Marisha pessl neverworld wake6/30/2023 As in Groundhog Day, these friends wake up and find themselves inhabiting the same day over and over their only promise of escape is almost too terrible to contemplate: They must unanimously determine which one person among them will live, while the other four die. Centered around a group of five formerly close knit friends, whose relationships with one another were splintered following a mysterious death, Neverworld Wake mostly takes place in a limbo of sorts, as each of the main characters must face again and again the horrors that live within their pasts-and their minds. Such is the case with Neverworld Wake, the latest-and first YA-novel from author Marisha Pessl. I mean, what's so funny about having all meaning and consequence removed from your life? Well, as it turns out, not that much if you don't have Bill Murray at the center of your narrative. The best trick the devil ever played was making audiences think that classic Bill Murray movie Groundhog Day is a comedy, instead of an existential nightmare.
