The Fever:
"An unforgettable inquiry into the emotional lives of young
people... It's also a powerful portrait of community, with interesting
echoes of The Crucible...Abbott may be on her way to becoming a major writer."--Booklist, Starred Review
"Thrilling...a gripping story fueled by razor-sharp treachery, jealousy, hormones, and the insecurities of teenage girls."
--Publishers Weekly
"The book to beat… in the "Is it the next 'Gone Girl'?" sweepstakes."
–Janet Maslin, New York Times
"The lives of teenage girls are dangerous, beautiful things in Abbott's stunning novel... Abbott expertly ratchet[s] up the suspense...nothing should be taken at fact value."
—Kirkus, Starred Review

I'll admit to dreading this one because it sounds like she upped the creepiness factor.
I'll read the novel of course, but I got hooked into the last two, Dare and End, and dreaded what was going to happen to those characters.
I found it less worrisome than the last two although it's pretty compelling.
It's all academic until June 7th for me anyway.
I ordered it from Powell's.
Thanks, Richard.Hope you enjoy it.
It's on order, though if I listened to critics "the next GONE GIRL" would certainly not entice my interest.
Hope she sells a ton of books.

I think they just mean it will be a summer read. Its plot bears no resemblance to GONE GIRL.
I knew that. It just reminds me of all the lazy movie critics who, rather than abother thinking about what they're saying, go with such deep insights as "the feel-good movie of the summer" or "this years NOTEBOOK."
