***Thanks to NetGalley for providing me a complimentary copy of TELL ME WHEN YOU FEEL SOMETHING by Vicki Grant in exchange for my honest review.***
After taking pills at a party, Vivienne lies in a coma. Her best friend Davida swears Viv never drinks or uses drugs. BFFs know everything about each other, even if they’ve only been friends for five weeks. Vic’s and Davida’s boyfriends both suspects, are questioned by police as are those from her part-time job as a Simulated Patient SP at a medical school.
The SP program drew me to TELL ME WHEN YOU FEEL SOMETHING. Living near a number of medical schools, I was familiar with programs where people role played illnesses for student diagnosis. I’d never known programs to have the cosmetic application and the extent of physical preparation Vicki Grant described, but that added to the interest of the SP job.
Grant created an interesting cast of minor characters and family set ups, which added dimension to the story. TELL ME WHEN YOU FEEL SOMETHING alternated timelines and points of view. I knew early on many were unreliable narrators, how inaccurate I was unsure. Most of my theories turned out to be wrong.
TELL ME SOMETHING is a unique, interesting mystery that will appear to a wide variety of readers.
