Recommended for readers who enjoy thrillers with elements of horror and romance." --School Library Journal "The novel's characters--particularly Cam and River--are sturdy and distinctive enough to keep readers persuaded as the story line builds from sly commentary on reality television to trippy exploration of reality's very nature."--Publishers Weekly "An intriguing, slow-burn mystery that takes its time developing the plot." --Booklist --
