Redheaded Bookworm: The Dollhouse Asylum by Mary Gray PLUS Giveaway!

A virus that had once been contained has returned, and soon no place will be left untouched by its destruction. But when Cheyenne wakes up in Elysian Fields--a subdivision cut off from the world and its monster-creating virus--she is thrilled to have a chance at survival. At first, Elysian Fields,with its beautiful houses and manicured lawns, is perfect. Teo Richardson, the older man who stole Cheyenne's heart, built it so they could be together. But when Teo tells Cheyenne there are tests that she and seven other couples must pass to be worthy of salvation, Cheyenne begins to question the perfection of his world. The people they were before are gone. Cheyenne is now "Persephone," and each couple has been re-named to reflect the most tragic romances ever told. Everyone is fighting to pass the test, to remain in Elysian Fields. Teo dresses them up, tells them when to move and how to act, and in order to pass the test, they must play along. If they play it right, then they'll be safe. But if they play it wrong, they'll die.

My Review
This book was definitely fresh and exciting. I loved the concept. There were plenty of OMG moments, and although it was creepy it wasn't as creepy as I thought it would have been. But I couldn't put it down. The writing style was amazing. I felt like I was able to "watch" the story play out before my eyes. I really liked the references to the literary characters. It kept me turning the page to see what was going to happen next. The ending was superb. I will be watching this author for more of her works!

I received this book from Spencer Hill Press in exchange for my honest review.

Mary Gray has a fascination with all things creepy. That’s why all her favorite stories usually involve panic attacks and hyperventilating. In real life, she prefers to type away on her computer, ogle over her favorite TV shows, and savor fiction. When she’s not immersed in other worlds, she and her husband get their exercise by chasing after their three children. The Dollhouse Asylum is her first novel.
