My Flawless Life by Yvonne Woon
5.0
Initially, this reminded me a lot of Veronica Mars, but with a half-Asian, formerly rich kid falling out of grace but having to still attend a school full of rich kids, be snubbed by her former popular kid friends, and ending up doing "fixer" jobs for cash and power.
Once we get past that initial bit, this veers into more interesting territory with some fun twists and reveals that feel organic and interesting. If you enjoy knowing answers up front, you won't enjoy this one, but if you enjoy trying to work out a mystery and having layers slowly being peeled back, this is a really fun and interesting ride into guilt, self-loathing, and rich kids taking responsibility for their terrible actions.
