Becky was a successful realtor with a
healthy bank account and sharing a lovely home with her boyfriend. But she’s
too strung out and needed a break, so she decided to take a solo vacation to
unwind and decompress. A double-booking at a resort had her bunking with a
complete stranger named Alice, who turns out to be grungy, selfish, and
inconsiderate. How can you share anything with her? This was supposed to be her
vacation. But Becky was willing to tough it out, but her roommates odd behavior
would make her glad NOT to see Alice ever again. Think again.
At work, Becky would be in need of a
temp and, lo and behold….she’s BAAACCKK. That’s when Alice stars to befriend
Becky.
This sounded interesting, but the
story had too much lag, especially pertaining to mundane things like Becky
getting a tattoo and her losing her cat. Alice seemed non-existent and
non-threatening for the most part. Perhaps the story was lulling us into a
false sense of security? The story could’ve done a better job at making Alice
seem like a threat. Yes, there was a creep factor with some mild suspense, but
it was nothing to get my undies in a bunch.
My rating: 3
