For me, it seemed like Wroebel was trying to infuse a twist into the narrative with the unknown narrator, but when it was revealed, it was just rather ho-hum.
There is one narrator whose identity is unknown for quite some time. There are several narrators and several parts to this book. The way the events unfold is a little confusing. However, what makes this stand out is that the cult leader is a very intriguing woman.
It’s your typical cult leader/devotee story with a concerned family member trying to rescue the devotee. This Might Hurt is about a cult focused on overcoming fear, its mysterious leader, and the woman in her thrall. But she's about to learn that Wisewood won't let either of them go without a fight. Panicked, Natalie hurries north to come clean to her sister and bring her home. Six months later Natalie receives a menacing e-mail from a Wisewood account threatening to reveal the secret she's been keeping from Kit. Natalie thinks it's a bad idea, but Kit has had enough of her sister's cynicism and voluntarily disappears off the grid. But the rules are for a good reason: to keep guests focused on achieving true fearlessness so they can become their Maximized Selves. During this time, they're prohibited from contact with the rest of the world-no Internet, no phones, no exceptions. On a private island off the coast of Maine, Wisewood's guests commit to six-month stays. She told Natalie she was sure there was something more out there.
The last time they spoke, Kit was slogging from mundane workdays to obligatory happy hours to crying in the shower about their dead mother. Natalie Collins hasn't heard from her sister in more than half a year. We'll keep your secrets if you keep ours.
From the USA Today bestselling and Edgar-nominated author of Darling Rose Gold comes a dark, thrilling novel about two sisters-one trapped in the clutches of a cult, the other in a web of her own lies.
