Published July 25th 2017 by Delacorte Press 336 pages | Goodreads Description: ❝Kacey is the new girl in Broken Falls. When she moved in with her father, she stepped into a brand-new life. A life with a stepbrother, a stepmother, and strangest of all, an adoring younger half sister. Kacey’s new life is eerily charming compared with the wild highs and lows of the old one she lived with her volatile mother.
And everyone is so nice in Broken Falls—she’s even been welcomed into a tight new circle of friends. Bailey and Jade invite her to do everything with them. Which is why it’s so odd when they start acting distant. And when they don’t invite her to the biggest party of the year, it doesn’t exactly feel like an accident.
But Kacey will never be able to ask, because Bailey never makes it home from that party. Suddenly, Broken Falls doesn’t seem so welcoming after all—especially once everyone starts looking to the new girl for answers. Kacey is about to learn some very important lessons: Sometimes appearances can be deceiving. Sometimes when you’re the new girl, you shouldn’t trust anyone. ❞ (end of description)
MY RATING: ★★★☆☆ (3/5)
REVIEW
I listened to the audiobook so to me it seemed like the book had different narrators but after reading some reviews it appears that Kacey was the main narrator and some sections of the book consisted of another character’s diary.. The story is more character than plot driven and describes the dark dynamics of some teenage friendships.
I wished the characters would’ve had more depth and that the motivation for the murder would’ve been more believable (or less shallow).
Overall, it was ok. I recommend it to readers of YA and mysteries.
