13 Minutes: The twisty turny YA psychological thriller you will not be able to put down
Autor Sarah Pinboroughen Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 iul 2016
Subliniem de la primele pagini absurdul unei situații care pare desprinsă dintr-un coșmar: cum este posibil să fii mort timp de 13 minute și să te întorci pentru a descoperi că cei mai apropiați prieteni ar putea fi, de fapt, călăii tăi? În 13 Minutes, Sarah Pinborough construiește o intrigă tensionată în care granița dintre loialitate și trădare devine aproape invizibilă. Remarcăm curajul autoarei de a aborda realitatea brută și adesea toxică a relațiilor dintre adolescente, transformând un simplu mister într-o analiză psihologică profundă a puterii și manipulării. Stilul este alert, integrând firesc elemente ale vieții digitale moderne — de la mesaje pe telefon la postări pe Facebook — care accelerează ritmul lecturii. Copiii și adolescenții care au iubit All the Best Liars vor găsi aici aceeași obsesie și manipulare între prietene, însă într-un context mult mai întunecat și imprevizibil. Spre deosebire de alte lucrări ale sale, precum Behind Her Eyes, unde elementul supranatural joacă un rol cheie, aici Sarah Pinborough mizează pe suspansul pur uman și pe nesiguranța naratorului. Este o explorare a modului în care adevărul poate fi modelat de frică, plasând cititorul într-o poziție de detectiv care trebuie să cearnă printre amintirile fragmentate ale unei fete care nu știe în cine să mai aibă încredere.

Recenzii
An unsettling psychological thriller, the book plunges you into the frankly scary world of teenage girls
A must-read for fans of Megan Abbott, and fans of TV shows like Broadchurch. Very highly recommended, this is an addictive, must-read. Excellent. I can't wait for Pinborough's next novel.
a highly dramatic and convincing thriller
13 Minutes is another fantastic demonstration of Sarah Pinborough's gifts for telling an enthralling tale. 9/10
The ending was typically haunting and overall this was, well, just damn terrific. One of my favourites of the year
For a wonderful, absorbing crime thriller set against the backdrop of teenage menace and melodrama, you need not look further
This is an exceptional, contemporary, thoughtprovoking thriller from an award-winning novelist.
13 Minutes is an outstanding novel, one you absolutely shouldn't miss! I can already say for sure that this will be in my top reads of this year, if not the very top. I cannot recommend it highly enough
13 Minutes is a carefully crafted thriller which is utterly absorbing and makes you think twice about the teenagers in your life...
Overall 13 Minutes is an unmissable read for lovers of gritty, thrilling YA fiction.
Good characters, good plot, good pace GOOD BOOK! Do check it out.
This dark psychological thriller delves into a world where popularity and appearances are as important as life or death. The characters are realistically flawed, from beautiful, selfish Tasha to creative, insecure Becca. The tale twists through police reports, diary entries, psychologist evaluations and accounts from both protagonists, allowing readers brief glimpses of the truth before the exciting finale. Highly recommended.
The book's evocation of the dark world of secondary school, with all its petty betrayals, casual cruelties and toxic friendships, is painfully spot on
there is no holding back from the full gamut of sex, drugs and rock and roll. It is a dark and nasty tale of jealously and manipulation...the characters are intriguingly flawed, the narrative tension bow-twangingly tight and there's an absolute belter of a twist
an intricately plotted, fast-paced crime story...Mean Girls meets Donna Tartt's The Secret History for the Instagram age
13 Minutes is a treat to read from start to finish and, without doubt, is a Young Adult novel that should be read and enjoyed by anyone, of all ages. An early contender for a place on my list of 2016's top books.
13 Minutes is being pencilled in for my top five books of 2016 - why let the youngsters have all the best tales?
a fascinating exploration into what can happen when friendships turn toxic and a startlingly insightful look into the inscrutable world of teenagers with a dark supernatural twist. It is a grim reminder that anyone who says school days are the best of your life has probably forgotten what they were like. 13 Minutes is a darker, smarter Heathers, for the Twitter generation.
sophisticated and twisty enough to please adults of all ages
Perspective is everything in this clever tale.
