Book Review: 10 Hours to Go by Keely Parrack - A Disappointing Ride
Rating ⭐ Stars
Upon picking up “10 Hours to Go” by Keely Parrack, I was intrigued by the promising premise of a thrilling journey filled with suspense and unexpected twists. However, as I delved into the story, I found myself sorely disappointed by what unfolded.
The narrative follows Lily, who finds herself in a precarious situation of relying on her ex-best friend Natasha and their mutual acquaintance Elke for a ride home amidst a backdrop of looming danger from wildfires. What could have been a gripping tale of survival and redemption instead devolved into a monotonous and tiresome account of three characters bickering incessantly.
The characters, far from being compelling or relatable, came across as shallow and unlikable, constantly rehashing past grievances with no real growth or development throughout the book. The tension promised by the synopsis felt forced and contrived, lacking the depth and nuance needed to engage the reader.
As the pages turned, I found myself increasingly frustrated by the lack of substance and meaningful plot progression. The repetitive nature of the interactions between Lily, Natasha, and Elke only served to further diminish any potential intrigue the story might have held.
In conclusion, “10 Hours to Go” failed to deliver on its initial promise, leaving me underwhelmed and dissatisfied. Regrettably, I cannot in good conscience recommend this book to those seeking a captivating and immersive reading experience.
