One by One by Fredia McFadden

One by One -- by Fredia McFadden is this gripping psychological thriller about a group of people who end up at this secluded house under mysterious circumstances after getting lost in the forest. The suspense builds up really well, and the characters are intriguing with their own hidden secrets.

The twist is pretty clever, though I had a bit of it figured out midway through. It didn’t take away from the overall tension or enjoyment, though. The way McFadden weaves the story together is really well done, and even though I anticipated part of the twist, there were still surprises that kept me on edge. It was a good blend of suspense and horror rolled together into a nice little ball. 

What really stood out for me was the ending. It’s not just the final twist but also the last comment that McFadden leaves us with—it’s so fitting and gives the story a final punch that made me appreciate the book even more. The ending really ties everything together and adds a layer of depth that lingers after you finish reading. Overall, it’s a really good read, especially if you enjoy thrillers that keep you guessing!
