Synopsis:
How far would you go to escape your own personal teenage hell? Would you run away, break away from everything you know—even your own body?
Alex Robbins, Brooke Saunders and Maryanne Hemlock could not be more different, yet they all have something in common—deep and soul-searing pain. They are also all students at Streep Academy, a boarding school just one step away from juvie, where they've come to complete high school. The three have been relegated to Harvell House, the residence reserved for the hardest cases, the so-called Rejects from Reject Row.
In the forbidden attic of the old Victorian house-turned-residence, the girls discover the diary of Connie Harvell, a young woman who was confined and abused there some 50 years ago. In the end, Connie’s attic prison couldn't hold her—not completely. She found a way out. At least a dark part of her did. And after reading her diary, the girls discover they can escape at will too. A terrifying, thrilling flight from their bodies and their troubles.
But God help them, their pain isn't all they leave behind when they join with the night.
And God help anyone who’s wronged them...

REVIEW:
I received the book for a honest review and as a part of the tour for the second one! Thanks!:)
This book was
different, so different. I mean I knew after I read the synopsis, but I wasn’t
expecting so many things to happen. And for me was a creepy book, and even I’m
not such a big fan of scary books I enjoyed this one. I mean is not so creepy,
but for a person who don’t read so much horror, is a little.
I won’t talk
about the story too much ’cause I don’t want to spoil you, but is kind of a
original idea, I haven’t read something like this before, and this is a good
thing. But the book is full of suspense and tension and everytime is something
happening or something hidden is discovered and old secrets are broken. And all
that spooky feeling is everywhere and it was like I was reading my Haloween
lecture earlier : )).
The characters
are well described and more I liked Alex and Brooke, but M. is cute too, just
it didn’t really caught my attention. Maybe in the next book the situation will
change. Each girl has secrets or fears and in that dark place you can imagine
how all is going crazy.
And how crazy
the things will go when the present meets the past and the revenge is so
strong? What the girls would do to escape? Would they achieve their goal? With
which price?
I really liked
the book, it was a good read, I won’t say light and cute, cause it wasn’t, but
if you like this kind of lecture, I recommend it to you. And I can’t wait to
read the next one.
4/5
