Just close your eyes and imagine some scenes from an airplane hijacking. Honestly, there's no need to read this book. There's a simplicity and predictability to everything in here that wore me out and completely bored me to tears. They are just stereotypes, and can be replaced by any other character of the same type. I never made any emotional connections with the characters. I caught myself skimming multiple times because my brain just filled in all the blanks without having read any of it. It's hard to keep my focus when I already know how it will all play out. Every scene felt like a repeat of ones I'd seen before from bad action movies. Of course the passengers are upset, the flight attendants heroic, the bad people Middle-Eastern, and the authorities good meaning but bumbling.Įvery dialogue is so cringey in how predictable and trite it was. If a book could be made up of clichés, one after another, this is it. The crux of the problem is that there's nothing compelling or new or even entertaining in here. That sounds interesting enough, and the first few chapters were. When his plane is midair, he is confronted with a choice: crash the plane or his family will die. What he doesn't know is that his wife and children have been kidnapped and are being held hostage. Given the premise, it's really quite unbelievable.īill Hoffman is the pilot of Flight 416, en route to JFK with 149 souls on board. The Wow, I'm kind of speechless at how utterly dull this story was.
