Reggie
Day Four: A Novel | Sarah Lotz

Pickpick

I came back from my last break and a coworker asked me if I was okay cause I looked tired. I replied that I‘m at the point where I think everyone in my book is about to die. The 3 of us in our little room all laughed at the same time. lol. I loved this book. On the 4th day of a cruise, the engines blow up, the stabilizers fail, there is a murderer loose on the ship, there is the norovirus starting to spread, and a medium-psychic who has 👇🏼

Reggie started to stop faking it. It was claustrophobic, creepy, and eff all the people on Goodreads, and there are a lot of them , that said she threw away the whole book at the end, cause I loved the Twilight Zone double, triple down ending in here. Pick! (edited) 2mo
batsy And now you've got me to add this to the list. Fab review! 2mo
Reggie @batsy you know, Reggie 7 years ago was all about concrete endings, and NOW, I‘m in love with authors who smudge all the answer lines in the end into something not legible. lol, thank you Suba. If you get to it I hope you like it. None of these characters were likable but I hoped for better for them. 2mo

erzascarletbookgasm Hahaha very often you make me curious about the books you‘ve enjoyed. 2mo
Librarybelle Wow! I did not even have this one on my radar, and now I‘m curious. Do you need to read the prequel before this? I noticed this was a follow up to Three. 2mo
LeahBergen And the most terrifying of all is the Norovirus! 🤢 I‘m going to keep an eye out for this one, Reggie! 2mo
Reggie @Lesliereadsalot You know, I‘m amazed at her versatility because The Impossible Us is sci-fi and this was just horror. And looking her up, she has this other one where it‘s just 2 girls who go to Paris coming of age. 2mo
Reggie @erzascarletbookgasm 😁Idk, there‘s something about horror that just grabs me. 2mo
Reggie @Librarybelle it‘s almost 10 years old, maybe that‘s why. And no you don‘t have to read The Three before this one. But I will say alot of people enjoyed The Three way more than this one. I enjoyed both. 2mo
Reggie @LeahBergen also, their toilet system stopped working so they were given red plastic bags to do their business in. The lower deck restrooms were backing up. At one point someone looks overboard and there is this sea of red floating bags. There is a lot going wrong all at once. Hope you like it! 2mo
Librarybelle Good to know! Thanks! 2mo
Lesliereadsalot Excited to read them all! Thanks for a great review. 2mo
LeahBergen @Reggie Oh, Lawdy! 😬 2mo
Bookzombie I would have stacked it if I hadn‘t had it stacked for a while. lol. 2mo
Reggie @Bookzombie I think if I had read it before Trump and Covid I think I would have felt differently but now what we know about people this hits differently. 2mo
vivastory I have to admit that I did not like this one (I loved The Three) but I really liked the ending. 2mo
Reggie @vivastory I loved it because these people are just trying to survive and they don‘t know if they should follow the rules that are the ones we know or to make up new ones. There were so many angles covered. And I was never at ease. 2mo

Wtf is this shit!
It was recommended in a recent article in the Washington Post on vintage mysteries. But it is a firehose of antisemitism, way beyond the norm in a group of books where antisemitism is already a big problem. And when the attention turns for a time to a non-Jew, an admitted thief, they have no qualms about beating the shit out of him. Then it's back to the antisemitism. Pure Fascism!
There are some books I'm ok with not reissuing.

"The magnificent cruise liner Queen Charlotte was about to leave on her maiden voyage from her berth on the Hudson River."

Secrets, false identities, expensive jewelry, and murder on a luxury cruise! Fun so far, can't wait to read more this weekend.
