This Is Our Story
by Ashley Elston
*Screams in YA*
Bless local library reading challenges. If it wasn’t for my library, combined with my Type C personality in completing things even if I don't want/need to, I probably would have never picked up a YA thriller. I suppose I always associated YA with high school melodrama and fantasy heavy-petting. Both not for me. But this was so good.
I love when we get an unknown POV like in this novel. Most of the story is told via Kate, but we get snippets from an unlabeled narrator and I was so excited every time they came up.
OK, so the courtroom scene at the end was so incredibly unrealistic. But that’s fine. It's YA. A little bit of theatrics is acceptable.
I’ll be reading The Lying Woods as soon as I can. I hope it lives up to this one.
Reread 2023: next time I reread this novel I have to keep a "conflict of interest" count. Because damn.
