Read This Book
Dark romance, high stakes, and plot twists abound in this paperback original YA thriller that's perfect for fans of Colleen Hoover. What you don't know can hurt you.... It’s been months since the accident that killed Ella’s best friend, Hayley, and Ella can’t stop blaming herself. Now Ella is back at school, and everywhere she looks are reminders of her best friend—including Sawyer, Hayley’s boyfriend. Little by little, they grow closer, until Ella realizes something horrifying . . . She’s in love with her dead best friend’s boyfriend. Racked with guilt, Ella turns to Hayley’s journal, hoping she’ll find something in the pages that will make her feel better about what’s happening.... The book’s ability to sustain interest over time is one of its defining qualities. Rather than relying on repetitive patterns, it introduces variations that keep the narrative fresh. This adaptability ensures that readers remain curious about what comes next. The author skillfully integrates descriptive elements into the story without disrupting the flow. Settings are depicted clearly enough to establish context, yet they never overshadow the characters or plot. This balance enhances immersion while preserving narrative focus.
