LitPick Review
Trevor enlists Jules in his plan to make a profit from the suicides of frequent visitors of a depression chat room. Jules makes a pact with each victim to commit the act together. Jules fakes it, and Trevor swoops in to make off with the valuables. Everything goes as planned until she begins to fall in love with Gabe, their seventh potential victim. Now, Jules faces the most important decision she has yet.
Opinion:
Vander Ark's novel is filled with dark romance and twists and turns that keep the reader turning the pages. Unlike most young adult novels with mature content that can be overlooked to enjoy the book, the content of Lighthouse Nights cannot. It is as much a part of the book as the setting and characters. I would definitely recommend this book to others who enjoy realistic novels, but I advise caution because it may be triggering to some.
