How We Fall Apart
by Katie Zhao
This book has a great premise and great descriptors: dark academia, Gossip Girl meets Crazy Rich Asians meets One of Us is Lying — sign me up. Unfortunately, it fell flat for me and was a bit of a slog to finish. The characters all felt very one-dimensional and there was very little suspense, despite repeated mentions of “The Incident” that sent them all on this path of betrayal. The final reveal was some straight up 80s soap opera business that felt sloppy and ridiculous. I think this is going to be the right book for some readers, but it was not a good one for me.
