American Girl by Wendy Walker
4.0
American Girl is a fast-paced mystery told from the perspective of Charlie, a hard-working 17 year old girl on the autism spectrum.
Charlie lives in a small town, working at a diner owned by Clay Cooper, a powerful man with lecherous intentions. He is murdered and she is the only witness, but she didn't actually see his murderer. Charlie is concerned it is someone she loves as he has so many enemies.
The story is filled with twists and turns, imperfect characters, and a vivid backdrop. I loved how clever Charlie was. I listened to the audiobook, which was narrated by a full cast. The ebook and audiobook are so cinematic.
Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for providing this ARC. All thoughts are my own.
