Summary

Hot on the heels of the New York Times bestsellers The Twin and The Lake， another pulse-pounding read from the undisputed queen of YA thrillers！

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。

5 stars had me hooked from the first page。 This was everything hide wish it could have been。 Everything had me second-guessing。 Natasha preston knows how to hook you with a good book。 I wish i could reread for the first time。

Desiree ，

This book is as so good。 Very quick read that you get sucked into I read it in about 4 hours。 However I did not like the cliffhanger much like other books she has written。 I was hoping for a solid ending。 Other than that it was a very great intense read！

Natasha Preston seems to be a fan of innocuous names。 This one， called The Island （Does the island have an actual name？ If so I missed it）， is about six social media influencers who are invited to an expensive island resort before it opens。 Problem is， there’s no plans for anyone to leave the island。The book started off a little slow in my opinion–do I ever regret thinking that at all。 The rest of the book is nonstop murder and mayhem。 The book has a bloodbath that can almost put the Hunger Game Natasha Preston seems to be a fan of innocuous names。 This one， called The Island （Does the island have an actual name？ If so I missed it）， is about six social media influencers who are invited to an expensive island resort before it opens。 Problem is， there’s no plans for anyone to leave the island。The book started off a little slow in my opinion–do I ever regret thinking that at all。 The rest of the book is nonstop murder and mayhem。 The book has a bloodbath that can almost put the Hunger Games to shame。 You feel the chaos that Harper， the MC， does。 She’s having to figure out motives and strategies to survive on the go instead of having the time to organize her thoughts into videos on cold cases like she normally does。 The very first rule that everyone knows about being trapped somewhere with a killer is never go anywhere alone。 Rule two: Rule one never works out。 The only issue I had with the book was a matter of personal taste about the ending of the book–which is MY preference。 The book is still phenomenal， just maybe don’t read this on a weekend when nobody’s home。 。。。more

Ok so I love all of Natasha Preston books and I absolutely had to have this book so I preordered it just so I would receive it on release day！ I got it just a couple hours ago and I am starting to read it。 I will place my review once I finish it Haha。

Is this one going to be open ended？I haven't read a book by this author in a while。 I read two of her books back in 2019 and I think they were both books published early in her career （2014-2015）。 They were ok， but didn't wow me， so I'm interested to see how she's grown as a writer since them。 This premise of this one sounds interesting & makes me think of You're So Dead by Ash Parson （that one has a similar plot line to this， but it was way more campy than I expected it to be） and also， Hide by Is this one going to be open ended？I haven't read a book by this author in a while。 I read two of her books back in 2019 and I think they were both books published early in her career （2014-2015）。 They were ok， but didn't wow me， so I'm interested to see how she's grown as a writer since them。 This premise of this one sounds interesting & makes me think of You're So Dead by Ash Parson （that one has a similar plot line to this， but it was way more campy than I expected it to be） and also， Hide by Kirsten White （because of the amusement park setting）。 I hate open ended stories （which is one of the reasons Hide was a let down for me）， and I've seen a couple reviewers on here say the ending for this book is abrupt， so I'm wondering if this is an open ended type of story？ If anyone sees this review and has already read this book， could you please let me know if it's open ended or not？ If it is， I'll just take it off my TBR cause I know it's not a book for me。 Otherwise， I think I'll go into this one with low expectations and hopefully be pleasantly surprised。 。。。more

1。5 stars。 While it was quick-paced and sometimes a bit creepy， the characters of The Island felt stereotypical and somewhat shallow。 The main character trying to deduce who the murderer was felt weird， as I felt that she made mostly baseless assumptions。 The ending was。。。。a thing。 I was not impressed by the reveal of the murderer and I was mostly befuddled by the very last scene。

There are so many literary islands out there， and this may be one of my favorites！ The small group of influencers invited to a theme park have the island all to themselves and it should be one of the best trips of their lives！ But it may be the last！ The first third of this book flies by！ The imagery is so vivid and I want to go to this park！ The characters are believable （if not relatable） and everyone is there for a good time。 Until someone turns up missing。 From there， the writing gets a litt There are so many literary islands out there， and this may be one of my favorites！ The small group of influencers invited to a theme park have the island all to themselves and it should be one of the best trips of their lives！ But it may be the last！ The first third of this book flies by！ The imagery is so vivid and I want to go to this park！ The characters are believable （if not relatable） and everyone is there for a good time。 Until someone turns up missing。 From there， the writing gets a little muddy， the flow between action and conversation and drama and speculation a bit choppy。 The characters are a little lost， trying idea after idea， hoping something will finally work。 The ending comes up quick， back with a lot of action。 The very end did leave me with a lot of questions。 Overall， I love this for the YA audience and will recommend it to my students！ 。。。more

Okay well that is one way to end a book。 I am a bit angry mostly because I think this is a stand alone book， so I am angry。 All good books though should leave someone feeling something， yet I don’t know that I would say this is a good book。 I loved the idea。 Sending a bunch of influencers to an island and then picking them off one by one。 However， the book did not read as smoothly as I would have liked it。 Sometimes the action was coming at you so fast that my brain skipped what was going on so Okay well that is one way to end a book。 I am a bit angry mostly because I think this is a stand alone book， so I am angry。 All good books though should leave someone feeling something， yet I don’t know that I would say this is a good book。 I loved the idea。 Sending a bunch of influencers to an island and then picking them off one by one。 However， the book did not read as smoothly as I would have liked it。 Sometimes the action was coming at you so fast that my brain skipped what was going on so I had to go back a couple times to figure out what actually had happened。 Most of to the time the item I missed was like one sentence which made the world of a difference。 I loved the potential that this book had I just don’t know that it delivered。 I do think teens will be drawn to the concept though。 tThank you so much to Random House Children and Netgalley for allowing me to read an advance copy of this title。 。。。more

Thank you to NetGalley， Random House Children's， and Delacorte Press for the eARC of this book！Having read a couple of other books this past year with the "influencers trapped on a creepy island" plot， I was worried that I would be so sick of the premise by the time I got to this one that I just wouldn't like it at all。 However， this was not the case at all。 I thought the characters were really interesting and dynamic， and I enjoyed Paisley as the narrator a lot。 I will say that I guessed who wa Thank you to NetGalley， Random House Children's， and Delacorte Press for the eARC of this book！Having read a couple of other books this past year with the "influencers trapped on a creepy island" plot， I was worried that I would be so sick of the premise by the time I got to this one that I just wouldn't like it at all。 However， this was not the case at all。 I thought the characters were really interesting and dynamic， and I enjoyed Paisley as the narrator a lot。 I will say that I guessed who was behind it all before the halfway point of the book， but then again I'm usually pretty good at guessing the plot twists。 Yet， somehow， I'm still surprised by them when they come up， and I think the reveal in this particular book was done really well。 My only criticism of the book was the ending。 It was unresolved， but purposefully done。 I think that if I was the kind of gal who liked mystery endings， I would have loved it， but unresolved endings usually just make me super mad。 That being said， it made sense for the book—I'm just not happy about it for personal reasons。 I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who doesn't mind an unresolved ending！ 。。。more

making a list of pros and cons because those are fun to writeproscons-the main character was so annoying -plot twist was extremely guessable -every single character was annoying and i did not care for them at all-lots of things were unrealistic -the writing was bad very bad-a lot of loose ends-the ending was 🤮-the romance was cringey and just no

I’ve read a few books by this author and I find they always have a fun premise。 They’re easy to read and the writing is basic which doesn’t require a lot of mental energy。 The influencer character is being overly used in books right now but it makes it accurate with current times and trends。 Although this is a Young Adult thriller， the characters’ decisions were so frustrating to read about， their deductive skills were questionable。 I wonder if the author does that on purpose just to annoy the r I’ve read a few books by this author and I find they always have a fun premise。 They’re easy to read and the writing is basic which doesn’t require a lot of mental energy。 The influencer character is being overly used in books right now but it makes it accurate with current times and trends。 Although this is a Young Adult thriller， the characters’ decisions were so frustrating to read about， their deductive skills were questionable。 I wonder if the author does that on purpose just to annoy the reader。 There weren’t any herrings so it was easy to guess the killer。 My daughter said the killer was small brain 😂 and the ending wasn’t very sophisticated。 Also why was everyone “hot” and why did everyone like the same girl？ My teenage daughter and I both agreed this was a 3 star YA thriller。 I’m glad we got to read it together and discuss all the nonsense。 。。。more

A perfect blend of social media influencers and murder。 I loved reading this thriller involving influencers taking an opportunity of a lifetime trip that goes incredibly wrong。 This book was packed with non-stop action， mystery and dead bodies。 It is a shocker when I think something happening like this in real life is plausible due to the risks that some high-profile social media influencers are willing to take for fame， views or followers。 In some moments I was flabbergasted by how dumb the cha A perfect blend of social media influencers and murder。 I loved reading this thriller involving influencers taking an opportunity of a lifetime trip that goes incredibly wrong。 This book was packed with non-stop action， mystery and dead bodies。 It is a shocker when I think something happening like this in real life is plausible due to the risks that some high-profile social media influencers are willing to take for fame， views or followers。 In some moments I was flabbergasted by how dumb the characters could be by going off on their own when a murderer is on the loose。****A Billionaire designs an incredible attraction atop an island that is accessible only by boat or helicopter。 It gives off trapped; locked room vibes that are quite intense。 The attraction is a private amusement park for the very rich。 What better way to market and advertise to draw guests in than to give an exclusive invitation to a group of naive social media influencers？ They explore and create content showcasing this phenomenal new resort & park that soon becomes deadly。The influencers， Liam， Paisley， James， Will， Ava and Harper are mind blown when arriving at The Island。 With the luxurious accommodations， incredible food and state-of-the-art theme park， it’s no question they are excited to share everything with their followers。But almost immediately， someone goes missing。 The internet and phone communications are cut and the power goes out。 Someone begins to pick off the employees and their guests， one by one and that’s where the games begin。 The quest to survive and figure out the killer before they all end up as permanent guests of the island。 。。。more
