I used to listen to audiobooks non-stop. Getting ready in the morning, going for a run, driving to work? Audiobook time. However, during the COVID lockdown, I fell out of that habit. I was living with family, had a very different daily routine, and just lost the eagerness to push play. Even after moving back into my apartment and tapping into my former day-to-day, I still had a very hard time jumping back into listening. However, that changed as soon as someone recommended Ski Weekend.
Written by Liani Kotcher writing as Rektok Ross, Ski Weekend is a young adult thriller that covers what happens when a group of teenagers heads to the mountains for a senior ski weekend. On their way there, their car crashes into a snowbank leaving them stranded with no cell service and dwindling resources. Do they brave the cold and snow to find help? Do they wait it out in hopes that someone will find them? While the incident might seem like a brief ski trip delay initially, the group soon comes to realize that every decision they make is a matter of life and death.
While in San Diego for Comic-Con 2022, Kotcher and producer Miles Koules swung by the Collider interview studio to offer an update on the adaptation process. Hear all about their dream directors, casting goals, target rating, and loads more in this Ski Weekend interview!
