"Hannah knows there's been a mistake. She doesn't need to be institutionalized. What happened to her roommate at that summer program was an accident. As soon as the doctors and judge figure out that she isn't a danger to herself or others, she can go home to start her senior year. Those college applications aren't going to write themselves. Until then, she's determined to win over the staff and earn some privileges so she doesn't lose her mind to boredom. Then Lucy arrives. Lucy has her own baggage, and she's the perfect project to keep Hannah's focus off all she is missing at home. But Lucy may be the one person who can get Hannah to confront the secrets she's avoiding - and the dangerous games that landed her in confinement in the first place"--Page 4 of cover.

"I’d rate this as 4.5/5. It was shocking and beautifully told, I don’t have any major complaints about the story. It hit my feelings hard but the ending didn’t resonate with me how I hoped it was going to. Like most things in life, I wouldn’t consider it a perfect 5/5, but I do believe it deserves 4.5/5.<br/>"

"It was just interesting enough to hold my attention. Just. I was quite disappointed with the ending though, it was far too anticlimactic. It went on for too long just for.. *that* to be the final outcome. If I had to describe this book using only one word: Meh."

"This book started out a little slow and left me with a lot of questions which is why I didn’t give up. Then out of nowhere, BAM! The book gets interesting, and the rest of the story has me hooked. Sheinmel did an amazing job totally blind siding me. Three out of Five stars. <br/><br/>"
