The whole-vibe is quite cultish and I feel like Wrobel did a nice job with that.

This Might Hurt by Stephanie Wrobel | Waterstones

Let’s discuss my feelings about this book: I loved the fast, intriguing beginning and I enjoyed the blood freezing, WTH conclusion. But I think book’s direction got wavered a little bit. The different timelines of multiple POVs make you confused. This kind of story telling is smart but it can be also too complex for you to focus on the main conflicts and big revelations. Expertly paced, hugely unsettling, and perfectly dark, you’ll be gripped in this clever exploration of fear and vulnerability right until the flawless ending—one you’ll most certainly want to talk about. Overall, this is a novel that is very hard to put down. Stephanie Wrobel has a way of pulling you into a narrative and not letting you go, she is a very talented author in my opinion. This one really makes you think especially about the human spirit and it’s one I’ll certainly keep reflecting on.

Dark, disturbing, and entertaining at times, I was enthralled by several of the characters, yet some of the storyline dragged a bit and left me a tad confused. Though I didn’t quite love this book as much as Stephanie Wrobel’s Darling Rose Gold, I enjoyed This Might Hurt and look forward to her next book. This Might Hurt has all the ingredients of a great mystery. Fun, creepy and incredibly fast-paced. A ridiculously wry and absorbing thriller' AMY STUART Wisewood is a seemingly innocuous “retreat” on a deserted island, claiming to “completely transform” its guests after their six month stay. Upon further investigation, of course, it is quite obvious that Wisewood is a cult, with a manipulative leader and obliging followers. “This Might Hurt” not only explores the cult life, but also provides the reader with the history of Rebecca, its founder and leader, which was completely engaging for me and highly entertaining. Of course, the relationship between Kit and Natalie was dysfunctional, as a result of parental neglect and abuse, which leaves Kit wide open to be taken under Rebecca’s wing and groomed to be part of the Wisewood community. I got off on the wrong foot with This Might Hurt by not realizing that there were three narrators for this story. There are various timelines throughout the book and the narration of sisters, Natalie and Kit. Then there is another narrator, unnamed until later in the book, whose timeline I didn't understand until towards the end of the story. I'm not sure if understanding things sooner would have helped me enjoy the story more but I know my confusion kept me from caring as much about Natalie and Kit.

My expectations were strangely met in a way I was not expecting. I just read this entire novel this afternoon, so I'm going to need a moment to process what I just read. What in the world did I just read???? This Might Hurt a Bit was so hilarious yet so sad that I couldn't wrap my head around it. I felt so bad for Kirby, not only for the worst thing that ever happened to him, but also for his hilariously terrible day. I mean, this story is so crazy that there's no way that this could be reality, but at the same time, it could be. This Might Hurt a Bit is like one of those crazy high school movies you might watch on Disney Channel, but with the language and the drugs. Needless to say, I did enjoy This Might Hurt a Bit exponentially more than I expected to. Read-Alikes are one of the many benefits of membership.

Retrieved 24 June 2021. A sharp and intriguing look at reinvention and self-empowerment. This Might Hurt follows three women, each confronting her own set of fears, with revelations and consequences that are unexpected and chilling, right up to the jaw-dropping finale. Dark and twisted in all the right places, I did not want to stop reading this book. Like many other people, I adored the darkness of Darling Rose Gold. It was twisty in the best possible way for me. This one, unfortunately, doesn't even come close to that.
