V171 reviewed Run: A Novel by Blake Crouch
None
1 star
Didn't enjoy a single second. Not because it was egregiously violent or pointless, which it was. But rather so many things that didn't make sense mixed with the extremely repetitive nature of the story led to a dull reading experience.
Drive, car troubles, find a house, find butchered bodies. Drive, car troubles, find a house, find butchered bodies. Find butchered bodies, run from bad guys, find a house, run from bad guys. Find butchered bodies, run from bad guys, find a settlement, run, find butchered bodies, find a settlement.
There you go, that was the book. Except for the fact that also every member of the family was terrible and annoying. Was really hoping for a better experience from a Blake Crouch book, but boy was this disappointing. If you liked Dark Matter or Recursion, this is nothing like those.
