If you were a fan of Gone Girl and Girl on the Train, this book should be next on your list to read. The Woman in Cabin 10 is another psychological thriller with an unreliable character that you are unsure whether or not to believe.
After being victim to a break-in, Lo Blacklock jumps at the opportunity to go on a cruise that could help further her career and hopefully put her mind at ease. The cruise does not go as flawlessly as planned, and Lo hears the sound of something, or someone, being thrown overboard. Was someone murdered, or is her mind just playing tricks on her?
Although some may feel like the psychological thriller genre has been a bit played out, Ruth Ware has proven otherwise with her new novel. The Woman in Cabin 10 is another gripping novel that will keep you guessing, and will make sure you can't fall asleep without finding what happens next. - Danielle (QBD)
