This book was a good time and I throughly enjoyed it. I absolutely loved this book it got me back into this genre with a bang. I would 100% recommend

I was granted the digital copy and the audiobook of Psychosis Diagnosis! Thank you so much!!

The audiobook is a masterpiece as it gives further life to the multiple POVs along with adding to the suspense fill of the story.

The digital copy allowed me to confirm this story features dual timelines and I used both editions at the same time because Psychosis Diagnosis kept my brain working, which is something I appreciate when I come across it in books.

4.5 star rating for this story!

This book, whilst intriguing by the synopsis just didn't grab me as a reader. I don't think it was in my wheelhouse.
Thankyou to Netgalley and Books Go Social for an arc of this book.

With a setting and feeling that is creepy as hell, this book is a very nice horror. I loved the plot and the writing.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for the chance to read this ARC. All opinions are my own.

This is a great story that has a very ominous atmosphere and was really entertaining. I would recommend this! Special Thank you to Nikki Minty, BooksGoSocial and NetGalley for allowing me to read a complimentary copy in exchange for an honest review.

This book had a compelling concept that definitely caught my attention, and while I enjoyed it overall, the pacing did lag in parts. There were moments where I had to refocus to stay engaged, but the story still delivered enough intrigue to keep me going. If you’re into eerie thrillers with paranormal and occult elements, this one’s worth a try.

The audiobook was a standout — the full cast performance added so much depth and made the experience feel incredibly immersive

Thank you Netgalley, Nikki Minty for the opportunity to read this book. This was a nonstop roller-coaster of who's side are we on and who is telling the whole truth. In this book we follow Monroe through his addiction and blackouts to the other side where blackouts still exist. They also discuss cults and the different kind of holds they have on members and outsiders. This book keeps you on your toes and I could barely put it down. The twists and turns these characters take make you want to travel with them and at times even take a step back from them.

Well then, I don’t know what I thought to expect on this book, but wow!

I saw this book on NetGalley and was taken by the cover! Then read the description then immediately requested. I have never read anything by this author, but now I’m going to have to check out more of her work!!

Talk about a psychological roller coaster!! These are the books I live for… and all my wtf moments carried all the way until the end!! The very end! There’s a little bit of dark magic, a little bit of cult, a lot of bit of thriller and creepy to boot.

I enjoyed this one a lot.

Thank you NetGalley and BooksGoSocial for the free copies.

The narration is was great and I enjoyed the full cast!

I absolutely LOVED this book! All of the major jaw dropping plot twists really kicked into high gear around the midway point, and just kept getting bigger and better with every passing page. I really need more people to get on this one so I can obsess over it with someone other than myself. 10/10 recommend!!!

Thank you Netgalley, Nikki Minty and BooksGoSocial for the audio Arc of Psychosis Diagnosis.
Narrated by Ari Maza Long, Jodie Harris, James Fouhey, Tamblyn Lord, Karen Chilton

The premise of this book really fascinated me and I was pleasantly surprised with this book! Psychosis Diagnosis is a well written mystery with some horror elements which I felt were well balanced. Told from a multi POVs and well marked timeline. We get to piece together what happed to Monroe who is trying to turn his life around. after being raised by a drug dependant Mother, And who, after trying to protect his next door neighbour Indi against her father, Gets told that Indi doesn't exist and spends time in Rozelle Hospital for drug-induced psychosis. As the story unfolds, we get. to see that all is not what it seems.

This narrative tackles some heavy subjects like mental health in a tactful way and mixed in with the horrors of a cult, conspiracies, trauma, drugs and addiction. Which made for a very immersive read, especially with the multi narration, who did an excellent job. Looking forward to reading more of Nikki Minty's books

4.25 for story graph. 4 stars for other review sites

We follow Monroe, who’s just trying to survive life with his drug-addicted mom in a small town in Australia. He’s got a plan to finally leave and start over, but then Indi, his terrified neighbor, shows up covered in bruises, saying she’s being forced to marry some creepy cult leader. Monroe tries to help her escape… but things go sideways fast. He ends up in a psychiatric hospital for a year after a violent fight with her dad, and suddenly everyone is telling him Indi never existed.
Now out, Monroe’s on a mission to prove she’s real and figure out what the hell happened—and it only gets weirder (and darker) from there.
I liked how this book mixed cult horror, mental health themes, murder mystery, and just the right dash of “wait, is this real?” to keep me turning pages. You’re constantly questioning what’s real, who to trust, and what Monroe’s role in all of it really is. The cult aspect was especially eerie, with its manipulation, control, and how far people will go to bury the truth.

It’s definitely unsettling in spots and touches on a lot of serious stuff, but it still managed to be an enjoyable, fast-paced read.

This book did not have an opening chapter that made me want to continue reading. I thought the premise sounded intriguing but it made it to my DNF pile quickly.

Thank you NetGalley and BooksGoSocial for the ARC!

This was quite the ride! I picked it up because the cover was just so wonderfully dark, I had to pick it up! The book was eerie and creepy, with elements that made it a bit terrifying at times. The pacing of the story isn't too slow or too fast, though maybe a bit of cutoff here and there could have been needed. The descriptions of everything were so vivid and enticing to keep the reader fully immersed! I love how the book doesn't use gore as it element of creepiness, but Moreso uses the atmosphere to make one unnerved.

4.5 stars

I really enjoyed this book and the characters in it were really interesting. I felt like there was depth and nuance to them.

Some parts of the plot were a bit obvious and the climax felt a little rushed, but that didn’t take away from the story.

I sympathized for Monroe so much. He was dealt such a rough hand in life. I loved his POVs.

This does jump POVs and time a little bit, but the chapter always tells you who it is and when. I liked seeing how things from the past brought about things in present day.

Okay so—this book was *definitely* unlike anything I’ve read before! I don’t usually dive into paranormal horror, so I went in with absolutely no expectations… but wow, I had *so much fun* with it. The whole dark magic vibe? Creepy, mysterious, and somehow totally addicting. It was fresh and thrilling in a way that kept me flipping through the pages, curious to see what would happen next.

All of the characters had their own intrigue, and the eerie atmosphere was something I didn’t know I’d enjoy this much. Honestly, I *adore* how this book pushed me out of my comfort zone—it was such a pleasant surprise!

That said, I do wish it had been just a little bit shorter. At times it felt like it dragged a little, and trimming down some of the pages could’ve made it tighter and even more impactful. But hey, since this was my first taste of the genre, I won’t complain too much—it still ended up being a great experience overall.

So if you’re like me and haven’t really explored paranormal horror yet, maybe give this one a shot. It might just pull you in and leave you wanting more. I’m honestly excited to check out more books like this now!

I was hooked from the beginning!!
It was amazing and engaging.
I was instantly sucked in by the atmosphere and writing style.
The characters were all very well developed .
The writing is exceptional and I was hooked after the first sentence.

Psychosis Diagnosis by Nikki Minty and narrated by Jodie Harris, Karen Chilton, James Fouhey, Ari Maza Long and Tamblyn Lord was a book I would not usually read or listen to, but the cover caught my eye and I am so glad it did. This cover is beautiful and so eye catching. So sit back and open your kindle or audio book. . . . . . . . . . . .

This audiobook was a full on horror story and I loved it! especially as I was able to read and listen to the audiobook at the same time, which was brilliant! Psychosis Diagnosis was a very dark and twisted story and it had me questioning “who can I trust?" When I do that I know it will be an excellent book and it sure was!

Let the story begin. . . . "Welcome to The Church of Salvation, where your soul checks in but never checks out."

Psychosis Diagnosis was a very chilling psychological thriller / horror and is set in Coraki, Australia. Monroe Morgan was raised by his drug-addicted mother is so determined to escape a life steeped in misery. With dreams of a better future, he has secured a job at his brother-in-law’s pub in Coffs Harbour and is set to start as soon as he turns eighteen. Whatever happens, he will make it happen........

However, a month before his departure, Monroe’s life takes a drastic turn; when his neighbour, Indi, appears at his doorstep, battered and scared for her life. She reveals harrowing details about her upbringing in The Church of Salvation and declares that she is being forced to marry the church’s pastor against her will. Concerned for Indi’s safety, Monroe plans to take her with him when he leaves. But on the morning of their escape, he is jolted awake by blood-curdling screams coming from next door. A violent confrontation with Indi’s father ensues, resulting in Monroe’s arrest and a year-long stay in Rozelle Hospital for drug-induced psychosis. In a cruel twist of fate, Indi’s father denies her existence, and the doctors and authorities dismiss her as a figment of Monroe’s imagination.

WoW!!! this book is so good I could not put it down. All the narrators were superb.

I highly recommend this book/ audiobook.

Big Thank you to NetGalley and BooksGoSocial Audio for my audiobook and ebook. x

“Welcome to The Church of Salvation, where your soul checks in but never checks out.”

The premise of this book is very interesting and I enjoyed it overall. However, I did find it a bit sluggish at times and had to bring myself back to the story. It was still enjoyable and any lovers of paranormal thrillers, horror, and the occult will probably like it.

I also listened to the audiobook and the narration was very good ! There was a full cast narration and it all felt so immersive.

Thank you to the publisher, author, and Netgalley for my review digital and audio copy.

This story is a dark, twisty paranormal mystery that seeks to uncover the past of a cult, the supernatural ties, and a bit of a murder mystery. Overall, I found this book to be quite enjoyable and a quick, fun read. I did switch to the audiobook about half way through after reading reviews about how good it was, and I have to agree. The full cast narration really added to the story and made for a great time.

There were many POV’s in this story, and truthfully, I didn’t love all of them/feel they were all necessary but do appreciate how they all wove together and uncovered bits and pieces of the story. There’s also an alternating timeline, which I don’t always love, as was the case in this book as well. I found the 1830’s timeline a bit more intriguing in this one. But overall, I found this book to be a decent read and recommend picking it up if you like paranormal stories with elements of dark magic and cults.

Psychosis Diagnosis by Nikki Minty is a gripping psychological thriller with a sharp supernatural edge. Centered on a teen’s desperate quest to uncover the truth about a missing girl and a sinister cult, the story balances emotional intensity with fast-paced suspense. A dark, twisty ride that keeps you questioning reality until the end.
