8-7-25: My 52nd finished book of 2025! Think Love Island kind of meets The Hunger Games but not quite. Not as violent but just as cutthroat. Lily is the first to arrive. She just wakes up there. Then the other 9 girls and 3 days later 9 boys arrive from the desert. They compete for prizes they can use around the compound but also do personal tasks for their own stuff. As people are banished, Lily must figure out how to be the last one standing.
