"I'm a slow reader...or maybe I pick the wrong books. But I finished this in 2 days! I could not put it down. Definitely has a good pace and some unforseen twists!"
Gretta Albrecht
"I had such high hopes for this book, but it was extremely lackluster and most of the book was very slow and boring, and the very ending was when finally things were taking a turn for the worse but i expected such a bigger twist and more horror than what was given."

"A nice story-line about a not-so-secret secret club in an elite school where the games go a little too far. The novel was well written with the mystery being hard to figure out who the culprit behind everything was. The ending was a little to open-ended for my liking though."
Cathern Young
"Amazing job at telling the story and keeping you reeled in. Such a good shocking end to this stand alone novel. I honestly wish it was a series so I could have read more of this story. I can’t recommend this enough. #drama #thriller #mystery #suspense"
