One by One

De: Freida McFadden

Narrado por: Alyson Krawchuk

A night spent sleeping on dirt and leaves is not how Claire Matchett expected to spend her vacation.

She thought this would be a break from the stresses of work and raising her young children. A chance to repair her damaged marriage. A week of hiking and hot tubs with two other couple friends. It sounded like heaven.

Then Claire’s minivan breaks down on a lonely dirt road. With no cell reception, the group has no choice but to hike the rest of the way to their hotel. But it turns out the woods aren’t as easy to navigate as they thought.

Hours later, they are lost. Hopelessly lost.

And as they navigate deeper into the woods, the members of their party are struck down mysteriously one by one. Has a wild animal been hunting them? Or is the hunter one of them?

But as more time passes, one thing becomes clear: Only one of them will return home alive.

Frida has done it again! Another fabulous thriller! This gets ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ stars from me! Can’t wait for another! Great narration as well!! 👍🏻

Wow

I figured out part of it but never would have guess the actual killer! Nail biting

A bit unreal all together

I love all of this author s books . This was my least favorite so far . Not horrible but the story was just a bit unreal .

Entertaining mystery

Took much time to get plot going but nice twists here and there, especially at end. Kept me guessing

Good but a little predictable.

It was pretty easy figuring out who did it. Still a pretty entertaining and fun read. Didn’t care for the little twist at the end though.

Good not great

I enjoyed the book and narration was fine, I just needed a little more thriller!

Twist and fun

Kept me guessing until the end. A fun twisty thriller you can listen to in a day.

Disappointed

Her books never tell you who the killer is. It always ends abruptly, leaving you wondering.

A mystery to unravel…with quirky humor thrown in.

By reading the summary of the book, I thought this would be an intense situation, 6 people stranded in the woods, one by one disappearing. Nope, definitely not a thriller and very little suspense because the situation is so implausible, even for fiction.

The plot of this book is weaker than the character development. I was entertained with the well-written conversations/dialog between characters, and especially with some of the relatable humor of what was going on in Claire’s head. The narration was excellent. Alyson Krawchuk transitions seamlessly between 3 men and 3 women.

The characters all lack a moral compass, none of them the type I could fall in love with or root for, just one demential and extremely emotionless. I just kept listening to figure out who…and why. There were no boring parts and it is a short book, less than 7 hours of listening, which was perfect since the plot is mainly driven by character dialog and not a lot of action.

Did NOT expect that

I swear I really thought I figured it out! Nope! I personally enjoyed reading and listening to this book. I loved it!
