Kindle Notes & Highlights
I can tell you my secret right now: At the end of this week, only one of us will make it home alive.
Love how she always starts these books with the killer pov like SLAYYYY (literally)
But she’s not married. So she gets to do whatever she wants without another person criticizing her every move.
So true! Fuck men!
As much as I hate to admit it, Emma’s premonition is making me uneasy. Maybe this trip is a mistake.
NOT THE RANDOM SUPERNATURAL CHILD LMAO BYE
Then again, there’s another reason why I want to go on this trip. And anyway, the reservation is nonrefundable.
And even though everyone is waiting for us back at the car, I let him kiss me again.
HUH???????
Now you think I’m a terrible person. I think I’m a terrible person too. What kind of decent human being does something like this? Not only am I cheating on my husband, but I’m doing it with his best friend. It’s not just awful, it’s cartoon villainy awful.
Yeah i agree not to mention the person youre o
cheating on him with it IS MARRIED TOO?????
“He hired a hitman to knock her off.”
...potential foreshadowing?
Warner tugs at the collar of his shirt. “Interesting coincidence. What’s his name?”
Hmmm
She hugs her chest. “It was like… a growl or a howl or…” I shiver despite the heat. We haven’t come across any wild animals aside from a lot of bugs and a few rabbits. But there were those claw marks on the tree. Obviously, there are wild animals around here. Big ones. “I didn’t hear it,” Jack says. Lindsay’s hands ball into fists. “Well, I did!” Jack seems sure of himself, but I’m not so certain. Don’t people lost in the woods get attacked by animals all the time? Is that so far-fetched?
Ok but what if lindsay is lying bc shes the killer
Belladonna berries look very much like blueberries. They’re shiny black, about half an inch in size, and they’re sweet. The berries are highly toxic. They cause delirium and hallucinations, and they disrupt the body’s ability to regulate its sweating, heart rate, and breathing. Eventually, seizures and cardiovascular failure will occur. Early humans made poisonous arrows using belladonna. In an adult, fifteen to twenty berries are enough to kill you. A child could die from two or three.
Wait between this and the window callback...the killer could also be claire
Snowball was not allowed to eat the berries.
WHAT THE FUCK
Thanks to my mom, I know everything there is to know about poison berries.
Noah has his phone in his hand. My eyes light up when I notice he has a single bar. But then he shakes his head. “No service,” he says.
OHOHO NEW SUSPECT
“She’s dead, Claire. And if we don’t get moving, we will be too.”
I mean she's not wrong......
She lifts her black eyes and stares at me. It’s impossible to miss the accusation in that stare. Does she know about me and Jack? Did she only come on the trip so she could keep an eye on us?
don't fuck with lawyer istg
I feel a sudden, surprising rush of affection for my husband. Of all the things he’s forgotten over the years, including my birthday last year, I didn’t expect him to remember my blood type. I suppose if I got into a terrible accident, he would have my back.
??????? HE FORGOT YOHR FUCKING BIRTHDAY ??????????
“Not worth it,” he says under his breath.
Hes saying this as tho he wont murder him later lol
“You brought the rifle,” I breathe. “Yes.” His voice is clipped. “I did.” “You told Michelle you didn’t bring it.” He lifts his bloodshot eyes. “I lied.”
OH SHIT SUDDENLY JACK IS A LOT SUSSIER
It surprises me how protective Jack has become about Michelle. The last time we were lying in bed together at his house, with Michelle slaving away at the office, he acted like their marriage was a sham. But he’s genuinely terrified for her. And my chest aches when I think about the way they cuddled together last night.
I mean he could be acting...if he didnt care about his wkfe that would be suspicious esp since he mightve killed her
He looks a lot calmer than he did this morning, like his mini-breakdown never happened.
Either ur a bpd girlie or ur SUSSSSS
I don’t understand how we’re still lost. Warner has a map and Jack has a compass. Between the two of them, we should be able to find something. Jack was a freaking Boy Scout, as he has told us a million times before. Why is he unable to follow a simple map?
....did all the boys conspire together ?????
“My dad used to sometimes take me hiking when I was a kid, so I know what to do.” I’m surprised by this revelation. Noah’s father died when he was in college, before I met him. He rarely talks about him. “You never told me that.”
OMG UR SUS
Noah accepts the rifle. He holds onto it with surprising ease, considering I’ve never seen my husband hold a gun before. Of course, I never knew he went hiking when he was a kid. Maybe there’s other stuff I don’t know about him from his past.
Omg hes the killer isnt he
“Is that Noah or Warner has a magnet.”
Its defo noah
“I got it wrong. My friend Buddy works at St. Elizabeth’s. Not St. Mary’s. So there’s no way Warner would know him if he actually worked at St. Mary’s.”
OH????
“Not really.” Noah lifts a shoulder. “She wasn’t so bad. She just… she and Jack had issues.” I look at Noah, surprised he would defend Michelle, considering he never particularly liked her. But then again, if he really thinks she’s dead, there’s no reason to trash talk her.
Hmmmmm
Noah nods solemnly. “He was miserable. He kept telling me he didn’t know what she was like when he married her. He knew he made a mistake. Also, he was… you know, cheating on her. And not just once.” I avert my eyes. “Oh, I… I didn’t realize.” “Yeah.” He lets out a sigh. “But what could he do? She’s the best divorce lawyer in the state. He didn’t want to lose everything.” I cover my mouth. “What are you saying, Noah?” He glances around us. “I’m not saying anything. I just think this whole setup was sort of convenient. He packs this rifle. Michelle gets lost in the woods, even though she had a

Oh my god its definjtely noah
I put the pill bottle back on her nightstand. I crept over her body and left the room, closing the door behind me. Then I went downstairs and finished my sandwich.
I mean.....i lowkey dont blame u
He’s pointing at the rickety circular kitchen table. There’s a plastic chair set up in front of the table. But the really strange thing is there’s a plate on the table. With a sandwich on it. Two bites have been taken out of the sandwich. And there’s also a half-full glass of water.
wait. WAIT....
He chews on his lip. “I thought at the time the water had a strange, chalky taste. And now I’m sure of it. Someone put something in that water.”
OH SHIT I DIDNT EVEN CATCH THAT BUT IT MAKES SENSE
I will never forget the look on my mom’s face when she discovered what I had done to that cat. All the color had drained from her cheeks and she clasped a hand over her mouth as her legs gave way beneath her.
HOLY SHIT
It’s Warner.
WHAT
Noah wanted revenge for my betrayal. But he couldn’t do it alone. He needed a partner in crime.
This explains a lot tbh
Because somebody else is pointing a gun at his head.
WHAT
