6 Guilt-Free Pleasures to Read at the Beach
(2 of 2)
THE RUINS SCOTT SMITH PLEASE, PLEASE let this be the most disturbing novel of the year. The Ruins is the tale of a bunch of American tourists on a boozy Mexican vacation that becomes a fever dream of grisly horror. Smith (A Simple Plan) writes with psychological acuity and real beauty, yet he doesn't pull punches. To be more specific would just waste good dramatic tension. But seriously, it's just awful what happens to these poor people.
