Armageddon House by Michael Griffin

3.0

3.5/5

Not what I expected, but surprisingly good.

Four adults, two men, two women, live together, sealed in an underground bunker. They have no idea how long they have been there, why they are locked away, or when they will get out. Their memories of their past lack clarity and raise a lot of questions. They assume they're participating in a test, but of what kind precisely? No one knows.

Their life revolves around daily routines: cleaning, eating, speaking. When one of them goes missing, the rest starts looking for her in the bunker. Personalities start to clash. Weird things happen, and the tension between characters spikes.

It's short but dense.Worth a read, especially if you like books that play with your head.
