Synopsis

They say everything is fun and games until someone gets hurt. Well, someone did—and now the game has changed…Emily Bennett works as a therapist in Pennsylvania, helping children overcome their troubled pasts—even as she struggles to forget her own. Once upon a time, Emily was part of a middle school clique called the Harpies—six popular girls who bullied the new girl to her breaking point.The Harpies took a blood oath: never tell a soul what they did to Grace Farmer.Now, fourteen years later, it seems karma has caught up to them when one member of that vicious circle commits suicide. But when a second Harpy is discovered dead shortly after, also from apparent suicide, the deaths start to look suspicious. And when Emily starts seeing a woman who looks a lot like Grace Farmer lurking in the shadows, she’s forced to wonder: Is Grace back for revenge? Or is Emily’s guilt driving her mad?Sticks and stones may break your bones, but the Harpies are about to find out just how much words can hurt you.

3.15✨ Too many unbelievable situations and events. Lorry-load of NSFW Language. Well when I completed this book I had similar feelings like His and hers like it was good but it was like rather unbelievable and full of chance events.

2.5 ⭐ because I have difficulty enjoying a book that relies on shock value instead of realism or convincing writing. Girl Gone Mad has a compelling and dark storyline. It also deals with some very heavy subjects. Unfortunately there are too many plot holes and corny, stereotypical characters for me......more


Quotes

“This was a great look into the effects of bullying, but also into how little we understand ourselves and others…the author did a great job of showing the humanity of even the bullies, as there are always reasons why people do the things that they do. That doesn’t excuse what they did, but when you can understand that, it becomes easier to help them. I recommend you check it out.” Manhattan Book Review

“A deftly penned and impressively original suspense thriller of a read from beginning to end.” —Midwest Book Review

“Old grudges resurface with a vengeance in Avery Bishop’s Girl Gone Mad, where former it girls are dying off one by one. This twisty tale of bullying, toxic teenage friendships, suspicions, and obsessions will keep you glued to the pages all the way to the unexpected ending. An addictive debut where revenge isn’t as neat or pretty as it seems.” —Kimberly Belle, internationally bestselling author of Dear Wife
