There are clues that they find or are displayed on a monitor which make little sense and do nothing to help them out of this situation.I think the best part of the story is how we slowly are privy to why each person was chosen to be in the escape room and how everything from both timelines ties together.

The alternating chapters are from another character's point of view, the "dead but not forgotten", Sara Hall. Even if I somehow managed to survive the first room, the library (of all places) would have taken me out.

With Sara narrating, it's clear that she must still be alive, as she tells the story about getting hired by the company, her horrible co-workers, and her grueling job at the company. As a group of disparate pre-teens, they must learn how to work together quickly so they can solve all the problems they are presented with. I wasn't really emotionally invested in them, which is a shame considering this is an escape room story. The latest mind-blowing novel from award-winning author Christopher Edge, Escape Room is a thrilling adventure that challenges readers to think about what they’ve done to save the world today.

It was good for the target audience and I enjoyed all the different locations and the historical / cultural information. but if you’ve been watching the news, getting sick of seeing shitty people get away with shitty things, do you want challenging and upsetting or do you want to see some smug, entitled monsters get their comeuppance for once? There was definitely a turning point for me where I seen things in a different light and was able to foresee where this story was headed. She is now based in Melbourne, Australia where she raises three sons and is a foster mum to Labrador puppies learning to be guide dogs. While this would normally be a turn off for me, the plot and the potential outcome kept me motivated to keep on reading.I love reading all kinds of books and this book was a fun one which did not require much thought but had a huge pay off in terms of enjoy-ability. I actually love some good character bantering but the bickering was just a little too much for me to handle at times. The opening pages of the book reveal that it all ends in a bloodbath, and yet it is hard to see why we should care.
