I generally have issues with books that are about people stranded on an island. However, the fact that "Lillian Linden is a liar." intrigued me. I started reading in December, and after downloading the audio, I was able to finish it. I fully believe that if my life were calmer, I would have finished this book much sooner. It was fantastic. The descriptions were vivid and brought many pictures to my mind and tastes to my mouth. The author worked off of all the characters senses and brought the sensations to me. 
 Here is an example: "I squeeze my eyes shut, trying to force those thoughts away, the ravaging thoughts that haunt me. It takes a deep roll of thunder that vibrates my bones to make the thoughts scatter like rats into the dark corners of my subconscious."

 We have all been there, right? When you have thoughts that are encroaching on you and all you want is for them to go away. You try hard to make them just vanish for a time. Sometimes we get frustrated then out of nowhere something makes them all recede. I have never been on a deserted island, but I was able to relate to the characters in this book. My heart ached for them when they were sad. I cried for their losses. I laughed with them during their jokes. My tummy danced with butterflies as they talked to the ones they loved. 
 This book was fantastic, a few details seems off to me, but nothing major. It has gone on my list of book to buy the hard copy of. I absolutely recommend it. At this time, Wreckage by Emily Bleeker is part of the Kindle Unlimited program. You can get the audio and the ebook for free.
