The Graceview Patient by Caitlin Starling

Margaret lives with a rare autoimmune condition that has destroyed her life, leaving her isolated. It has no cure, but she’s making do as best she can—until she’s offered a fully paid-for spot in an experimental medical trial at Graceview Memorial. The conditions are simple, if grueling: she will live at the hospital as a full-time patient, subjecting herself to the near-total destruction of her immune system and its subsequent regeneration. The trial will essentially kill most of, but not all of her. But as the treatment progresses and her body begins to fail, she stumbles upon something sinister living and spreading within the hospital. Unsure of what's real and what is just medication-induced delusion, Margaret struggles to find a way out as her body and mind succumb further to the darkness lurking throughout Graceview's halls.

Clear Your Shit: Startled by the Wizard! (Character to Fight)

After a lot of trial and error (and wet ankles), we manage to cross the river with a series of logs, rope pullies and then giving up on all that nonsense to walk upriver and find a bridge. On the other side of the river, we run into none other than the Wizard! Great! He must have something for us. Why else would he show up completely out of nowhere? We approach him, practically skipping with excitement. Just before we can reach him however he gives a flick of his wrist and disappears in a cloud of smoke. Heather and I look at each other in stunned confusion before I feel a tug at my bag. I turn just in time to see him pull a copy of Tithe by Holly Black from my bag and disappear again. That jerk! As if things weren't hard enough. I feel the urge to punch the Wizard in his bearded face the next time we see him. I hadn't felt such an urge to deck someone since Nephamael from the book he so rudely stole.
