Richards delivers a tense, fast-paced YA thriller in Five Total Strangers that takes the concept of "stranger danger" to a whole new level. The story follows Mira, a high school senior trying to get home for the holidays during a brutal snowstorm. Her original flight is canceled, and she reluctantly accepts a ride from Harper—someone she barely knows—and Harper's three other passengers, all complete strangers.What begins as a desperate ride home turns into a nightmare. The roads are dangerous, their belongings start mysteriously disappearing, and Mira realizes that one of the passengers might not be who they say they are—or worse, they may be targeting her.Richards masterfully creates a claustrophobic atmosphere where trust erodes mile by mile. While some character development felt a little rushed and the twist wasn’t entirely unpredictable, the book shines in building suspense and paranoia. The icy, remote setting was the perfect backdrop for a psychological unraveling.Recommended for fans of snowy thrillers, unreliable narrators, and stories that keep you second-guessing every character’s intentions. 🚗❄️ ### ⭐⭐⭐ What? *by on Reviewed in the United States January 17, 2022* When I picked this book, I wasn't expecting top tier thriller or suspense. But I definitely expected better. The premise of this book is strong. A winter storm causes some travel delays pushing five random Young adults into a rental with one goal: home for the holidays.After chapter 10. I had one goal: finish this book and Chuck it in the garbage. I HATE DNF'ing books but I definitely glazed over some chapters.I am going to give you a SPOILER free review.1. Our MC Mira is written as the dumbest Nancy Drew Wannabe ever. She senses danger around every corner but never seems to actually do anything about it. Presented with every chance to save herself, she becomes devoted to being the biggest idiot in the world.2. Repetitive. I swear on my library card if I read one more internal monologue listing every personality trait of each character and how they could be THE ONE, I was going to teleport myself into this fictional world and drive them off the snow covered mountain myself. Bam. Now none of you are the one.3. Repetitive. (See how annoying repetitiveness can be?) these kids drove in a giant circle. Every damn chapter was turning around, busting a u turn and blatantly disregarding the MC who seemed to be familiar with the area. The MC points out several times her experiences with the traffic, news, and surroundings. So naturally, she never volunteers more then a weak input.4. These characters. None of them are ever fully fleshed out. Like why is Harper portrayed with such dual personalities with a dash of crazy mother hen? Why is Josh so aggressive? Why did Brecken's parents give him such a horrible name (not really a plot point but wth)? Is Kayla ever going to stop napping!?5. None of this story is wrapped up in a bow. And I know, hear me out, you're probably thinking "It's a thriller. They never leave you feeling satisfied!" No. This story simply didn't conclude. Its like "oh my god. The climax. insanity!!" Then "Oh look cops. And a bad hospital bed scene with a fake sense of understanding". But you don't understand anything. Why did the person do what they did? What happens to the other 4 characters? Who is the yellow hat dude who follows them around? What happens to all the chaos left in their wake? Why does her mother have a totally different attitude then what we spent the whole book reading about?I gave this book two stars. And i am being generous. This book had no real plot map. Its like it tried to cover so many heavy topics like grief, responsibility, drug use, depression, anxiety, and growing pains in the small confines of a clown car filled to the trunk with clowns. Listen, buy the book. Read it. What ever. But when you're skipping chapter 27 because you just want it over with already, don't say I didn't warn you. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great for Fans of Teen Thrillers *by on Reviewed in the United States April 27, 2026* One of my favorite books. From the very beginning you are pulled in five strangers get a rental car to share to drive home for the holidays when all flights are cancelled. Only one of those strangers doesn't seem to be who they say they are... Great for fans of teen thrillers. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/217705276-five-total-strangers](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/217705276-five-total-strangers) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-02*
