The Woman in Cabin Ten | 
#Celebrate Day 3: An oceanic #Journey to witness the northern lights turned into a nightmarish near-death experience. A rare case of me enjoying the movie adaptation to the book. Read this as part of my face to face book club who is hosting a netflix watch party instead of discussing the book next week in Dubai. Makes perfect sense, I thought. Book is paired with BJ‘s Dubai chocolate pizzookie and dubai chocolate espresso martini.
pickI really enjoyed this book, it was slightly typical but also had me listening whenever I could to see what happened next. The second book is on hold at the library but I‘m excited to see what it holds 🥰
pickAm I the only person who hasn't read this? Almost definitely. Am I disappointed in myself for not picking it up earlier? Almost definitely.
This was fun and took me in some unexpected directions, which is just want I want in a Ruth Ware book!
#DashingThruDecember Day 24: This Dubai Chocolate pizzookie qualifies as giant #Cookies too (of sorts). Paired with a Dubai chocolate espresso martini. It‘s like our two homes (Bay Area and Dubai) collided today! 🍸
panThis was disappointing. The MC was annoying, and there were too many characters - I didn‘t connect or care about any of them. Too unbelievable. (42)
⭐️: 2/5

I‘m reading this one before I watch. 😉
pick
Watching Woman in Cabin 10 because I started Woman in Suite 11 & realized I didn‘t remember as much as I should… but I also have to read the movie because the baby is asleep 😅
pickEngaging, twisted and suspenseful. Had a similar feel to The Girl on the Train or The Woman in the Window , but it is truly an enjoyable read.
pickThe ending had me like, what how did that happen? (“Tiggers always bounce back!) Though I didn‘t always like Lo and her lack of finesse on a work trip, she wasn‘t wrong with what she saw and heard coming from “cabin 10.”
I cannot wait to watch the Netflix movie after October 10, 2025, starring Keira Knightley!!!
Again I have to go old-school with my current #audiobook and listen to 💿 CDs from the #SHPL library!
Reading this before seeing the #Netflix film of the same name next month 10/10/25, starting Keira Knightley!
Happy National Ice Cream Day! I had a Dilly bar to celebrate today.😄📖 Starting this book next. What‘s your go-to ice cream treat?
pickI initially read this book 6 years ago, but my memory is shot. All I remembered was a woman running around a cruise ship trying to convince people that there had been a murder and everyone treating her like a drama queen. I didn't remember the ending, so it was like reading a new book. 😂
This is a really clever suspense thriller with a relatable protagonist. I am now ready for the new sequel. I love Ruth Ware.

My favorite actress, Keira Knightley, will be starring in the Netflix adaptation of Ruth Ware‘s novel! Set to release Fall 2025. I plan on reading the book and then watching it.
pickThis one has been on my shelf since 2016 & with the upcoming film adaptation & sequel to this 1, I figured I needed to read it! I really enjoyed this one! One of the better of Ware‘s books. There was only 1 part of the book where it stalled for a little bit & I liked the ending so I‘m eager to see why this 1 warranted a sequel. I found Lo a likable character & was satisfied w/the ending. A solid 4 maybe 4.5 stars!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The first book I read this year is The Woman in Cabin 10. I had it on my shelf for a long time and finally decided to read it. I was immediately sucked into the story. With every chapter I was more surprised. I really did not see it coming. Especially not this ending. It was really quite a surprise. However, the story is missing a little something to give it a fifth star.
⬇️
so-soYeah, this was just sort of meh for me. Top heavy with a rushed conclusion. Journalist on a luxury cruise thinks she‘s discovered a murder and then everything goes to hell in a hand basket.
I never imagined I would black out a #bookspinbingo board @TheAromaofBooks
Only one of these was a DNF
AND I read like 70% of Fire & Blood. Suffice to say I have not thought any thoughts all month LMAO 😜
Best books of the month:
The Taken Ones
The Wolf King (it‘s brain 🍬 but was real good)
Woman in Cabin 10
Rough Pages &Werewolf‘s Guide to Seducing a Vampire continued their series in satisfying ways.

This one definitely fits CHILLY NIGHT. On the North Sea. When a storm arises. Beyond cold temperatures. Aurora Borealis. It's Ruth Ware. Love/hate her? A chilly ride either way. 🥶🛥️🥶
Big book to screen news!!
What a fantastic cast!
pickThis was frankly better than I expected. For one thing, I always thought it was like a cabin in the woods 😂😂😂😂
My only gripe, because I don't drink, is that I'm so sick of the narrators of thrillers drinking constantly and the whole book taking place in an alcoholic haze.
I can't lie to myself anymore. I have a cold 😭
My children are with their dad so it's me and these babies and bed, I guess. I'm trying Cabin 10 after reading about the millionth review of it on Litsy this morning - I really hope I like it!
pickBook 20📚 4⭐️
A pretty neat twist with this one! Definitely worth the read.
A dark, dark wood will be my next Ruth Ware!
pickOverall I liked this book but I felt like the second half wasn‘t as good as the first part.
My first book for #52BookClub24
pickThis book kept me guessing of who the suspect is from start to finish! Easy read and un-put-down-able. Lol
panIt‘s a shame because this book was something I looked forward to reading. However, the book ran far too heavily into the realm of unbelievable and I felt myself disconnect from it. It had many holes and sadly just left me unsatisfied. I would love to give a Ruth Ware book another chance and hope to feel differently!
pan⭐️⭐️ This variation on a locked room mystery, and its unreliable narrator, Lo, didn‘t do it for me. I didn‘t care about her, the “woman,” or how the story unfolded. The requisite twist was okay, but the whole story felt totally pointless. I just can‘t suspend that much logic. My first, and last, Ruth Ware. #bookclub
pickI read one book previously by this author and wasn‘t in love with her writing but decided to give her another shot. I was much happier with this book compared to the last so I‘ll probably give more of her books a try. I actually really enjoyed this suspenseful thriller. The “who did it” really shocked me but made perfect sense and I really enjoyed the ending. Well written and methodical. This book will remain in my little library. 📚
pickI absolutely snarfed this book.
The first half was perfection - creepy, tense, shady characters on a luxury cruiseship, Agatha-Christie-meets-Gillian-Flynn energy... I was hooked from the start.
The latter half was OK. Without spoilers, the story became more... contained? And moved more toward domestic noir than whodunit.
A fab thriller.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 4 stars
bailedI made it to 25% and there is still no hint of what the mystery is. A mediocre travel journalist with a messy personal life has her apartment robbed while she is in it, which gives her panic attacks. She is then stuck on the first voyage of a fancy cruise ship for work, full of other desperate journalists and rich boring people. The repartee is not witty. Just not enough here to hold my interest.
"They did that sort of manly half hug thing, where you're too metrosexual for a handshake and not hip enough for a fist bump." I am not sure about this book, but I like the author's funny commentary.
pick4/5⭐
I really enjoyed this mystery/thriller.
Lo is one of the 10 invited guest on the Aurora. While the guest should be enjoy the cruise, one night, Lo heard a scream and a splash, as if a body was thrown in the ocean. Lo decides to investigate but she was warned to 'stop digging'.
pickLast person in the world to read this, i think. Lol. It was good. I figured it out, but it was still suspenseful. 3.5 stars.
This is Ruth Ware‘s second book but the first of hers I read and really enjoyed it.

I finished the tagged book despite my reading slump. I guess I will stick with thrillers and mysteries and give this Mick Herron book a shot.
pickI read 3 books by this author this month for #AuthorAMonth @Soubhiville This book was published in 2016 but I have read a couple of recent thrillers and they are very similar in topics.
Lo works for a travel magazine and she will substitute someone from her job to go in this luxury cruise. Lo has drinking problems and when she reported what she saw, probably a missing person, no one believes her. She is an unreliable witness. ⬇️
My partner is grabbing a beer with friends so I'm curling up on the couch with this book. Hopefully I can get out of my reading slump!
#fridaynightplans #readingslump
bailedNope. Can't do it. I really tried, but I simply can't do it. Reading this type of book makes me anxious and I just don't enjoy it. Maybe someday I'll give it another go, but not today.
