#BookReview: The Redemption of Morgan Bright by Chris Panatier

ABOUT THIS BOOK:

What would guilt make you do? 

Hadleigh Keene died on the road leading away from Hollyhock Asylum. The reasons are unknown. Her sister Morgan blames herself. A year later with the case still unsolved, Morgan creates a false identity, that of a troubled housewife named Charlotte Turner, and goes inside. 

Morgan quickly discovers that Hollyhock is… not right. She is shaken by the hospital’s peculiar routines and is soon beset by strange episodes. All the while, the persona of Charlotte takes on a life of its own, becoming stronger with each passing day. As her identity begins unraveling, Morgan finds herself tracing Hadleigh’s footsteps and peering into the places they lead.

REVIEW: While I finished this book in three days, it wasn't because it was unputdownable; it was because I was confused and trying to understand what I was reading.

Based on the synopsis, I expected a thriller, but it turned out to be an acid trip horror ghost story with forced pregnancy woven in. This was a bizarre read. Several times, I stopped and went back to the synopsis to see if I had missed something, only to realize that I had indeed finished it and hadn't overlooked anything in the description.

The writing was descriptive, I'll give it that, but that's about all I can praise. If you want a book that will confuse you and leave you wondering what on earth just happened, this is the book for you.
