    Als Camilla mit ihm Schluss macht, fällt Noah aus allen Wolken. Er ist (noch) erfolgloser Künstler und kann ihr nicht das Leben bieten, das sie sich vorgestellt hat. Als er die verwitwete Betty kennenlernt, entwickelt Noah einen riskanten Plan, um Camilla zurückzugewinnen.

    Die Story war an sich unterhaltsam und ließ sich gut hören. Während einige Elemente der Handlung etwas erwartbar waren, habe ich manche Wendungen auch nicht vorhergesehen. Ich war interessiert am Fortgang der Geschichte, habe aber wenig mit den Figuren mitgefühlt, da mir alle Charaktere mehr oder weniger unsympathisch waren - was aber durchaus zu dem Buch gepasst hat. Nach dem Pacing in der ersten Hälfte des Buches hat sich das Ende etwas übereilt angefühlt. Die dargestellten Rollenbilder und Einstellungen der Charaktere waren nicht unbedingt zeitgemäß. Und was geht bitte mit dem Alkoholkonsum in dem Buch? Es sind einfach alle konstant am Saufen.

    Insgesamt war es eine nette Story für zwischendurch, ich vermute aber, dass sie mir nicht besonders im Gedächtnis bleiben wird.

    After the summer holidays, Andrew returns to Wickwood boarding school, but somehow it's different from last year. His best friend Thomas regularly mysteriously disappears, his twin sister Dove suddenly keeps her distance, and why are students not allowed to go into the forest any more?

    I really enjoyed this one. From the very beginning, the book managed to create a great atmosphere. It was mysterious, gripping, scary, dark and heartbreaking. The characters were likeable in their own ways. Them being teenagers was annoyingly clear looking at their thoughts and behaviors. The author managed to capture extremely well the emotions of this life phase. What really surprised me is that I was relatively invested in the romance part of the book, considering I almost never enjoy any kind of love story. Finally, the horror elements were great. The ideas were original, as well as scary. The ending left me with a lot of emotions, which I first had to cope with, but then I really liked.

    All in all it was a great horror book, which I definitely would recommend to fans of the genre. It was just a little bit too YA. 15-20 years ago it would have probably been a 5-star-read for me.
