Manipulating The List was brilliant, I didn’t want to put it down for a moment. The story starts off with Katherine a young girl of six seeing her aunt who was ill with leukaemia dies in the park and a man in a black hoodie take her aunt to a beautiful garden. Throughout her youth the man in the hoodie visits her and they get very friendly. Katherine calls him the Collector as he collects people who are to die. He tells her stories of the lives of the people who are about to die and lets her pick which name is next on the list. Then one day when Katherine, who is now in her twenties learns more about the Collector, and sees that her name is on the list. So now she has to basically put other people who are on the list in front of her to save herself. She is now manipulating the list.
This was a fantastic read, completely unique from what I have read before. I was completely hooked. The story is really fast pacing and kept me completely hooked.
