Beschrijving

In a secluded world turned upside down, Raxter School for Girls stands as a haunting reminder of a past life, now isolated from the outside due to a mysterious contagion known as the Tox. The girls have been living in a state of confinement, battling both the physical and emotional toll of their new reality. Eighteen months after the quarantine began, their lives are marked by fear, camaraderie, and the strange transformations brought about by the Tox. Each girl faces her own challenges amidst the creeping dread, as the boundaries of their world become increasingly blurred.

The story centers around three friends whose bonds are tested as they navigate the treacherous landscape of survival. As the effects of the Tox worsen, their trust in each other is pushed to the limit, forcing them to confront their deepest fears and the essence of their existence. A looming sense of danger writes their fate, and the arrival of unforeseen circumstances propels them into a harrowing journey for answers.

Amidst the eerie backdrop of a school once vibrant with activity, the struggle for freedom and identity takes precedence. The girls find themselves at a crossroads, where friendship could be both their salvation and their downfall. In this richly woven narrative, unsettling truths about survival and sacrifice become intertwined, leaving them to grapple with what it truly means to be free.

Recensies

3.0

Spoiler3.5 stars - not quite a 4, but 3 feels harsh.At first, I really enjoyed the story and characters. You're thrown into a tense situation, it's been over a year since the island has been quarantined and the students and teachers have had to create a "new normal". Their bodies have changed in unimaginable ways, they've lost friends and struggle to survive. The first half is great, but the second half feels rushed and unfinished. There are loose ends with no explanation, which is odd given the main characters are searching for the truth. The story becomes about the journey and experiences, which isn't "enough". It's a book that leaves you wanting much more.
