“A page-turner. Don’t start reading it if you’ve got important business the next morning becauseHold Tight will keep you up all night.”
— San Francisco Chronicle
“A fast and exhilarating roller-coaster ride that you don’t want to end, but hold on tight. Then take the time to hug your kids.”
—Library Journal (Starred Review)
“COMPULSIVE PAGE-TURNER…
“How do you weigh a child’s privacy against a parent’s right to know?…
“How do you differentiate normal teenage rebelliousness from out-of-control behavior?…
“When and how do you intervene if suicidal signs appear?…
“Coben plucks each of these strings like a virtuoso as Mike and Tia Baye try to deal with the increasing withdrawal of their 16-year-old son, Adam, after a friend’s suicide. A pair of brutal, seemingly senseless killings, punctuate the unfolding domestic troubles that ratchet up the tension and engulf the Baye family, their friends and neighbors in a web of increasing tragedy.
“The ‘this could be me’ factor lends poignancy to the thrills and chills.” —Publishers Weekly (Starred Review)

Rounding up from 3.5. Totally convoluted but overall pretty good
This is the second book I've read by Coben and I really enjoyed it. It was both suspenseful and moving at the same time, as some of the subject matter is quite sensitive, but a great book.
