About this item

Description



About the Book



Somebody in the town of Rock Bay has posted a "share this post and your own deepest death fear" meme and it seems that everybody but Izzy has shared the creepy graphic; nobody knows who posted it, but soon people start dying, and it seems that the meme is part of a plot to extract revenge on the high school students of Rock Bay--Izzy is determined to investigate, but what she uncovers is her own worst nightmare.



Book Synopsis



Hot on the heels of the New York Times bestsellers The Twin and The Lake, the undisputed queen of YA thrillers is back.

Don't be afraid. Be terrified.

It's just a stupid meme that's going around their small fishing town in the dead of winter--people reposting and sharing their biggest fear. But when her classmates start turning up dead--dying in the way that they said scared them the most--Izzy knows it's no joke.

With each death hitting closer to home, Izzy sets out to try to stop the killer. Could her older sister's friend Tristan have something to do with the deaths? He's given her some strange vibes. Or what about his brooding cousin, Axel? But he's in her classes at school. He's not a murderer . . . is he? Izzie's soon on a path that will lead her right to the killer . . . and her own worst nightmare.

The ending sucked. Listen I loved this authors book called “silence” but this book was not it. The ending leaves readers just questioning what the heck they read and how the author just left it like that.

This is the second book that I’ve read by Natasha. I finished this one in two days. However, the ending leaves a lot of questions and I could see the plot twist coming. I would love to see this as a movie though! As long as they get a good director who doesn’t go woke with the story line.
