Holly Jackson, the OG of UK YA thriller writers, has written one of her most exciting novels yet. Five Survive, my Book of the Month, is about a group of teens who set off on a trip for spring break; when they find themselves under attack, they must work out who is trying to shoot them-and why. Set over the course of just a few hours, this taut thriller will keep readers hooked. Charlotte Eyre, The Bookseller
