3.2.2021 - The Girls Are All So Nice Here

 The Girls Are All So Nice Here by Laurie Elizabeth Flynn

Many thanks to NetGalley and Simon & Schuster for the opportunity to read the debut novel by Laurie Elizabeth Flynn - 4 stars for a look into some really mean girls!

Ambrosia (aka Amb) started off her freshman year as Wesleyan just wanting to fit in.  She had a sweet roommate, Flora, but fell under the spell of bad girl, Sully.  Ten years later, Amb is married to Adrian and has no intention of attending her college reunion.  But she receives a hand-written anonymous note she can't ignore saying - We need to talk about what we did that night.  When she arrives at the reunion, both her and Sully continue to receive increasingly-threatening messages and Amb starts questioning everyone's actions both in the present and the past.

Told in alternating chapters between the past and at the reunion, we learn just how mean girls can be.  This is also an eye-opening look into what we will stoop to in order to fit in and be who we think others want us to be.  This storyline kept me glued to the pages to see exactly who did what to whom!
