Bird Box – The First 3 Chapters Are Crazy Good

Hey, I just started reading Bird Box by Josh Malerman and it’s so good already. I’ve only read the first 3 chapters and I think the plot and story is great.



The book starts with a woman named Malorie. She’s living in a world where if you see something outside, you go crazy and die. No one knows what it is that causes you to go insane but it’s dangerous and deadly. So now people have to live with their windows covered and only go outside blindfolded. Malorie is trying to keep herself and her two kids safe. In the first chapter she’s getting ready to take them on a boat trip but they are blindfolded. Can you imagine trying to row a boat blindfolded in the middle of a river.

Then the book jumps back in time. We see how the world slowly started to fall apart. People were living normal lives until random people started going insane. News stories pop up, but no one takes it seriously at first. Then it spreads, and it becomes clear looking outside is the problem. Everyone’s scared. Malorie finds out she’s pregnant during all of this, which just adds to the pressure.

Honest Recommendation

What I really like is how the story gives you just enough info to keep you curious, but not everything. It’s creepy but not gory. You’re scared because you don’t know what’s going on just like the characters. If you liked A Quiet Place, you’ll like this. Same kind of scary, where being quiet or in this case, blindfolded is the only way to stay alive. I seriously recommend it. Even if you don’t normally read horror, the mystery and suspense are so good. I’m already into the book and can’t wait to see what happens next. You should totally read it with me
