Marisha Pessl’s YA Debut and an Awesome Giveaway

in Books on 06/01/18 by Beth Leave a Comment

A bunch of years ago when Boozy Book Club was just a baby, we read one of the best thrillers ever, Night Film by Marisha Pessl. Night Film is not only a great thriller and mystery, but the most interactive and media-immmersive novels ever. There was an app just for the novel that opened up all digital content online – extra content that enhanced the experience and the narrative of the story. It was genius. Marisha Pessl is a genius.

And now she’s at it again with her first Young Adult psychological thriller, Neverworld Wake, which comes out next Tuesday, June 5th. The cool news is, if you preorder it before then, you will get this very cool limited edition poster that contains clues to the EPIC TWIST as well a leather bound journal. But the best part of the pre-order fun: exclusive access to Marisha’s Facebook Group for live chats and giveaways (and I’m going to assume, really interesting interactive bits that make the experience of the novel even better).

Everyone who preorders will get these!! So awesome.

Here’s the official summary:

Once upon a time, back at Darrow-Harker School, Beatrice Hartley and her six best friends were the cool kids, the beautiful ones. Then the shocking death of Jim—their creative genius and Beatrice’s boyfriend—changed everything.

One year after graduation, Beatrice is returning to Wincroft—the seaside estate where they spent so many nights sharing secrets, crushes, plans to change the world—hoping she’ll get to the bottom of the dark questions gnawing at her about Jim’s death. But as the night plays out in a haze of stilted jokes and unfathomable silence, Beatrice senses she’s never going to know what really happened.

Then a mysterious man knocks on the door. Blithely, he announces the impossible: time for them has become stuck, snagged on a splinter that can only be removed if the former friends make the harshest of decisions. Now Beatrice has one last shot at answers–and at life.
