Wish You Were Dead: Quick Reads

Product Information

The ending tied everything up, weaving it together nicely without any of it actually feeling like it was done just for the sake of being able to do it or to ties up the loose ends. The ultimate motivation and driving force behind this was a unique take on something often done and the specific way it was carried out was even better. Something I can completely see- despite how inhumane it was.

Sie wünscht der Lucy den Tod. Paar Tage später verschwindet diese mitten in der Nacht vor dem Haus ihrer Eltern. Danach bloggt sie weiter und immer mehr Kommentare bekommt sie. i loved jane, she was honestly so sweet but she had that fire in her which i really related to, she has been through something which made her mute at her own accord, but she has proven time and time again how strong she is. Strasser also does a good job of making you feel ambivalent about the kids who get kidnapped. I mean, you start thinking that if they hadn't been such jerks, perhaps they wouldn't be in this mess. It gets you thinking. Jane and Rowan both went through so much in such a young age at that. They didn't deserve anything that happened to them. When I read about what Rowan went through I could not hold in anymore. I felt so bad for him cause he did not deserve all that. But they both were so strong after going through such traumatic experiences🥹Hat sich nicht schon ein jeder einmal den Tod eines anderen Menschen gewünscht? Hass, Mobbing, Neid - all dies können Auslöser für diesen irrationalen Wunsch sein und dennoch, manchmal sind die Gefühle, die einen antreiben so stark, dass einfach mal alles raus muss. So auch auf dem Blog "an-G-kozzt", dessen Verfasser mehr als nur einem Menschen den Tod wünscht. Fest steht, der Blogbetreiber ist noch Schüler und in der Schule ergeht es ihm nicht gut, denn das Mobbing ist offensichtlich. Zur Wehr setzt sich der Blogbetreiber über seinen Blog, hetzt gegen die Beliebten und wünscht denen, die ihm Unrecht getan haben, den Tod an den Hals.

Wow, not bad. Definitely what I wanted and expected from Wish You Were Dead, I succeeded in scaring myself shitless! Although I didn't like the beginning of the book because it focused on heroine's crush towards a new boy in school instead of the problem but that changed as the story goes. It got creepy and I liked it. Madison has always liked being part of the "in" crowd, but she hesitates and tries to distance herself when they start bashing the less fortunate students in her affluent high school. I loved the morgue opening and the dark humour, son Bruno, brings to the sense of an unfolding “biblical” drama.

Publication Order of Roy Grace Short Stories/Novellas Books

If, like me, you're already a fan of the Roy Grace novels, the best thing you can do is wait for the next one. Consider this is a YA book, I decided to just cool with the way these teens think. They're annoying, dramatic, gossips here and there, crush on boys and girls, judgmental and all that attitudes associate with teens. I was once a teen, so go figure.

There are no red herrings or false clues to lead anyone in the wrong direction and the clue to the eventual resolution is telegraphed so clearly that you could see it in fog on a dark evening. There is also no tension, as there is never any real prospect of Grace or his wife ending up dead or seriously injured given that this is a franchise detective story.Adapted exclusively for the stage, Wish You Were Dead is the latest thrilling instalment of the Grace Series – the most successful modern-day crime stage franchise, since Agatha Christie. The cover of Wish You Were Dead is absolutely appropriate. The book was creepy, disturbing, yet alluring: after reading a little bit I didn't want to put the book down until I had finished the entire thing. Its main strong point was the kidnapping/serial killer plot line, which was the sole factor that kept me interested through the duration of the novel.

Morton Rhue ist schon bekannt, dass er sich mit dem Thema von den Jugendlichen beschäftig. Wie es ihnen in der Schule geht, was sie durch machen. Manchmal hab ich das Gefühl, er ist in diesem Alter geblieben ;)

What are the Roy Grace books all about?

I was glad after all that this was a standalone, because I could wait a minute longer to find the answers to all the mysteries. I really enjoyed the blog posts of Str-S-d, and the different PoVs, it just gave you an insight on everyone's mind. Also that ending was like a good old horror movie. The Thrillogy by Todd Strasser is a trilogy of standalones, which means you can read whichever story seems to pique your interest, even if it's not the first one. But I highly recommend you read all three of them because these books are amazeballs.
