Every Single Lie by Rachel Vincent
5.0
Oh! You guys have GOT to read this one!
Meet Beckett Bergen: high school junior, amateur lock pick, and finder of a dead baby. Throw in the fact that her mother, Detective Bergen, is assigned to the case, the suspicious mystery texts her boyfriend keeps hiding from her, some Twitter hate from an anonymous account that goes viral, and the mystery of #LullabyDoe's parents, and you've got yourself a real page-turner.
I mean the story was so twisty that I was suspicious of every character: her boyfriend, her estranged best friend that shows back up, her mom, her dad (who died seven months ago), her brother. I was able to figure it out by the end of Chapter 15, but I was also an English teacher for nine years and naturally look for foreshadowing. It didn't slow down my need to get to the end of the book.
This book is masterful at showing how people handle grief differently, and ultimately, that was the biggest piece of this story. And it's my favorite read so far this year.
