Camp Summerween
Eight girls. Seven days. One island that never lets you leave.
Every summer, the ferry brings eight girls to Blackwood Island. They come for the seclusion, the pines, and the promise of a week away from the world. But Blackwood has a darker reputation, one whispered in the halls of nearby towns and scrubbed from the camp’s official records.
The island requires a remainder.
Seraphina knows the risks, but she’s not here for the campfire songs or the lakefront views. She’s here to uncover the truth about the girls who vanished before her, including the one whose ghost still haunts her dreams. But the island is a predatory labyrinth of shifting woods and a claustrophobic manor, and she isn’t the only one hunting for answers.
Enter the camp’s enigmatic overseer, a man whose presence is as cold as the lake and whose eyes seem to hold the island’s bloodiest secrets. He’s meant to be her enemy, the gatekeeper of a cycle that demands a sacrifice. Instead, he becomes the only thing standing between Seraphina and the encroaching forest.
As the week progresses, the boundaries between desire and danger dissolve. In the suffocating dark of the woods, Seraphina discovers that the most lethal secret isn't what the island does to its visitors, it’s what the visitors are willing to do to survive.
The ferry leaves in seven days. By then, the island will have its remainder. Will it be her?

Wow. This book was so fun to read. If you love halloween this is a great book to get you in the halloween spirit. It gave goosebumps vibes but a bit more creepy. Im definitely going to be reading this book every summer. The world building in this book was top tier. It got me totally immersed in its world. Ever detail made it feel so real.
