Before the Fall | Noah Hawley

A private jet with eleven passengers takes off from Martha's Vineyard on its way to New York. Sixteen minutes later, it crashes into the ocean. The only survivors are Scott, the artist who was invited along at the last minute because he was meeting with art galleries in NY, and JJ, the 4 year old son of one of the wealthy couples on the plane. ⬇️

CoffeeNBooks This tells their story, as well as the stories of the rest of the passengers on the plane, as the authorities try to determine what happened on the flight.

#ReadAway2024

Read for #SundayBuddyRead, it‘s a very soft pick from me—too much YA angst & too many characters to keep track of, but I think the concept of different YA authors creating the interlocking stories was good. Some of the characters & stories sparkled more than others, but it was a good pick for a light December read & if I was the intended YA target looking for diversity & representation in my books, I‘m sure I‘d have loved it. ❄️❄️❄️

Andrew65 Well done ☃️☃️☃️ 14h

The reasoning offered in this book for the disappearance of Agatha Christie is as good as truth as far as I'm concerned.

This looked a promising thriller in the synopsis & I really enjoyed books set in/on isolated areas. I found this one a little underwhelming though. Although the idea is good, the POVs for Dee & Tori were not differentiated enough by their characters, & I had to keep checking who was narrating a particular chapter as it could have been either. (continued)

OutsmartYourShelf I also found it a bit all over the place in terms of pacing & plot progression & it felt very haphazard at times. The 'team challenges' also seemed to take a back seat to general griping & sniping between characters. Disappointing. 2⭐

TWs: death, injury detail, drug use (minor references), strong language.

My thanks to #NetGalley & publishers, Serpent's Tail/Viper/Profile Books, for the opportunity to read an ARC.
