They Wish They Were Us by Jessica Goodman
4.0
Prep school intrigue your thing? Let’s talk about:
Elite School Group - Jill is part of her schools elite school group The Players, which contains select students to band together through high school
Friend Dead - but during her freshman year orientation, her best friend Shaila is found dead
Senior Year - Flash forward to senior year, where Jill is sure it will be the best one ever
What Happened? - But when rumors start circulating that Shaila’s boyfriend Graham didn’t kill her after all, Jill tries to find out who did
After reading some of Jessica Goodman’s other works, I decided to read some of her backlist. This book was very fast paced and not boring. I would check some trigger warnings is there are some things mentioned in this book. While I did suspect the end all along, I was still very invested in the ending and was satisfied in how it came about. It would be a great beach read for those who like mysteries.
