Losing Gemma Horror Book Review

This is the story of Gemma and me: how I lost her, I suppose. I don’t usually tell it to anyone but myself;
  I save it for the darkest moments. 

Losing Gemma is one of the hottest fiction debuts of the summer. A first novel being compared to Alex Garland’s breakthrough novel, The Beach-except the backpacking heroes are girls. And it’s already being translated into nine languages. 

  What makes Losing Gemma truly unforgettable, however, is the read itself; it’s as gripping and suspenseful as it is psychologically rich. Two young women have gone looking for adventure, backpacking through India-but only one returns. The other one believes it’s all her fault. And the mystery behind what really happened during their fateful visit to a secluded shrine compels the reader forward to a page-turning conclusion that’s shocking, strange, and haunting.
