Full review at Smart Bitches, Trashy Books 
 As many of you know, psychological thrillers featuring kickass ladies are just about my favorite thing ever, and when I got my grabby little hands on The Woman in Cabin 10 I was super excited. It's a creepy locked room mystery with an amazing narrator, a couple of good red herrings, and lot of delicious twists. The mystery maintains a good pace too, and once I started reading I had to finish that same day. It would have been a one-sitting book except I started it before work and had to, you know, actually show up. 
 It's also a big 'ol middle finger to gaslighting and to dismissing women with anxiety or depression as "crazy" or untrustworthy, and let me tell you, I loved that so much. 
 This book deals a lot with gaslighting, and I loved that so much. For those unfamiliar with the term, gaslighting is when someone is manipulated into doubting their memory or experience, and it's a thing that happens to women when they are legitimately distressed about something and then told that distress is not valid. 
 If you want to read this book, but are leery, The Woman in Cabin 10 isn't a particularly gory or scary mystery. It's very suspenseful, and there is real danger at times, but I don't think it's nightmare-inducing. It is incredibly smart, well paced and well-plotted. Plus, Ruth Ware does a great job of creating this claustrophobic, moody atmosphere that enhances everything about the suspense. 
 The Woman in Cabin 10 would get an A from me based on the merits of the mystery alone-the fact that it takes a long, hard look at gaslighting and declares "fuck you," is just a wonderful added bonus. I know many SBTB readers love mysteries and thrillers, or know someone who does, so if that's you, I cannot recommend this book enough.
