I would like to thank Netgalley and RB Media for this audiobook ARC. This audiobook is narrated by Suzy Jackson.
Youthjuice follows Sophie's journey starting her new job at Hebe, a luxury skin care brand. Sophie is quick to want to impress her boss, Tree. Tree gives Sophie a serum to try on her scarred hands. It works amazingly and the scars seemingly disappear. There are interns missing, there's conflict with Sophie's roommate, and there's murder(s). As the book progresses, Sophie's want to impress Tree is her ultimate downfall.
Youthjuice was so enjoyable. It is unhinged in the best way! I wasn't expecting to enjoy it as much as I did. If you like unhinged, female main characters, I think that you will love this. It reminded me a lot of Bunny by Mona Awad, but had a more defined plot. The book ties together young people's desire to be noticed and liked. It also really sheds light on the problematic influencer community. I highly recommend this one!
