	Media	Author	Review
		Kayleigh Dray AV Club	"Still, despite its wobblier moments, 'Harlan Coben's Shelter' is a solid little mystery-thriller and will absolutely appeal to people who love this genre"
		William Mata London Evening Standard	"It is well put together, and the talented cast offer enough charm (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
		Lucy Mangan The Guardian	"This twisty thriller is as charming as 'The Goonies' (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
		Robert Lloyd Los Angeles Times	"The twists and turns, conspiracies and connections can be difficult to follow. But there is a difference between story and storytelling, and in between passages of action and suspense, of which there is a well-executed good deal"
		Kylie Northover The Age	"A bonkers web of shape-changing mysteries and worth sticking with as it slowly untangles (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
		Hugo Rifkind The Times	"As a high-school drama-meets-thriller, it's actually not bad"
		Aramide Tinubu Variety	"Some storylines felt completely outlandish and forced, even for a teen drama"
		Ed Power Telegraph	"A whodunit with heart, soul and an infectious sense of fun (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"
		Adam Lock Ready Steady Cut	"It is another teen-centric mystery series that ticks off all of the genre’s most addictive traits (...) It is also highly cliched and entirely superficial (...) Rating: ★★½ (out of 5)"
		Karina Adelgaard Heaven of Horror	"It’s extremely binge-worthy (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
		Joel Keller Decider	"The charm of the leads and the fact that the mystery has multiple layers give us hope that as things are revealed, the storytelling will become a bit less frenzied"
		Elijah Gonzalez Paste Magazine	"Thanks to the chemistry between its central cast and a steady barrage of page-turning twists, it delivers a generally effective mishmash of messy high school drama and unsettling intrigue"
		Taylor Gates Collider	"There's a more daring, riveting show somewhere in here, but unfortunately, it's sheltered under plainer, more middling fare"
		Morgan Cormack Radio Times	"Everything about this series just feels painfully awkward (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)"
		Peter Travers ABC News	"You can count on Coben to deliver the essential ingredient in any mystery: the pleasure of the unexpected"
		Louisa Mellor Den of Geek	"Try to make sense of it all, and you'll develop a stress-based tic. Relax into its weird cocktail of high school sweetness and real-world horrors, and you could have a good time (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
		Geordie Gray The Australian	"No self-respecting adult plans to get sucked into a YA-thriller, but its hard to resist a show as ludicrously twisty and jam-packed with storylines as Shelter"
		Jude Rogers The Guardian	"The general mood is not so much otherworldly terror, but the charisma of the cast helps it compel (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"
