Reviews

"With this astonishing debut, Elisabeth Thomas has conjured an immersive, intoxicating world that left me as reluctant as its characters were to leave it behind. I inhaled the novel in a single, glorious weekend, but Catherine House and its denizens will linger with me for a very long time."-- Robin Wasserman, New York Times bestselling author of Girls on Fire
"Spellbinding . . . Surreal imagery, spare characterization, and artful, hypnotic prose lend Thomas's tale a delirious air, but at the book's core lies a profound portrait of depression and adolescent turmoil. Fans of Donna Tartt's The Secret History will devour this philosophical fever dream."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"Elisabeth Thomas is a magician of a writer who expertly blends a deeply atmospheric boarding-school story with a futuristic sci-fi mystery in Catherine House. A grown-up, sophisticated version of Lois Duncan's Down a Dark Hall, this dazzling debut will have you turning the pages late into the night."--Angie Kim, bestselling author of Miracle Creek
"A luxurious tale of an ivory-tower institution with sinister secrets, Catherine House is pure Gothic suspense for the 21st century."--Harper's Bazaar, The Best Summer Books to Read in 2020
"Elisabeth Thomas had me mesmerized from the first page. Dreamy and brimming with dread, Catherine House will swallow you whole."--Rory Power, New York Times bestselling author of Wilder Girls
"Thomas's debut novel is a dark, delicious gothic read that hits all the right spots in the best way. If you want a book you can't put down for even a second, this is it."--Forbes, The 10 Most Anticipated Books Of 2020
"For fans of Donna Tartt's The Secret History and Kazuo Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go, Catherine House is a haunting, atmospheric reflection on the discovery of self and others. At times terrifying, always gorgeously captivating, Thomas' debut is one not to be missed, and perhaps to be revisited frequently."--Booklist (starred review)
"Catherine House is a page turner that is equal parts dark, dreamy, and disturbing."--PopSugar, 25 of the Best New Books to Add to Your Reading List This Spring
