Super cute, super scary, super fun young adult thriller for the end of this year's spooky season!

Jessa has always played the role of the Perfect Girl. She's known as the teacher's pet, the suck up, and (to her trouble-making older brother) 'Judge Jessa'. But someone has to be the unobtrusive, untroubled, put together daughter, someone has to make the plans and execute them, someone has to keep everything (and everyone) together... and no one else is stepping up to the plate.

When faced with the possibility of being left home alone during a string of kidnappings in the next town over, Jessa petitions her parents to let her have a sleep over with her friends. However, things start to unravel and Jessa's perfect reputation may mean the difference between life and death for them all.

I had such a good time listening to this book! The narrator did an amazing job of capturing each character's individual voice as well as maintaining an incredible level of suspense. PERFECT GIRL felt like the young adult version of a Criminal Minds episode (there was no explicit violence or gore, but it was definitely implied), and maybe that's why I loved it so much!
