Darkly suspenseful and completely unexpected, The Wicked We Have Done is a debut author’s thrilling new take on New Adult romance. Nineteen-year-old Evalyn Ibarra never expected to be an accused killer and experimental prison test subject. A year ago, she was a normal college student. Now she’s been sentenced to a month in the compass room—an advanced prison obstacle course designed by the government to execute justice. If she survives, the world will know she’s innocent. Locked up with nine notorious and potentially psychotic criminals, Evalyn must fight the prison and dismantle her past to stay alive. But the system prized for accuracy appears to be killing at random. She doesn’t plan on making friends. She doesn’t plan on falling in love, either. “Sarah Harian puts a futuristic spin on New Adult.”—RT Book Reviews Sarah Harian received her M.F.A. from Fresno State University. She currently lives in the Sierra Nevadas with her husband and their dog and swears she’ll never live anywhere other than the forested mountains—they’re too inspiring. This is her first novel.

I received a free copy from the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review, thank you! The premise is very promising, although it sounds a lot like The Hunger Games. Young people (criminals) are thrown into a dangerous arena - let's call it a Compass Room - to determine whether they ...
The Wicked We Have Done has been on my radar ever since I saw that the author, Sarah Harian, mentioned that it was inspired by the TV show LOST. Color me interested. If you didn't know, I am and will forever be a huge fan of that TV show. The characters are unforgettable and all of them are incredi...
It’s hard to gauge the insanity levels of others when you’re so screwed up yourself. In terms of premise-outcome ratio, this came out on the side of disappointing. What I liked most about this book was that this had ambition. I saw the intention to be different and break traditions and stereotypes i...
