Until the Last Light Goes Out by Courtney GouldMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Crazy addictive! Could not get enough of this, but also couldn't read before bed because it was spooky! 😂
An abandoned island resort is our setting where, 25 years earlier, all but 5 students from an entire senior class were found dead. Now the daughter of one of those survivors has returned for a memorial, only to discover her best friend has gone missing. Paige knows KJ was obsessed with the mystery, so she has no choice but to enter the resort that haunts her if she wants to see her friend again.
This is a supernatural horror that still manages to feel quite real, and I really enjoyed embracing the story. From the get-go, things are strange and don't seem to add up, and as a reader you're really left scratching your head, trying to figure out what's happening.
The tension is real, and I genuinely had to put it down early to avoid nightmares! This is the kind of story that creeps under your skin and makes you think about all the 'what if's. I loved it!
The character progression and growth was quite interesting, and I enjoyed the dual timelines as it gave more questions than answers and I was keen on unravelling the mystery.
All in all, it was a brilliantly creepy book, perfect for the Halloween season! Highly recommend for horror fans who don't mind a twist of the supernatural.
