Fever Dream

Samanta Schweblin

3.7 via Goodreads

A woman is dying in a clinic and a child she does not know is asking her to remember exactly what happened -- the answer unspools across 180 pages without ever becoming fully clear.

Mood Tense & Suspenseful
Pacing Fast-Paced
Complexity Dense & Rewarding

Who This Is For

Best for readers who want to be kept on edge: propulsive, twisty, and hard to put down. This is a book that asks something of you. Dense, layered, and best read slowly. It moves quickly: once you're in, it's hard to stop. Readers who prefer character depth over plot drive may find it thin.

Best Read When

Best read when you're in the mood for something tense and impossible to put down, and a read that's fast and propulsive.
