HEEEEEY THIS BOOK PISSED ME THE F--- OFF AND THREW ME INTO A READING SLUMP LMAO

New Orleans x debutante ball setting x atmosphere was super fun and immersive at first, but then fell a bit off because we focused more on the character dynamics (which is fine, I just noticed it lol). 

The internal dialogue of the characters sometimes sounded a bit juvenile & I struggled to sympathize with some of their motivations. 

The twists and turns were well paced but the ending really pissed me off 😭

The Debutantes by Olivia Worley

Thank you @netgalley and @wednesdaybooks for an eARC in exchange for an honest review. 

I didn’t expect to like this one so much! It’s a Young Adult mystery thriller set in NOLA. The author did an awesome job of describing New Orleans. I could picture it clearly. There are multiple POVs and takes place in the present. 

 

I did guess a couple twists but there were others that surprised me. This was a quick read for me. Page turner. I was hooked the entire time I was reading it. 

It has strong female leads. It reminded me a bit of Pretty Little Liars which I loved. The Debutantes would be a great movie or even one of those limited series that’s so popular now. 

I recommend this book to anyone who likes murder mysteries, thrillers, parental drama, twists, complicated friends and a splash of romance.

4 stars!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
