Somewhat predictable. I mean if one of your characters has face blindness and there are two wives..... I feel like I guessed a fair number of the plot twists on this one. That said it was still a very atmospheric read and very spooky so even though it wasn't a total surprise it was still an enjoyable read.
This was a fun, easy read about a couple with a failing marriage, off on a dramatic holiday. But the creepy factor in the atmosphere was dialed way up. I really enjoyed the way the story was told, because we got some different viewpoints, yet the author didn't retell scenes over from a different perspective. I liked the pacing. I didn't see all the twists coming, and the book was really entertaining, especially with the good laugh at the very end. I'd probably land on 3.5 stars, there's nothing that I would call profound here, but I'm happy to round this one up.
