I just finished Reconstructing Amelia by Kimberly McCreight. I didn't want to put this book down and ended up reading it in a day and a half. I was really drawn to the characters in the book and was very curious about what happened to Amelia.
I really enjoy books that have the perspectives of different characters throughout the book. I also like when the story is not necessarily in time order. I think it just makes me read the book faster. The format of this book kind of reminded me of a Jodi Picoult book, but the writing style was different.
I liked how I was guessing what happened up until the ending. Some of the twists were not what I would have liked, but I think they were well written and most were a surprise.
This was kind of a scary subject for me. I hope my kids never have to deal with this kind of bullying and gossip. I guess I don't remember this stuff happening when I was in high school, but maybe I just did a good job of avoiding it.
