Pines by Blake Crouch

Welcome to the 24-25 school year! 

This book is the Teachers and Friends Book Club choice for September, chosen by Mackrille's Mrs. Tirollo. 

Acid trip.

This was made into a very popular series on maybe Netflix, maybe Prime.  I'm not sure, nor would I try to watch it.

I'm still not really sure what was happening.  In a dystopian future, a little town lives secluded from the outside world, everyone is happy, very Stepford Wives-ish.  

Ethan is a special agent.  His colleagues were sent to Wayward Pines to investigate a disappearance, but now they are missing too.  Ethan awakens in the hospital after a car accident, with partial amnesia and his personal items missing.  He can't seem to get in touch with his wife and son back in Seattle.  

What follows is a weird, time traveling, spatial circus.  There are killer kids dressed up as clowns, giant bird-human hybrid monsters, and really bad dialogue.  

Hard no. 

Curious what the rest of the group thinks of this...
