Don't Miss This One! *by H***S on Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2018* Oh My Goodness! Just when I thought Chris Bohjalian couldn't get any better, along comes "The Flight Attendant." What a terrific read! Suspense, fear, paranoia, and the hovering shadow of menaceFor starters, I love the use of the intro-quotation from Margaret Atwood: "Men are afraid that women will laugh at them. Women are afraid that men will kill them." In this story, people get killed, but not always following Atwood's remark.This book is just flat-out terrific! I have just tried to get this title from the Library for my book club, but I will probably need to wait a year at least. All copies are out - and there is a long waiting list. But I do think this book would be an excellent one for a book club. All members could debate the self-destructive zeal of Cassie, and whether she inspires any sympathy. Yes, Cassie, the main character, suffers to the max with alcoholism - so much so that she is not even sure if she did--or didn't--kill someone while in a blackout. Her addiction is so extreme that it is a wonder she functions at all. She looks at the bottles of alcohol and thinks how "beautiful" they are. With a weapon pointed at her, she asks if she can have a drink first. And she is constantly taking the wrong action, going down dark avenues that will only intensify herdesperate predicament.The charged life of a Flight Attendant was the background that put even more anxiety into the story. These people have a tough job, and I just realized the difficulty of landing in one country, heading for the hotel to eat, rest, and pack again, ready to leave on another flight the next morning. Cassie was always on the run, trying to cut her time to get to the airport, worried about the danger she might be in, terrified that her situation might be a threat to her family.This book was top-flight suspense! Don't miss it!I love the writing style of Chris Bohjalian, who smoothly zaps the reader right into the story. And I thought the book was exceptionally well-plotted with enough twists and surprises to add that extra bit of excitement to satisfy any mystery fan. I don't want to say too much - I don't want to slip and put in any spoilers. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars A fast-paced, fun thriller *by K***R on Reviewed in the United States on May 10, 2024* Overall a great, fast read for say....a long international flight. The plot, though far-fetched, and well-researched foreign settings are a big plus. However, Cassie, the lead, is hard to like; she's an alcoholic, prone to blackouts and repeatedly beds men she barely knows - even after waking up beside a corpse. It took some time for me to empathize with her. The ending was rushed and it felt like Bohjalian just wanted to get it over with. ### ⭐⭐⭐ 3.0 out of 5 stars A great ride with totally unexpected twists and turns, marred only by excessive focus on the principal character's thoughts *by A***N on Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2018* I was turned on to The Flight Attendant by Maureen Corrigan's enthusiastic review in the Washington Post (I've long admired her NRP book reviews) and, having thoroughly enjoyed Midwives, was looking forward to this one.The opening section certainly does drag one in, as does the ensuing escape from Dubai and cat-and-mouse intrigue that follows. The slow reveal of what's really going on and the multiple twists and turns near the end came totally unexpected. In that sense, it's a great romp! So why do I give it only 3 stars?Unlike some other readers, who objected to Cassie's alcoholism and self-destructive behavior, I found all that credibly described, if not a bit over the top. No, my problem with the book was the continual interior monologues of both of the principal characters. This in itself is not inappropriate, but here I found it highly repetitive and boring, so I ended up skimming over much of it. Yes, it did provide some insight into Cassie's mindset and amped up the stress level. And it put Elena's activities into a different perspective, particularly as she morphs into something quite unexpected. But there was just too much of it and it slowed down the action to a crawl at times, particularly when the thoughts interrupt a conversation, sometimes for several pages. Maybe it's just me, as I was surprised to see hardly any other of the reviewers complaining about this aspect. If you like that style, go ahead and read it and enjoy the ride! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/106520809-the-flight-attendant-a-novel](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/106520809-the-flight-attendant-a-novel) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-04-25*
