Title: Let me save you some time
Review: Let me save you some time before you open this 500-page "page turner." Everybody dies. There. Don't look for more than that--everybody is going to die and nobody is going to be rescued. A plant kills them. Yup, a plant with nice red flowers on it. Oops, did I give it away? Sorry, but the plant winds up killing five good looking young tourists who are out on a lark in the Yucatan. But the killing doesn't start until about page 400, which leaves you plenty of time to think that something else is going to happen, something really big and exciting. Don't hold your breath. Nothing happens except the slow torture of the reader. Really the only fun in this novel is who gets killed first. And then when it happens you're almost thankful because something finally did happen. Don't waste your time with this one, don't buy into the hype or the good reviews. The movie bombed for a reason.
