It's a well written mystery told in multiple points of view that will keep you guessing until the very end. It's also a sinister story about a group of college students wanting to get away and have an opportunity to spend three months on a secluded island in Alaska for free. The suspense starts from the beginning and continues to the end. There are thrills and chills throughout with lots of twist and turns. Each character will keep you reading until the end. I appreciated that the characters weren't carbon copies of one another...but how the author created an entirely different persona for each character. How the chapters were presented, made the story even more immersive. It was so easy to tell what each character was thinking without giving away the murderer until that perfect moment. It would make a very creepy movie.… (más)

The Bachelorette Party was a good read that captured me from the first page.
Set in New Orleans, a person is found dead but the reader is left to wonder who they were and why?
It was told from different characters' points of view and I found out more about each character as the story continued. I was shocked at the end; I was not expecting that!

Overall, it was a good read that kept me reading, but it does seem to be a theme right now that a lot of books have a party and someone is murdered, if you like books that are similar in theme you will like this.… (más)

Thank you Netgalley, Harper Impulse and Killer Reads and Carissa Ann Lynch for allowing me to read this advance copy in exchange for an honest review.


Camilla is a pill popping drunk who killed her husband in a car accident which also left her with horrific scars and lasting pains. As a result of the trauma, she has essentially become a recluse and her only communication is via social media. She has basically shut her only relative, a sister out of her life even though her sister insists on trying to help her.

Camilla found a old friend from her high school days and becomes a dedicated follower. Things become chaotic and dangerous when she becomes obsessed with Valerie and worries when she doesn't hear from her daily.

The writing style is like a crazy ride through Camilla's mind and views. Due to the trauma she suffered it triggered several mental illnesses. She has a hard time deciphering reality from illusion or memories. Mix that with alcohol and pain medication and it's a good formula for a book that kept me interested.
