My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a young adult thriller that has two short stories about two very different girls. I have read a few books by this author and i have liked them all and this is no different. I was kept on the edge of my seat because of the twists and the turns of these books. I was turning page after page to see what would happen next. Tess is a girl with schizophrenia who loves someone that doesn’t lover her back. We see the how her life begins to spirals and then how she works to get it back under control. The other main character is Evelyn. She seems to be perfect and loved by everyone. But just because something seem perfect and happy doesn’t mean its all sunshine and butterflies. It just might be all twisted and we shall see who will see the truth in the end.
I thought these two stories were good and i am looking forward to reading more by this author in the future.
Happy Reading!

Every Last Psycho: A Collection of Two Novellas by Zarina Macha was a super emotional read. I felt sad, frustrated, and drained after reading. I was taken on an emotional journey and felt understanding. The expression of do a mile in their shoes means something different now. At the end of it I loved the stories and as difficult as it was, I did enjoy the ride. It was definitely a book that addee value.

I can honestly say, I did enjoy both of these stories. I was caught from the very first page and couldn’t stop reading either of them. They both took me on quite an emotional rollar coaster with darker themes. If you like darker plots, themes, and stories, this might be for you! It will definitely get you thinking, and was personally eye opening for me in several ways. I am excited to see where Zarina takes her stories in the future.

Every Last Psycho: A Collection of Two Novellas by Zarina Macha was an intriguing and heart wrenching read. I eagerly read this book struggling to put it down. The storyline was organized and detailed. I found myself pulled into the lives of the main characters easily as I read. I enjoyed the educational tid bits about various psychological disorders in the storyline. These two stories were excellent and I thoroughly enjoyed them. I highly recommend this book.

This being my first read from this author I wasn’t sure what to expect, but what I expected was definitely not this. These two novella’s face some really deep and dark issues, issue that you begin to understand as what others go through in everyday life. Following Tess’s story have a lot of ups and downs, had my emotions all out of whack and really had me hoping Tess would find a way out of her downward spiral.
Now Evelyn’s story takes an even darker turn, and as bad as its to say I was compelled to carry on reading this read it was dark but I kept turning the pages wanting to find out how Evelyn’s journey will turn out. For this being two novellas in one you definitely was not lacking on two amazing storylines and incredible characters. I highly recommend this read, it may not be for all but if you want a read that’s dark but totally compelling then this is the book for you!

This book has 2 stories inside.

The first one called Every Last Thought is a real hard story to read. It contains themes such as mental illness, rape and drug and alcohol abuse. Although these are hard subject to read about it has been written with respect. We follow the journey of Tess. A teenage girl who suffers from schizophrena. She struggles with life as the voices in her head make life hard. So she uses alcohol and eventually drugs to cope with it. Its a heartbreaking and also an eye opening story.

The second story is called Psycho Girl. This is a different type of story about a girl called Evelyn who is a psychopath. On the outside she is a normal girl who has everything she wants. Great grades, a perfect boyfriend, good friends. However she hides a secret from everyone. She doesnt care. She has no feelings or thoughts for anyone but herself and what Evelyn wants she gets one way or another. Her life progresses well. People see her as driven and determined but when she gets rejected by the college she wants to go to she snaps and the true Evelyn comes to light. It is a very chilling story and scary to think that there are people living like that, happy, normal lives until something makes them snap.

4 stars!
Very interesting read. Not really my scene, but I was easily pulled into both stories. Both stories are very rough in that they include some sensitive topics such as mental illness, rape, drugs and murder.
My heart was completely broken for Tess. The first time it broke was when she lost her brother and because of it turned into a schizophrenic. The second time my heart broke was when she confessed her feelings to Ed and was regretfully denied. The third time my heart broke was when she turned to hard drugs to cope with all her pain and the voices she hears. I can’t help but wonder how many people out there are dealing with schizophrenia and aren’t getting the help they need, and could end up in a similar situation to Tess.
The second story was a bit different for me than the first. Evelyn, I could not stand her. The fact that she goes completely insane because she doesn’t get into her dream school but her rival and the girl she is trying to sabotage not to get in, does, sends her into a mental breakdown. She turns into the true version of herself which is very ugly.
Overall a great set of 2 stories that touch on mental illness and both stories were very well written. I will definitely have to check out more by this author.

** Contains graphic depictions of violence, sexual assault and drug abuse. Some material may be unsuitable for minors and thus should proceed with caution**
This is a first time author for me. This book has two separate novella’s. The first has Tess as our lead female character- she’s been diagnosed with schizophrenia triggered by the death of her twin brother Stanley. This is her story about dealing with her diagnoses and how she copes with things, which really isn’t a healthy way to cope, but I’m not schizophrenic so I don’t know how horrible day to day life would be. The second story has Evelyn as our main lead female character. She’s everything every girl wants to be- confident, beautiful, popular and rich. However, on the inside, she’s empty without any feeling and cruelty hiding under the surface. Will her friends and family notice before it’s too late? Both of these stories were decently told, with originality in the way the book unfolded.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Every Last Psycho by Zarina Macha a differing pair of four-star reads. This was a good collection, but they could have done with being longer, but I always feel that with shorter stories. This consists of Every Last Thought and Psycho Girl and I think in my eyes Psycho Girl was the stronger story, it just seemed to flow more naturally. Every Last Thought covers some very dark topics and shines a light on some that we don’t often see, the light shining I liked, but the dark topics I didn’t enjoy the way they were dealt with. I am sure some will see it differently, but If that was done differently this could have been a good story. Psycho Girl was a good story when you got into it, but I nearly couldn’t as the main character is a horrible person, I never write that and I am so anti-violence, but if I met her in the street and she spoke like she does in the story I would struggle to hold my temper, but the author got a very strong emotional response from me and that makes this the better story for me.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first book I have read from this author and she got my full attention. I absolutely love a good psycho thriller but this author exceeded all my expectations. This book contains two novellas of two very different teenage girls. You will have a love and hate relationship with these girls but it will definitely open your eyes. I was so addicted to these stories I read them both in one day. I can’t wait to see what this author will write next.

The first novella was about a teen girl named Tess. She is dealing with Schizophrenia brought by her brother’s death. Tess has a hard time making friends because she is a weird girl. She has two best friends Ed and Monique. Tess loves her friends and one day she tells Ed that she really loves him. Will Tess get what she is looking for or will something else come along?

The second novella is about a college girl named Evelyn. She is very confident and always gets her way. Evelyn is in complete shock when she finds out that she doesn’t get her way in something that really matters. She ends up doing some horrible things to herself and others. Will someone stop her before it’s too late?

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a set of two novellas from Zarina Macha whom I had read before and was certain I needed to read these as well as soon as I saw them. I have to start off with the major trigger warning I think just needs to be said. These books are not for the faint of heart when it comes to topics such as, substance abuse, rape, severe mental illness, and many more heavy topics that come with those together as well. The concepts and other literary and also other media forms that were pulled in and used were unique and I enjoyed the aspect. I will say overall these two novellas lacked a bit for me. Not in content because that is for sure there but in the way that I wanted to connect with these two women and really feel the emotion and the turbulence that the author wanted to achieve. I struggled to hear their voice and have sympathy for them when these books would have done significantly better to me to have had some sympathetic and approachability to them. I overall could get behind Tess more so in ‘Every Last Thought’. I feel as if she had the most potential for me to relate to. These stories do provoke thought and feelings so I have to give them that. I look forward to seeing what other dark topics Zarina Macha will take on in the future and how they will come out.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book contains two novellas about two different teen girls. Both hit you upside the head and you don’t know which way to turn as you feel empathy and compassion for both characters as they go through life’s motions all on their own. I loved each novella for two different reasons but I’ll explain later in this review.
In “Every Last Psycho,” you find yourself feeling nothing but compassion for 16-yr-old Tess as she’s lost her brother which is a tough pill to swallow as she struggles through life without him. That is until she meets Ed who helps her cope with the loss and live life joyously but she didn’t plan to fall for him since the favor isn’t always returned. Agitated and upset by Ed’s girlfriend, she’s now turned to drugs to cope. As the reader, you’re praying and hoping poor little Tess finds her way back to sobriety and in better mental health because she could most definitely use a break. This book triggered me a lot and stirred a lot of pent-up emotions. I most definitely enjoyed reading it, though.
In the second novella, “Psycho Girl,” we meet 18-yr-old Evelyn as she hides behind her exterior persona: typical type A personality. That is until she applied to the University of Cambridge and didn’t get in. Evelyn turns into someone unrecognizable as her perfect image fades away. Homicide, deception, and exploitation follow as not only does Evelyn become a narcissist but a complete psycho! Is it too late for those she loves to see or is she doomed at her own fate?
This collection of novellas has its share of twists and turns for both main characters and it keeps you addicted to each page! The fact you don’t know what to do or how to feel about them and their life is unpredictable. I couldn’t help but feel Tess’ pain and despair while Evelyn was harder to love but you know why she did what she had to do. All of this and more make you very entertained by which way it will all end. These are original books with original plots from an author I recommend reading again and again. The twists of Evelyn’s life are very realistic as I’ve dealt with my share of narcissists and their control of fearing what’s uncontrollable.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Every Last Psycho: A Collection of Two Novellas by Zarina Macha is a darker YA story where the subject matter will cause triggers and is delving into mental health. I did find it harrowing as we dealt with schizophrenia and drugs/alcohol and sexual violence. The gravity of the subject matter was a lot to take in and I found myself wondering if I wanted to continue, it was written in a matter of fact way and not really with any emotion. Don’t get me wrong I love dark stories, but I felt overwhelmed, it’s like a bad trip that just won’t end. I am not sure if it was because they were short stories that Zarina was trying to put more into it or if it was me, but I think you really need to be mentally healthy to read these books. I also don’t recommend it to anyone who is under 18.

Extremely well written collection discussing extremely difficult topics. This was a hard read for me because of the subject and the pure emotion that I had to process while reading. But the difficulty truly helped impress how authentic these stories were penned to be. The author does a beautiful job with a topic many don’t approach or treat with appropriate levels of realism. Extremely well done. This is a sensitive subject and will be difficult to read for some. However the synopsis appropriately warns the reader. Definitely recommended reading for mature readers over 14.

Every Last Psycho by Zarina Macha was a great book! Consisting of two novellas, these two novellas were incredible in the sense of psychology and psychosis in general. Every Last Thought did a great job with schizophrenia and describing it, along with drug use and addiction, and obsession. This one held me from the beginning. It was very interesting to read, and also a little difficult at some parts. Psycho Girl was a crazy read, to be frank. Evelyn was definitely a textbook psychopath. Very interesting to read, her downward spiral was very easy to see coming. Both novellas were incredible and very well written. I highly recommend, but definitely an 18+ novel, due to some content that is triggering.

Every Last Psycho: A Collection of Two Novellas
by Zarina Macha

This is a dark and haunting read. Both books were very intriguing and informative. The first one is about Tess and her schizophrenic spiraling that brought forth an emotive response. I found myself hoping that despite her mental illness she could find some long term happiness. I liked the characters of her two good friends that just wanted what was best for her and wanted to be there for her as much as they could for their age.
The second story was about Evelyn and this book also brought up emotions, it was just a different kind. It’s a sad thing to read about someone who doesn’t feel the things that you know most of us feel. The author did an excellent job writing about these issues that I honestly don’t know much about. I had a hard time putting this book down. I found it to be different from anything I have read before. I recommend this book.

Every Last Psycho: A Collection of Two Novellas by Zarina Macha. These two novellas both pulled me in from page one. Each about harder subjects but both wonderfully written. This isn’t my first by this author but these were a bit different and I loved to see that. I’ll be honest neither would probably be my normal reading but the description and of course the author captured my eye and I drove right in. Each took me on incredible journeys with characters I won’t soon forget. While smaller that doesn’t stop the impact the storylines had on me. They are both well written and paced nicely.

I am a little in shock about these two novellas. Zarina Macha writing was full of webs that are woven around the main characters of the stories. Her characters fully support the story but I honestly had a hard time making it through the novellas. I could not get the visions of the main characters out of my mind. I think what bothered me the most is that this can happen and how upsetting this can be not only for the person but also the family members. These stories are definitely for young adults over the age of 14. In both stories, the main characters have skeletons (demons) in their closet. The stories are horrid and hard to read, but I am glad I did finish the stories. I recommend this book. It is an eye opener when you start to think that this could happen in the real world.

This is my first time reading anything by this author, and I love the writing style and the flow of these stories. These were seriously tough stories to read, but written so well and although I don’t have a lot of knowledge about these subjects I feel as though I understand them just a bit more after reading more about them. I imagine these two young women suffer from things that are a reality to people around the world, and my emotions were all over the place while reading.

The first novella dealt with a young girl Tess, who is dealing with Schizophrenia brought on by the death of her brother. My heart broke for Tess, she went through so much to deal with everything going on in her mind, tried everything to make it all go away. The guy she loves doesnt love her in quite the same way and bad decisions lead to something horrible happening.

I found myself pulling so hard for Tess, she truly was amazing and I wanted her so badly to find her way. I LOVED Ed and Monique in this story. They both genuinely loved Tess and she was so blessed to have great parents and a huge support system. I feel weird saying I loved this story but I did, it was very heartfelt and written with so much care.

The second Novella was even harder than the first, I had a really hard time with it and that stems I think from just not understanding the disease. My emotions struggled a lot during this one and although it ended as it should have it still made me really sad.

I will absolutely be looking for more books by this author. Although the subjects were tough they were written very well.

Every Last Psycho: A Collection of Two Novellas by Zarina Macha is YA fiction- with darker elements, drama, sensitive subjects, and emotion.
I loved the cover, and thought the premise of this book sounded quite intriguing, so I snapped up a copy to explore. The book contains two novellas, “Every Last Thought” which follows Tess- and “Psycho Girl” which focuses on Evelyn. The stories are a little darker than I anticipated- which should have been right up my alley- but because they were such short stories, I think they fell short of the initial promise that they held.
In my opinion, I really think the ‘topics’ needed to be ‘fleshed out more’- the darker elements needed more time to ‘simmer’ and garner the depth and impact they might have otherwise had- but instead fell a little short due to trying to make the stories ‘fit’ in a smaller amount of space. I would love to see what they could become given more room to ‘grow’.
Will definitely check out her next book/s though.

Thank you, Zarina Macha!

These books have to be some of the best young adult books I have read recently. This author has a great way of creating characters that are intriguing with a storyline to match them. I really connect with each of these girls but for entirely different reasons.
Both novellas are well written and really made me think about the subject involved.
This is a great collection and I would definitely recommend it for fans of this genre!

The book Every Last Psycho: A Collection of Two Novellas are two tales with two very interesting main characters. The first one is Tess Davis. She is in the story Every Last Thought. Tess is a young girl who has schizophrenia triggered by the death of her twin brother. She is trying to survive, and this story tells about her downward spiral after living through a horrible trauma, as well as discovering that her best friend, Ed, who she is in love with, has a new girlfriend. Will she be able to stop the spiral? Tess is a character that I grew to like. I also liked her friend Ed. He does his best to try to help Tess no matter what. In the second story, you meet Evelyn Baxter. She is a young girl who I found to be independent, confident, and always seems to get her way. What will happen when she is not accepted into the University of Cambridge and another girl is? What is really behind the perfect mask that Evelyn wears? This is a dark tale that had me turning pages. Both of these stories take you on a journey that you will not soon forget. I know I thought about them even after I had finished the last page. This author does an amazing job of creating both storylines and characters that are unforgettable. This is a book that I would recommend reading.

This is a young-adult thriller book that has two short stories about two different girls. This is not my first book by this author but it is my favorite for sure. They are both great stories that have characters that took me on twists and turns that kept me turning pages just waiting to see what would happen next. First, Tess is a girl that suffers from schizophrenia who falls in love but she learns that her love is not reciprocated. She loses control of her life and drug induced delusions take her to another place. Will she get a grip on her life before it is too late? Then you have Evelyn who is loved by everyone. She applies for university but what happens when she doesn’t get in but another girl does will keep you turning pages to the end. Will everyone see the monster she truly is? Both stories had me sitting on the edge of my seat and had me engaged to the end. I highly recommend this book and this author.

A young-adult psychological drama. Suitable for ages fourteen and over.

‘Every Last Psycho’ contains two tales of two girls; ‘Every Last Thought’ and ‘Psycho Girl.’

One girl hears voices screaming in the shadows; the other burns with self-absorbed hunger.

Every Last Thought:

‘Rocking backwards and forwards; deep breaths in and out’

Sixteen year old Tess Davis suffers from schizophrenia, triggered six years ago by the onset of her twin brother’s death. She’s felt broken ever since. But when new guy Ed moved to her school two years ago, life gave her a reason to live joyously. Ed made her happy, becoming the friend she needed. But she didn’t plan to fall in love with him, and love isn’t always requited.

Distraught by Ed’s new girlfriend and a horrific trauma Tess endures, she finds herself spiraling out of control and into cocaine-fueled delusions. Will she be able to regain a grip on life?

Psycho Girl:

‘Deep inside, I feel nothing. I am nothing.’

Eighteen year old Evelyn Baxter is beautiful, confident, popular and well off. Everyone loves her; her friends, her family, her boyfriend. She is all set to apply to the University of Cambridge to study Law.

But when another girl in her year gets accepted into Cambridge and she doesn’t, Evelyn’s perfect mask starts to peel away. Murder, deceit and manipulation show Evelyn to be the monster she truly is. But will those around her realize it?

One is the victim of cruelty, the other creates it. One lives in the concrete jungle of London, the other in the suburban town of Bletchfield. Both novellas are in one binding, echoing the dark horrors within.
