Such Quiet Girls by Noelle W. Ihli
4.5
“At this point, my entire life was a detour. The last thing I needed was another one.”
Jessa is driving the children on bus 315 from school to daycare when she hits a detour on their normal route. As she takes the new turn, they're confronted by a man in a van with a gun and all eleven of them are kidnapped and deposited in a shipping container buried 20 feet underground. Time and air are running out in this pulse-pounding, gut-wrenching thriller.
SUCH QUIET GIRLS is my second read by Noelle W. Ihli (RUN ON RED being my first) and dang, does she know how to write a claustrophobic, heart-racing thriller!
This story was based on real events (which I'm unfamiliar with) that made it even harder to read at times, knowing that this wasn't just a fully imagined scenario 😭
I loved the characters and the rotating POVs (12-year-old Sage did annoy me at times, especially listening on audio), and seeing their growth throughout the story was really beautiful!
Thanks to Libro.fm for the ALC - I highly recommend listening to the audiobook of this one!
