Bonfire by Krysten Ritter

This feels a little too similar to Veronica Mars for me. Too much “you can try to leave but it sucks you back in” and “small town corruption, it’s a tale as old as time.” Aka this feels like a cliche and I wanted to like this way more than I did.
Would like to know why every heroine who returns to her hometown after escaping and reaching some kind of success in thrillers like this just decides to go completely off the rails the second she touches back down. This would have been so much better if Abby didn’t immediately start drunk driving every night after she returns to The Barrens.
