The Lost Village by Camilla Sten
'The Lost Village' had a slow start, and for at least half of the book I didn't really like any of the characters. Alice's flaws were layered too thick for me to like her until somewhere at the end, Elsa seemed too smug and do-goody, Aila was a typical brat etc.
I was invested in what would have happened though. The atmosphere in this book was really amazing, and the slow start only made it more creepy than it already was.
For someone like me, who has a fascination for both looking at videos and pictures of abandoned buildings and for cults, this book is very much worth reading. I think it is even if you are interested in one of those things.
The way things ended was a bit obvious, but this book clearly was not about the ending. It was not about solving the mystery at all, it was about the mystery itself.
3,5 stars
