Waiting on Wednesday:

Can’t-Wait Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted at Wishful Endings, to spotlight and discuss the books we’re excited about that we have yet to read.

The Good Girls

Author: Claire Eliza Bartlett

Publisher: HarperTeen

Release Date: Dec 1, 2020

Synopsis from Goodreads:

The troublemaker. The overachiever. The cheer captain. The dead girl.

Like every high school in America, Jefferson-Lorne High contains all of the above.

After the shocking murder of senior Emma Baines, three of her classmates are at the top of the suspect list: Claude, the notorious partier; Avery, the head cheerleader; and Gwen, the would-be valedictorian.

Everyone has a label, whether they like it or not–and Emma was always known as a good girl. But appearances are never what they seem. And the truth behind what really happened to Emma may just be lying in plain sight. As long-buried secrets come to light, the clock is ticking to find Emma’s killer–before another good girl goes down.

Why I’m Excited: 

If you know me at all, you know I cannot help but pick up a good YA whodunit. This definitely looks to be in the vein of One of Us is Lying, and I’ve heard great things about this author. I’ll definitely be keeping my eyes out for this one.

What are you waiting for this week?
