Publisher's summary
Also in Florida, Jamie Kellogg wakes from an agonizing nightmare of her mother's funeral, and assesses her life: a pretty but unaccomplished twenty-nine-year-old woman in a dead-end job, with an ex-husband in Atlanta, a married lover in the hospital, and a virtual stranger in her bed. But this stranger is everything the previous men in her life weren't: tender, attentive, and adventurous. After convincing Jamie to quit her miserable job and ditch her judgmental, perfectionist sister, he proposes a romantic getaway. While Jamie wonders if this thrilling man might finally be her Prince Charming, they plan a road trip to visit his son, who lives with his mother on a street called Mad River Road...

A voicemail from her estranged sister, Melanie, sends Robin’s heart racing and her mind spiraling in a full-blown panic attack. Melanie’s message is dire: Their father, his second wife, and his 12-year-old stepdaughter have been shot - likely in a home invasion - and lie in the hospital in critical condition.

After watching my mother succumb to a mysterious illness, I promised myself two things. I'd find the cure for what ravaged her and leave the godforsaken city where she abandoned me. Four years later, I received an acceptance letter from Dracadia University, one of the oldest most prestigious schools in the country. Nestled on a secluded island off the coast of Maine, it's rumored to be haunted by the souls of the mental patients exiled there centuries before, those whose bones are said to make up the island's white sandy shores. And restless ghosts aren't even its most daunting peculiarity.

Ok enough to occupy your time.
Story line is predictable, characters are ok. You aren't sure to like them or be ambivalent to all of them. If you are out of books to read it will occupy your time well enough.

What could Joy Fielding have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?
Try not to play "dirty" with the script and just get to the plot...which was weak to begin with and then got weaker!

Not my favorite book
When I started this book I just did not feel into the book I usually do. I always try to give them at least half way before stopping and I was at the point where I decided to finish. I was shocked at the end but it did not have a lot of excitement like most of her endings.

Disappointing
The plot itself was okay, but the narration was really disappointing.
The ongoing breathlessness of the delivery, and the baby voice resulted in a teeth grinding experience. It was a chore to get through this one.
This was just a big miss from an author whose work I generally enjoy.
