The Project by Courtney Summers tells the story of Lo Denham, an aspiring journalist who wants to expose the cult that took her sister. To do so, she'll have to get close to the very people she's trying to destroy and question everything she believes.

I enjoyed this book quite a bit. Summers' writing is vibrant and gritty, the story is intriguing, and the characters are complicated. I could appreciate Lo's cynicism and bluntness that she uses to mask her trauma and pain. If you enjoy stories about cults, questioning faith/religion, or sisters, you might just love this book!
