Representaion To Books Asylum (The Asylum Trilogy #1)
"No-one ever leaves Lakehurst. The staff, the patients, the ghosts... Once you're here, you're stuck forever."After shooting her little brother dead, Annie Radford is sent to Lakehurst psychiatric hospital for assessment. Hearing voices in her head, Annie is forced to undergo experimental new treatments devised by a mysterious old man who lives in the hospital's attic. It soon becomes clear that the hospital's staff, led by the vicious Nurse Winter, are hiding something horrific at Lakehurst.
As Annie struggles to survive the hospital, she learns more about Nurse Winter's own story. Once a promising young medical student, Kirsten Winter also heard voices in her head. Voices that traveled a long way to reach her. Voices that have a plan of their own. Voices that will stop at nothing to get what they want.
What kind of signals are being transmitted from the basement of the hospital? Who is the old man in the attic? Why are living human brains kept in jars? And what is the dark secret that lurks at the heart of the hospital?

Just whoah.... strange, macabre, weird - and this is just number one.I absolutely loved this series. It took a couple chapters to really get into the story, but once I did, I was hooked. It took two days for me to read the first book, but one day for the other seven. A definite page turner! I finished this novel almost a month ago and still think about it all the time. It reminded me of the TV show American Horror Story: Asylum. Although, I read this before the season started. I haven't started Ms. Cross's other works (I purchased them just after finishing this
The ASYLUM series by Amy Cross reminds me of writing workshops. This is not a good thing. As a paying reader, and not a workshop compatriot, I do not expect to be bludgeoned by incorrect punctuation, missing words and repetitive scenes. I resisted my workshopping urges, though, until the last third of the book. Frustration sent me to start marking the text, not only because the mistakes were ruining what could have been an interesting story, but because I wanted to see if maybe I was inflating
I really enjoyed this series. As many have said, I liked being able to read all the books back to back. The plot jumped around a bit but I feel that gave more depth to the story. It wasn't confusing at all and you got to see a little bit of the past surrounding some of the key characters. I am facinated by old asylum's and I found the descriptions of Lakehurst and the "special treatment" to be very intriguing. This is the first I have read of Amy Cross but I will be seeking out her other works.
Good, but silly in placesI read this book over a few days, it did keep me wanting to see where it was going and unable to put it down. But, once the end came it was a little silly, but I'm still glad it read it and will read the next........Meds.
Wow. This was one wild ride. Every time I got a lock on the story, the 'real' story was pushed further out. Like layers to an onion, I kept finding more beneath the previous stories.Without giving away any of the twists (and their are many twist in here) I will caution readers that this book is the compilation of eight mini-stories which told together make up a larger storyline.Readers need to pay attention to when the next book starts if they are not to fall behind. Also, if you want to figure
Very Very disturbing and I loved it☠👻
