The Island

Another #TargetFind, another murder mystery/thriller, another fantastic book. This one is Natasha Preston's "The Island."

["They said goodbye to their friends and family for the weekend. They weren’t counting on forever.

Jagged Island: a private amusement park for the very rich—or the very influential. Liam, James, Will, Ava, Harper, and Paisley—social media influencers with millions of followers—have been invited for an exclusive weekend before the park opens. They’ll make posts and videos for their channels and report every second of their VIP treatment.

When the teens arrive, they're stunned: the resort is even better than they’d imagined. Their hotel rooms are unreal, the park’s themed rides are incredible, and the island is hauntingly beautiful. They’re given a jam-packed itinerary for the weekend.

But soon they'll discover that something's missing from their schedule: getting off the island alive."]

I just...you think you know. You think you figured it out. Even if you don't agree with the narrator's/character's theory, even if you know there's a puzzle piece missing, even if there's dozens of pages left...

Damn. I mean. Wow. This book. All of the twists and turns and murder and running and clues and red-herrings and knives and swords and gore. Holy. Shit. I just...wow.

This book was SO good! I mean, honestly. It was twists and turns and dark and murdery and serial-killer haunted houses. The gothic island with the gargoyles and thrill rides was just the tip of the iceberg. The influencers wasn't even the key (spoiler alert).

I'm just seriously flabbergasted. 

And after that cliffhanger ending?! I'm not sure if I need a romance to calm down or to binge-read more of Natasha's stuff to get more amped-up.
