How We Fall Apart
by Katie Zhao
Actually 3.5
A great new addition to the bookshelf of any fan of One of Us is Lying. Not quite what I’d expect from a book labelled as Dark Academia but hoping that will become more accurate in book 2.
All in all this is a fast paced, easy read and a welcome story but not one that will set the genre ablaze.
I really enjoyed reading about the Asian American experience of the so called American Dream-Here’s to more own voices stories in the future.
You can kind of tell that Katie previously wrote middle grade and I think this story would have benefitted from being skewed a little older in the YA bracket.
Overall though plus points:
Own Voices
Secrets
Twisty
Cliffhanger
Easy to read
Fast paced
