توضیحات

Murder.  
Fire.  
Revenge.  

That’s all seventeen-year-old Alice Monroe thinks about. Committed to a mental ward at Savage Isle, Alice is haunted by memories of the fire that killed her boyfriend, Jason. A blaze her twin sister Cellie set. But when Chase, a mysterious, charismatic patient, agrees to help her seek vengeance, Alice begins to rethink everything. Writing out the story of her troubled past in a journal, she must confront hidden truths. Is the one person she trusts only telling her half the story? Nothing is as it seems in this edge-of-your-seat psychological thriller from the debut author Emiko Jean.

رازآلود هیجان‌انگیز و تعلیق وحشت

This wasn't really a bad book, but unfortunately I saw the twist coming extremely early (as in about 10% in), which in a book that relies on said twist is a very frustrating thing.The set-up is interesting, though I have a strange fondness for books set in psychiatric hospitals, and the characters themselves were well-drawn, though a bit prone to teenage drama and angst, even for characters in this situation. Occasionally our narrator would make a scene over something that seemed insanely minor to me in comparison to something she had just handled with nary a complaint, so the see-sawing in that regard was a bit frustrating. I felt like I had just the right combination of feelings about Alice for a thriller-type novel, and this might have been a hit with me if I had been wrong about the plot.It's not a bad plot, don't get me wrong. It's well-told and goes back and forth between "now" and "before" in a way that I have always liked in my books, but the hints were way too heavy-handed for me and I guessed things way too early. Once I had guessed, there was not a single concern that I was wrong at any point, either: everything seemed to be pointing that way once I was looking for it. That's something that is very hard to forgive in a thriller, because it takes the thrill right out of it. I might simply be a bit jaded with the genre, admittedly--if you can't guess the ending, this is definitely an intriguing read.
