Set in an experimental boarding school for teens dealing with trauma, The Castle School (for Troubled Girls) follows one girl's journey through grief and her eleven classmates, each with their own issues, that help her find a path to healing. Perfect for fans of Kathleen Glasgow, this atmospheric, emotional tear-jerker will leave you speechless.

When Moira Dreyfuss's parents announce that they're sending her to an all-girls boarding school deep in the Maine woods, Moira isn't fooled. She knows her parents are punishing her; she's been too much trouble since her best friend, Nathan, died??and for a while before that. At the Castle School, isolated from the rest of the world, Moira will be expected to pour her heart out to the odd headmaster, Dr. Prince. But she isn't interested in getting over Nathan's death or befriending her fellow students.

On her first night there, Moira hears distant music. On her second, she discovers the lock on her window is broken. On her third, she and her roommate venture outside...and learn that they're not so isolated after all. There's another, very different, Castle School nearby??this one filled with boys whose parents sent them away, too.

Moira is convinced that the Castle Schools and the doctors who run them are hiding something. But exploring the schools will force Moira to confront her overwhelming grief??and the real reasons her parents sent her away.

"Hooked me from page one. I couldn't stop reading until I had every single answer."??Francesca Zappia, author of Eliza and Her Monsters

* I got this book for review from the publisher for my honest thoughts*

I thought this book was really unique read. I think this book reminds me so much of a book like recovery road or the older t.v show higher ground. I LIKED how this book tackled so many issues that young people face today like drugs, alcohol cutting but also a massive focus on grief and PTSD. This book also focused on the lost of friendship and that really struck. me. I really did like the chapters the POV of the girls in this story. The mystery did not wow me, but I really enjoyed the read! ( )

Moira is grieving her best friend's death. When Nathan died, she didn't want to go on without him. She cut school, visited his gravesite, ignored her own family. Her parents got so desperate, they sent her to a school in Maine, hoping that this would help. The school is run by Dr. Prince, and only has 12 students-all girls. Moira is sure that Dr Prince is running some sort of experiment on the girls, who all have some reason for being there: cutting, anorexia, running away, stealing. addiction, etc.
Throughout the course of her stay, Moira experiences things she didn't expect, making friends with the other girls, caring for other people. She initially sees this as cheating on Nathan. Moira's therapy sessions with Dr. Prince offer an insight into grief and how we deal with it.
This is a YA novel that is a moving story about grief. It really gave me a lot to think about.
I received a free copy of this book through the Sourcebooks Early Reads program. All opinions are my own. ( )
