mysterious

4.0
This had such an interesting idea, putting three women in different iconic movie and book situations, but I felt it really struggled with the smaller page count, and the ending was pretty lacklustre. I liked the idea of it so much though that I flew through the pages.
A cosy murder mystery set in a small town, a cabin in the woods slasher horror and a dystopian maze runner fight to the finish is a lot of fit in a 300 page book, and while it didn't quite manage to get it perfect, each story was vividly told, and I quickly connected with each of the three women who find themselves in each place.
The ending was very, very weak and I found myself wishing it wasn't quite so obvious what was happening. There was some funny moments, and I enjoyed the women finally meeting and discovering how they connected, but overall I wish this book was longer, with a very different ending.
