Praise for Island Witch
“Every once in a while, a book comes along that drops you into another world and takes you places you never could imagine. This is that book. An astounding accomplishment!”
—R. L. Stine, author of Goosebumps and Fear Street
“Tense and twisty, Island Witch is a fierce exploration of a young woman’s rage and two kinds of demons: the ones that thrive in the darkness of the jungle, yes, but also those that lurk under the skin of people you thought you could trust. This is razor-sharp anticolonial historical horror with the heart of a thriller, and it kept me feverishly turning the pages long into the night.”
—Isabel Cañas, USA Today bestselling author of Vampires of El Norte
“Raw, brutal, and beautiful, Jayatissa pulls no punches in Island Witch, both a devastating historical retelling of a reviled demoness from Sri Lankan lore and a thrilling murder mystery. In this haunting, rage-filled story, Jayatissa gives voice to feared women, women at the margins, women for whom villainy is the closest thing to justice. A stunning achievement.”
—Ashley Winstead, author of Midnight is the Darkest Hour
Praise for You’re Invited
“Filled with kaleidoscope twists and turns I could not turn the pages fast enough in this delicious follow-up to My Sweet Girl. When Amaya receives an invitation to the lavish Sri Lankan wedding of her ex-boyfriend and her ex-best friend, her decision to attend is only the first mystery at the heart of this unputdownable thriller.”
—Greer Hendricks, #1 New York Times bestselling co-author of The Wife Between Us
“Whip smart and expertly plotted with perfectly arranged clues and an explosive finale…will have readers guessing who they can trust and who the real villain is in this wickedly good thriller.”
—Mary Kubica, New York Times bestselling author of Local Woman Missing
“You’re Invited reads like Crazy Rich Asians’ deranged, bloodthirsty sister—slick, twisted, and relentlessly juicy. Amanda Jayatissa’s sophomore thriller is both a dizzying hall-of-mirrors pageturner and a cutting examination of privilege, power, and complex female friendships. I couldn’t put it down.”
—Andrea Bartz, New York Times bestselling author or We Were Never Here and The Herd
“Amanda Jayatissa’s atmospheric novel careens toward a sinister ending that has readers questioning everything and reminds us to keep our enemies close – but our friends and family closer.”
—NPR
“This story is deliciously messy…Buckle up. This is a psychological thriller with corkscrew-tight twists and surprising depth as the novel explores issues of class, identity, and friendship.”
—Oprah Daily
