2.5 rounded up 3 Heather Cole, a psychologist who treats troubled kids finds herself plunged back into her own childhood when a mysterious envelope shows up at her office containing a necklace she hasn’t seen since the night her best friend was murdered. Heather and her 3 friends found themselves captivated, to the point of obsession, by all things creepy and formed The Dead Girls Club. Teen fascination with horror, serial killers and urban legends turns to something MUCH darker when Becca, Heather’s best friend, is murdered. Or was she? Somebody knows the whole story and is baiting Heather, letting her know that her secret is no longer safe. Someone wants Heather to pay for what happened. Talk about unreliable narrator! It is clear early on that Heather is not mentally stable. The then and now narration leaves the reader wondering how much of the then is what actually happened and how much is Heather's twisted mind. The story is full of twists and turns and has a very dark thread that pulls the story along. The ending left a bit to be desired and left more questions than answers. I didn’t really like the ending as it seemed too much like so many endings to books and movies in this genre. Thank you to the publisher and to Netgalley and for the e-Arc in exchange for my honest review!
