Welcome to Litsy!

So. Now reading a bit of others reviews it makes sense I couldn‘t get it … the audio versión was horrible and really that‘s my only options… unfortunately I highly doubt I would try to revisit in hard copy #DogNurse

A pretty standard true crime story. The angle of interest here is really how teenage social tensions can take violent, devastating turns. It will be your niche if you're intrigued by the manipulative, self-absorbed, risk oblivious, irrational nature of the adolescent brain. I DO NOT recommend the audio- the fake voices the narrator puts on to represents teenage subjects are PAINFUL and definitely detracted from my engagement with this.

The audiobook narrator was terrible! The voices she attempted to do for the teens were annoying and grating

This is not my usual genre. Before this, I had never read a true crime novel. I came across this book while watching Dateline and read it out of curiosity. Book is well written and informative. The subject matter is sad. But, the book brought the victim to life. She isn‘t just a statistic but a person who lived and died a senseless death.

This book, read for my #truecrime book club, is about two girls who kill their (supposed) best friend because they thought she was getting annoying, and also maybe because she was blackmailing them for being lesbians. One teen is a definite sociopath, but the real drama is in the Twitter feuds.
