Harlan Coben's Shelter

"This did not hold my interest long. It's not bad it's just not very interesting, to me at least. "

"Even when I used to read, I only read a couple of Coban’s books. This really surprised me because it plays more like a YA mystery/fantasy set in what seems to be a utopian society, or at least we can hope. Good chills and thrills with a cool cast and wide open for a second season. I thoroughly enjoyed it. "

"I liked it but in discussion with others, not everyone did. It does have a slow build and redundant scenes. You are left hanging on a few points for next season but main plot is completed at end of season 1. It's a YA series. Enjoy pg13 #ya #thriller #mystery #harlancoben "

"Great binge-able series. Reminds me of Goosebumps or Are You Afraid of The Dark from back in the day. The storylines in the show have you sitting on the edge of your seat at times wondering what's going to happen next, that even being with some episodes ending with cliffhangers."

"So good and suspenseful. Love the cast. The story is mysterious to the point that it makes you wonder sometimes if it’ll cross over to sci-fi. Kinda borderlines on Twin Peaks vibe at times."

"I want to start out by saying I absolutely love Harlan Coben. That being said, whoever created this show completely destroyed the story. You can still see it’s brilliance at its plot, but oh my god they dragged it out way to much by trying to shove every single “quota” scene they possibly could in there to the point it just hijacked the story completely. Not only not in the original story at all but also completely irrelevant to the story line. I get artistic license, but there was nothing artistic about what these scenes brought to the story, which was nothing. It’s like they took the story and said “okay, even if it tarnishes the original brilliance of the story lets make sure we ‘check all the boxes’. Towards the end it just got annoying because of how much time it wasted. For Harlan Coben lovers please take this one with a grain of salt, because in that respect it’s disappointing. "

"Far too much adult language and violence for this to be about a group of high school kids"

"They definitely did well recreating the mystery novel ambiance on screen. "

"I love Harlan, he is the master of suspense, but...I have major issues with the ages/ timeliness, it just seems... fairytailish in parts. But for Harlan I can overlook anything. "

"Really good! Very unexpected twists throughout. Can’t wait for another season."
