It’s all she can paint – forest scenery over dead girls. Emma is dealing with some almost PTSD symptoms even years later, after her bunk mates have disappeared from camp. The book is told in the present day times – when Emma is in her twenties and an artist in New York City. I have to admit, this book still resonates with me even after all this time. Summer for me is for slasher movies and good mysteries – mysteries that don’t have “Girl” in the title. It’s a good beach read if you are like me and don’t prefer “chick lit books” all the time. The twists and turns are small until the end which was massive up until the last word. This book drags in some places – an understandable drag to give the feel of whether or not Emma is actually having a breakdown or if what she is going through is real. And fifteen years later she is going back to get some closure. The book discusses the disappearance of three girls from summer camp fifteen years ago and how it affects the surviving cabin member – Emma Davis. That being said, this one is definitely a better book! I am loving the feel of a 1970’s-1990’s horror movie in book format. I read Riley Sager’s first book, Final Girls, and enjoyed it quite a bit. Older than Emma, but willing to take her under her wing.

Vivian Hawthorne – the leader of the cabin. Emma also accused the eldest son of the family of hurting the missing girls. Harris-White Family – the family that owns the camp and the grounds around it. One of my favorite books is coming out in paperback in April, so I figured it was a good time to post a review of the book! Take a look at one of my favorite mystery, thriller summer books from 2018 as you get ready for Riley Sager’s new book, Lock Every Door! The Last Time I Lied By Riley SagerĮmma Davis – the main character and only girl in her cabin to not disappear that night at camp all those years ago “Although their eventual fate remains a mystery, I’m certain that what happened to those girls is all my fault.”
