Review; The Resort by Bryce Gibson


As I've read a few other of Bryce Gibson's books, I couldn't resist The Resort and today I'll post my review of this thriller novella.

Description from Goodreads
A fun and fast paced teen thriller… Imagine The Island of Dr. Moreau and The Ruins meets The In Crowd. With an island full of teenagers and no internet access, there is the overwhelming sense that all hell is about to break loose. Living on a tropical island is a paradise that most people dream of, but seventeen-year-old Mackenzie Walker is torn between staying there and the idea of having a normal life on the mainland. Spring Break is when boatloads of thrill-seeking high school and college students flood the resort, but it’s not an endless party for Mackenzie. He’s stuck working. When a frat guy winds up dead, the blame is placed on a dangerous hazing ritual, but Mackenzie’s eccentric father is convinced that it was murder. Mackenzie and his friend, Kristen, set off to discover the truth, but what the two of them uncover along the way is far more terrifying than either of them could have ever imagined. Because, on the resort… Something is out there. Something evil that is waiting for its chance to strike.

My Thoughts on the Book
The Resort is fairly short, but it's fast paced, engaging and entertaining. In other words, it's perfect to end a reading slump. The characters were relatable and I really liked Kristen and Mackenzie. The only downside is that I noticed it could need a bit editing on the names, as it sometimes switches from Krist
en to Kristin, but that's a minor detail.

Overall, it was an enjoyable read.
