Survive the Night

2.5 stars


funnily enough i was thinking that this would've worked better on a movie format because the absurdness of the events seems more acceptable on movies than novels. which is why it's a pleasant surprise when it was all a movie in the end.

still, i just went over most of the novel thinking about how stupid the characters and the events happening is. i feel like i trudged over the chapters until i finished it out of curiosity of how far the author will take the absurdness of the text. they did took it far but not enough for me to think of it as redeemable.

what do i need to sacrifice to actually find a thriller novel that is smartly written instead of finding ones that have plot-twists and characters quicks that seems like a cop-out?
