ANYWAY moving right along to devil sharks by chris jameson!

text

A pleasure cruise in Paradise leads to a group of friends to a shark-infested Hell...

When Alex Simmons is invited to a college reunion in the Hawaiian Islands aboard the private yacht of his old pal Harry Curtis, he is not sure what to expect. The two men had a falling-out years ago over the suicide of one of their friends. Could this be Harry's way of making amends? Or is something more sinister in store?

The crew sets sail and arrives at Orchid Atoll, the site of a deserted former Coast Guard station. But they are far from alone. Out here, three hundred miles from civilization, Alex and his friends are about to encounter two very different brands of evil--one human, the other with fins--unlike anything they could have possibly imagined. They have entered a place where there's no law, no mercy... and no way out.

so like. it's not that this book is bad or anything. it's fine. but it's shaping up to be more like pirate peril vs. shark peril, and that's kinda not what i'm here for? i don't really care about regular dudes being assholes, dudes can be assholes on land too. i want to see Scary Water Things.

we'll get a little farther and see what happens

did some light skimming and it looks like majority pirate violence with the sharks just kinda there as added menace + cleanup. maybe later I'll come back to finish it but rn i'm just not interested enough. sad.

oh well. there are other books
