LyndaWolters1 | Apr 3, 2024 |    ) hellokirsti | Jan 3, 2024 | I'm really surprised at how much I enjoyed this and truly surprised with how well this was written; while the ending was tidy (maybe a bit too tidy), I loved the build up to the major conflict. Like books about books, this girl absolutely STANS an unreliable narrator. (  ) cbwalsh | Sep 13, 2023 | The overall story had an interesting plot. The first half of the book was interesting with the changes in settings, learning the characters, and of the murders. The last half of the book is where it went downhill. The main characters are very weak in their own ways and the story became horribly predictable at every page turn. Was looking for a great ending but didn’t really get it. One bit of action at the end that was slightly surprising but also not. The story overall became unrealistic. Needed more action, stronger characters, and a more believable ending. ★★ Honestly I wouldn’t recommend. There’s much better psychological thrillers out there.

Onderscheidingen
"An annual backpacking trip has deadly consequences in a chilling new novel from the bestselling author of The Lost Night and The Herd. Emily is having the time of her life--she's in the mountains of Chile with her best friend, Kristen, on their annual reunion trip, and the women are feeling closer than ever. But on the last night of their trip, Emily enters their hotel suite to find blood and broken glass on the floor. Kristen says the cute backpacker she'd been flirting with attacked her, and she had no choice but to kill him in self-defense. Even more shocking: The scene is horrifyingly similar to last year's trip, when another backpacker wound up dead. Emily can't believe it's happened again--can lightning really strike twice? Back home in Wisconsin, Emily struggles to bury her trauma, diving head-first into a new relationship and throwing herself into work. But when Kristen shows up for a surprise visit, Emily is forced to to confront their violent past. The more Kristen tries to keep Emily close, the more Emily questions her friend's motives. As Emily feels the walls closing in on their coverups, she must reckon with the truth about her closest friend. Can she outrun the secrets she shares with Kristen, or will they destroy her relationship, her freedom--even her life?"-- Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

The storyline was good, the concept was also good, the gaslighting from one BFF of the other for the ten-year length of their friendship, which includes, who actually killed both backpackers in two different countries on two different girls’ trips. Again, a good story, but, surprisingly, too predicable, and too forced.
The ending is a lot of story dumping to wrap up the lose ends; a telling of events. And then the last line or two was an attempted red herring.
We Were Never Here is a decent book, but do have a dictionary standing by for the zinger words. (
