Catherine, a lover of social media, unemployed and drifting is finally driven to get a job as a way of avoiding another unpleasant evening meeting with her Mum where she would be presented with her failure following items for discussion, and quite possibly, a list!The first of Catherines lists appeared when she was aged five:1.Make three new friends at school and ask them if theyd like to come over to play some time2.Write a story for me.3.Put your dirty clothes in the washing basket in theA quick easy read. Highly recommended even if you don't read thrillers like myself. I just hope this doesn't really go on in care homes!
To be honest I don't even know why I decided to read this book... Having read The Cry before, I HATED IT. Thought this might be different. Yes it was, in a bad way. Worse.It started off really good and captivating. There were two narratives, Catherine and Rose. Rose has dementia which causes her to be confused and not taken seriously by the people around her. Catherine is a narcissistic shallow little girl whom I despised right from the beginning.Everything was sinister and strange. Why is there
A young woman starts working in a care home but not everything is as it seems.The big reveal at the end was obvious about a third of the way through the book. The writing / pace were reasonable but the story was a bit thin plus the main young character and many of the 'villains' were a bit one dimensional. Some of the basic plot points didn't ring true.
3.5 stars I read the synopsis of this novel and knew I had to get my hands on it because it was just so intriguing. This is a first by Fitzgerald for me and I always enjoy discovering authors that I've never read before. 82 year old Rose has dementia but she tells newbie caretaker Catherine that something bad is going in this place. In Room 7. But Room 7 is always locked whenever Catherine tries to enter? Why is this? Is something sinister going on in this hospital or is Rose's dementia making

LINK UPDATED23-year-old Catherine is cute:He hired me because Im cute. I dont have a problem admitting Im cute. I hate people who say Oh, Im ugly, or Im so fat, when theyre clearly not. Im slim and athletic. I have blonde hair, blue eyes, and Im cute as a button, damnit. Ask the seven boyfriends I was with for less than six weeks; theyll agree. Dont ask the three I stayed with longer (never more than three months); theyll tell you Im a vacuous narcissist.She hates old people:I didnt want to see
