I absolutely loved The Couples Trip! I devoured it from start to finish, unable to put it down. It consumed my thoughts all day, and I couldn’t wait to get back to it after work. @crimebythebook recommendation was spot on—I love a good isolated winter thriller, and this book delivered in every way. The chilling, atmospheric setting in the snowy mountains was completely immersive. It’s the perfect backdrop for a story filled with untrustworthy characters and a plot that keeps you guessing. The use of multiple timelines added depth, and just when I thought I had everything figured out, the twist ending threw me completely off balance. What a wild ride! The characters were so compelling, and I loved discovering their secrets as the story progressed. The book’s foreign setting made it even more exciting; I don’t travel much, so reading about other countries is always a thrilling escape for me. If you’re a fan of gripping plots, jaw-dropping twists, and a vividly atmospheric setting, The Couples Trip is an absolute must-read. Grab a warm blanket, because you’ll be flipping pages as fast as you can, and won’t want to put it down.
