The Death of Mrs Westaway - Ruth Ware

Hal is struggling to make things meet, working as a tarot card reader in Brighton she returns alone each night to her cold small flat, and is trying to hide from the landlord.  She opens a formal letter to let her know that she has been given an inheritance and must go to the Cornwall family home to find out what she gets. 

I don't know about this one, I felt it plodded along and promised thrills and mystery but somehow failed to deliver and I was a bit bored. 3/5

The Woman in Cabin 10 - Ruth Ware

This one didn't really work for me.  Lo has some trauma after being terrorized at home. Left with bruises she boards the maiden voyage of a luxury yacht off to take it's clients to see the northern lights. On the first night she thinks she sees something suspicious and spends the rest of the trip trying to prove herself right.

I found the story and characters a bit forced.  Maybe I wasn't quite in the mood for this book,  but I found it a bit of hard work to get through. 2/5

In A Dark, Dark Wood - Ruth Ware

Nora receives an invitation to attend her school friends Clares hen party, along with her friend Nina they will travel to a modern rural house to have a weekend of relaxing and fun.  Still Nora wonders why she has been invited, she has not seen Clare for ten years, met her fiance or been invited to her wedding.

So you can guess that things will turn strange, and there will be blood.  There are quite a few twists in the story and I didn't totally predict where the story would end up which was nice for a change.  I just wasn't as scared as I would have liked. 3/5
