The Flight Attendant

‎06-05-2022 04:00 PM

Hello readers,
Has anyone read the book that the HBO show The Flight Attendant is based on? I have become a huge fan of the author, even though the 2nd season of the show is so chaotic and frankly awful!

sorry, i didn't even like the show. i could only tolerate 3-4 episodes. too many drunken/drugged flashbacks. I wouldn't even attempt the book.

We watched last year and could not get through even one eposide this year way to discoganizeed

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

This is the Chris Bohjalian book by the same title?  If so, yes.  I thought it a mediocre thriller. Read it recouperating from surgery while on painkillers and it was fine for those challenging conditions. But its not something I would recommend.

I read The Guest Room and just finished his latest, The Lioness and I liked them very much. Very fast reads.

I read it either early this year or last year. I thought it was an acceptable thriller.
