Goodnight Stranger by Miciah Bay GaultMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
Points for the setting which sounds beautiful and is appropriately isolating. Also, there were a couple of really creepy (in a good way) scenes. But there were one too many (convenient) quirks: Lucas doesn't use the phone (why?), Lydia both wants to leave the island desperately and also she loves the island and gets panic attacks if she can't see it (?), and (view spoiler). The ending also seemed a little anticlimactic. But thrillers are hard, and this one has plenty of propulsive action in the middle. Not a bad airplane/beach read.

That was a lie, though,. Lucas wanted to go back in time, I wanted a future. But the problem was the same for both of us: we were stuck here--the two of us together--perpetually in this present moment.
