I really enjoyed Lisa Unger’s Confessions on the 7:45 and Last Girl Ghosted， but Secluded Cabin Sleeps Six was just not at the same level。 The premise of the story is good， but almost all of the characters were really hard to like and the chapters jumping back and forth in time and alternating between the main characters didn’t flow as smoothly as they should have and became difficult to track。 Mako owns a video game company and wants to share his success by inviting his younger sister Hannah an I really enjoyed Lisa Unger’s Confessions on the 7:45 and Last Girl Ghosted， but Secluded Cabin Sleeps Six was just not at the same level。 The premise of the story is good， but almost all of the characters were really hard to like and the chapters jumping back and forth in time and alternating between the main characters didn’t flow as smoothly as they should have and became difficult to track。 Mako owns a video game company and wants to share his success by inviting his younger sister Hannah and her husband Bruce and family friend Cricket and her boyfriend Joshua to join him and his wife Liza for a weekend of relaxation at a secluded luxury cabin with a personal chef。 It all sounds great， but of course everyone has secrets and the weekend becomes a disaster when a terrible storm hits and the power goes out。 The storm isn’t even their biggest problem， there are other dangers lurking that could have deadly consequences。 I really like Lisa Unger’s writing， but this book was disappointing。 Thanks to #netgalley and #parkrow for this ARC in exchange for an honest review。 。。。more

Really enjoyed the audiobook of this thriller！ Six people are vacationing in a cabin together， and things get crazy。 We have the POV of three of the people from the cabin， as well as three other people who are connected to the story。 It wasn't as confusing as it sounds， and it all came together well。 There were two small things about the end that I didn't like， so I'll give it 4。5 stars。 But overall really good！！ Really enjoyed the audiobook of this thriller！ Six people are vacationing in a cabin together， and things get crazy。 We have the POV of three of the people from the cabin， as well as three other people who are connected to the story。 It wasn't as confusing as it sounds， and it all came together well。 There were two small things about the end that I didn't like， so I'll give it 4。5 stars。 But overall really good！！ 。。。more

Yikes。 The way some things were handled in this book left me with a super bad taste in my mouth。 The only thing keeping me from rating it one star are the characters of Henry and Piper; I adored them。 Everyone else？ Absolute loathing。

3。5 stars-ish。 Fine I guess， but pretty overly convoluted， & feels like I’ll forget it completely in a few weeks。 Also not really a locked room mystery？

I was really looking forward to Secluded Cabin Sleeps Six， however I felt like there were way to many characters， most I don't feel really added to the story。 It started out ok but became messy really quick。 Some subjects became quite repetitive。 The "main" characters lacked depth and overall this book just fell flat for me。 One thing you can take from Secluded Cabin Sleeps Six is you really never know people or their intentions， wether it's family or friends。 Thank you to Netgalley and Legend P I was really looking forward to Secluded Cabin Sleeps Six， however I felt like there were way to many characters， most I don't feel really added to the story。 It started out ok but became messy really quick。 Some subjects became quite repetitive。 The "main" characters lacked depth and overall this book just fell flat for me。 One thing you can take from Secluded Cabin Sleeps Six is you really never know people or their intentions， wether it's family or friends。 Thank you to Netgalley and Legend Press for this ARC in exchange for my honest feedback。 。。。more

Kind of a disappointing read。 The premise was interesting， but it took quite a while to even get the plot going， and i spent most of that more interested in Henry’s plot and wanting to know more about it。

In Lisa Unger’s 20th novel， three couples go on a weekend getaway to a remote luxury cabin in the woods。 All are related in some way – siblings， in-laws， and friends。 And every one of them has a secret to hide from the others。 The cabin has a gruesome history and an owner who’s a little too attentive。 Throw in some impending bad weather and someone looking for revenge and it all adds up to a perfect storm。This fast-paced， action-packed locked-room thriller is a great read！ On top of being plenty In Lisa Unger’s 20th novel， three couples go on a weekend getaway to a remote luxury cabin in the woods。 All are related in some way – siblings， in-laws， and friends。 And every one of them has a secret to hide from the others。 The cabin has a gruesome history and an owner who’s a little too attentive。 Throw in some impending bad weather and someone looking for revenge and it all adds up to a perfect storm。This fast-paced， action-packed locked-room thriller is a great read！ On top of being plenty twisty and turny， it’s also incredibly thought provoking。 The use of DNA testing （like 23andMe or Ancestry） as a thriller plot device was really clever and serves as a stark warning that those tests might deliver more than you’ve bargained for。 The moral ambiguity of DNA ancestry testing and what happens to your data are interesting and timely topics， tying into themes of what makes a family and the age-old nature-vs-nurture debate。 The story also considers women’s role in enabling bad men and whether darkness is genetic。 Food for thought and a dark thriller all in one！Many thanks to NetGalley and Legend Press for providing me an advance copy of this book。 。。。more

This is my first Lisa Unger read， and her 20th book！ It's not an uncommon premise， 6 people trapped in a cabin while a thunderstorm reigns down upon them。 How well do you really think you know your brother， husband， and friend？ Not so well in this case。Some of this was predictable， but the DNA testing was very interesting and timely。 As we all know， it's possible now via sites like 23andme， and ancestry to trace your lineage back several generations。 This comes to play here as several characters This is my first Lisa Unger read， and her 20th book！ It's not an uncommon premise， 6 people trapped in a cabin while a thunderstorm reigns down upon them。 How well do you really think you know your brother， husband， and friend？ Not so well in this case。Some of this was predictable， but the DNA testing was very interesting and timely。 As we all know， it's possible now via sites like 23andme， and ancestry to trace your lineage back several generations。 This comes to play here as several characters realize they all have the same sperm donor。 And he's not such a nice guy。There are few likeable characters here。 Mainly Henry， Bruce， and maybe Hannah。 Most don't have a moral compass and are enabled by the people around them to do bad things。 I found the motive for the killer a bit implausible。 How did they become this way？ There was really no back story for this person。 A+ for creepy setting， creepier AirBnB host， and suspense。 Most of the loose ends were wrapped up at the end but I think it would have been more interesting to explore why most of the characters condoned bad behavior and said nothing （fear of reprisal）; as well as more character development around the killer's background。All in all an ok thriller， just not that thrilling。 。。。more

This novel was my first Lisa Unger novel。It was somewhat of a "closed door"， trying to determine all of the secrets of each of the 6 people that are staying at a rural， elegant cabin。 It was kind of like the guest list， but also included some storyline about a DNA company （like 23 and me）。 Honestly， the first 75% were good and really kept me intrigued， but the ending was hurried and seemed like an afterthought。 Some details were kind of very quickly thrown in there to resolve some side stories t This novel was my first Lisa Unger novel。It was somewhat of a "closed door"， trying to determine all of the secrets of each of the 6 people that are staying at a rural， elegant cabin。 It was kind of like the guest list， but also included some storyline about a DNA company （like 23 and me）。 Honestly， the first 75% were good and really kept me intrigued， but the ending was hurried and seemed like an afterthought。 Some details were kind of very quickly thrown in there to resolve some side stories that had been detailed throughout。 3。5✨ for me 。。。more
