Helpful Score: 2
A quick read is exactly what Asylum was for me. The writing flowed. It's a bit reminiscent of R.L. Stine for us 90's kids. It's creepy, not Stephen King scary. Creepy enough for this (almost) 29 year old to jump at night when I hear my stairs creak!
The main character of the story is Daniel Crawford; a typical teenager dealing with the usual adolescent tribulations of fitting in, making friends, and the occasional break out. The setting: New Hampshire College Summer Prep school hosted at Brookline; a retired mental health facility and historical site. Perfect place for college prep, right? Dan's inner dialogues usually consist of wondering if he'll make friends. Upon arrival, he meets his roomate, Felix, and finds an old photograph in his desk. It's a man with his eyes scribbled out. Felix immediately tells Dan that an office in the closed off section is unlocked, and would be an awesome place to explore. Dun dun dun!
