some of them more graphic, kidnapping, violent death, intention to commit minor sexual abuse. It was good, one of those that put you at the edge of your seat😳Unexpected/confused ending at least for me. But then I read some reviews and understood it.

pickI finally got to “read” this book and I adored it. So much suspense and had plenty of twists and turns and I really liked the main character although I wish there had been a bit more on her backstory.
I feel so spoiled today opening all these packages! Thank you so much @LeslieO for the #SliceofSummerSwap
The book looks great! Is it wrong to be so excited about napkins? I love them!
pickWow I really loved this one! Very fast paced and keeps you guessing. The suspense was excellent and lasted the whole book. This was just a really fun read. Side note: I watched the movie after and the movie sucked compared to the book. I mean not totally but I‘d only give the movie a 3.

pickI started out iffy on this one, some of the MCs decisions were… interesting. But she grew on me. Lots of action, gore and twists.
Darby is traveling home on Christmas break, last minute to see her ailing mother, the snowy conditions force her to stop at a rest area where she discovers that there‘s a kidnapped young girl in the back of a van. With no cell signal, or way to get help. Who can she trust? And how can they survive until help arrives?
I don‘t really get the premise of this book…
If I see a kidnapped child in a van, outside, while we are getting snowed in, so the child is out there in freezing conditions. The extent of my investigation is going to be 🏏🏏 Excuse meeeee whose van is thaaaaat 👊🥊🔪🔪
There are other people there who are also not kidnappers…

96) Y‘all I didn‘t write the authors down when I made this list… I am assuming this is the No Exit I meant 🤣
pickThis was an INTENSE read. I will not say more. I will not spoil it for you. Wow.
pickOutstanding. What a rollercoaster of a book. Wow. This had me completely gripped for the whole book. Great characters, sooo many twists and turns and a plot that just screamed horror movie. Loved it ❤️
pickAbsolutely loved this book! I had a few nights where I didn‘t get much sleep because it was so hard to put down! Now I can‘t wait to watch the movie
pickWhy did I wait so long to read this book?! I wanted to read it before I watched the movie so I was glad it was on my BOTM shelf! It was a crazy thrill ride the entire time! It was definitely one of my favorite books I‘ve read so far this year.
so-so⭐️⭐️ ½ • Read before watching the Hulu movie. Not a literary masterpiece by any means, but a welcome distraction for me right now. A bonkers throwaway thriller that makes for a quick read. (Warning: It does get quite violent and gory.)
pickAn enjoyable, fast-paced thriller. My husband recently watched the Hulu movie which caused me to bump this up in my TBR pile so we could discuss. Really enjoyed the strong female character.
I did not know this was being adapted!! Will have to watch this weekend.
A film adaptation of this book is coming to Hulu in a few weeks! https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=GFvupyiNEz0&gclid=Cj0KCQiA0eOPBhCGARIsAFIwTs7uch_u... Now I need to get Hulu. 😕
pickSuper tense thriller that may trigger some, but it was a breathtakingly fun ride!
bailed⭐️. I cannot even with this book! Awful writing, stupid characters, figured it all out at 30%!
pickThis was a great thriller that kept me on the edge of my seat especially those last 100 pages! It was slow in the beginning but once it picked up it got so good! 4/5 stars. book 2/52 #52booksayearchallenge
1) I loved No Exit and it makes me cold every time I think about it! 💙❄️🤍🥶

pickSuper suspenseful thriller. And the characters are stranded at a rest stop in a snow storm 2 days before Christmas. If that sounds like your jam, definitely give it a go.

What would you do? Would you save the girl or pretend you didn‘t see anything? Someone you just met has done something horribly wrong. Who can you trust? What can you do? Make the wrong choice & you may end up in that crate with her. Make the right choice & you could be a hero. So I ask again, what would you do?

pickThis fast moving thriller reads like a movie. A woman gets stuck in a highway rest stop during a blizzard in the Rocky Mountains. She discovers one of the people she is stuck with, has abducted a child and is determined to save that child. Entertaining yet forgettable! Between a so-so and a pick.
