Rachael’s Review
A year after her aunt’s death, Mira is headed home to spend Christmas with her grief-stricken mom. When her flight is cancelled, Mira decides to hitch a ride with four other strangers from her flight. Yet as they travel through a blizzard, Mira begins to suspect that her fellow travelers are all hiding things. Worse, someone might even be actively trying to sabotage their trip.
If you don’t think about it too much, Five Total Strangers is a great read. In this fast-paced young adult thriller, anything that can go wrong will. The constant twists make for an exciting pageturning read. Unfortunately, once you pause and start to think about the premise in the slightest, the glaring plot holes leave you scratching your head. As long as you are willing to suspend your disbelief, Five Total Strangers is a quick enjoyable read.
Publisher’s Description
She thought being stranded was the worst thing that could happen. She was wrong.
Mira needs to get home for the holidays. Badly. But when an incoming blizzard results in a canceled connecting flight, it looks like she might get stuck at the airport indefinitely.
And then Harper, Mira’s glamorous seatmate from her initial flight, offers her a ride. Harper and her three friends can drop Mira off on their way home. But as they set off, Mira realizes fellow travelers are all total strangers. And every one of them is hiding something.
Soon, roads go from slippery to terrifying. People’s belongings are mysteriously disappearing. Someone in the car is clearly lying, and may even be sabotaging the trip―but why? And can Mira make it home alive, or will this nightmare drive turn fatal?
