Content descriptions
| Summary, etc.: | A visit to a private amusement park is the trip of a lifetime for a group of teen influencers, until they learn that getting off the island alive is not part of the plan. Jagged Island: a private amusement park for the very rich-- or the very influential. Liam, James, Will, Ava, Harper, and Paisley are social media influencers with millions of followers. They have been invited for an exclusive weekend before the park opens: they'll make posts and videos for their channels and report every second of their VIP treatment. The resort is even better than they'd imagined: the hotel rooms are unreal, the park's themed rides are incredible, and the island is hauntingly beautiful. They're given a jam-packed itinerary for the weekend. There's only one thing missing from their schedule: getting off the island alive. - adapted from back cover |

A handful of teen social-media influencers are invited to a preview weekend at a billionaire's theme park on a secluded, man-made island. What could go wrong? When Paisley, a popular true-crime influencer, gets an invitation to an exclusive preview of Jagged Island, a resort and macabre amusement park designed by "rich dude" Malcolm Wyatt, she's convinced the content she'll share during this luxury experience will send her follower count into the stratosphere. Instead, she is forced to put everything she's learned from her true-crime obsession to the test as a masked killer stalks the group around the island, killing them one by one. The unique backdrop of a gothic theme park on an artificially designed island elevates this somewhat standard cat-and-mouse whodunnit to an intriguing and fast-paced thriller. Part Agatha Christie, part Fyre Fest, and part Glass Onion, Preston's novel is good fun for fans of quick thrillers. For a similar premise, hand readers Kate M. Williams' Never Coming Home (2022). Grades 7-12. Copyright 2023 Booklist Reviews.
