Dangerous Girls by Abigail Haas
5.0
Fantastic.
Anna, and her best friend Elise and boyfriend Tate, along with a couple of other friends go on a trip to Aruba for spring break. They are having a blast, but it is soon cut short when Elise is brutally murdered. And the finger is being pointed at Anna. Anna is in prison and on trial for the murder of Elise, and she is fighting fiercely for her freedom.
Caught me completely off guard. I preferred it to Dangerous Boys - But I still recommend you pick up both up. Abigail Haas has a talent for creating such suspense, and a way for creating such frustration in the reader. Brill!
I got a ARC for Dangerous Boys earlier in the year, and I loved it. It was such a roller coaster ride with a shocking twist that left your mind reeling. After having read Dangerous Girls, I must say the latter is my favourite.
From reviews I read, the main way people describe this book, is 'mind-fuck', and I have to say I wholeheartedly agree. It is a thrilling ride right from the start. I have never read a book that has got me so frustrated at EVERY single character, or so frustrated at trying to figure out who the hell did it! The mystery is fantastic. For those who haven't read Dangerous Boys, don't click this -
The character were so well developed, yet they were so awful, but I loved it. I loved every minute of hating these completely realistic teenagers.
This isn't really much of a coherent review, and I don't really want to say anything else, because I don't want to spoil anything!
If you are a fan of books like Gone Girl, and We Were Liars then this is a book you do not want to miss out on. Seriously. Go pick it up.

Spoiler
I was so busy looking at everyone else, I didn't for a minute even think Anna actually did it. She is a fantastic liar and one hell of a protagonist.Spoiler
I think, after the twist in Dangerous Boys, I just didn't even think to look at Anna, because I didn't think she would use the same plot twist, yet it was changed up a bit - but I wasn't at all disappointed, and it actually increased my enjoyment of the book.The character were so well developed, yet they were so awful, but I loved it.
