Quick Review: Very Bad People by Kit Frick Rating: 4/5

An excellent boarding school mystery. I'm amazed this isn't a staple of dark academia book lists to be perfectly honest. It's pacy and nuanced and has so many things going on at once which really shows how good a mystery writer Frick is. The only reason this wasn't a 5-star for me is that I'm just a bit sick of reading about rich kids making bad choices but your mileage will vary.

Blog Tour + #Review: THE REUNION by Kit Frick (w/ #giveaway)! #turnthepagetours

Welcome to Book-Keeping and my stop on the Turn the Page Tours blog tour for The Reunion, the latest YA mystery/thriller by Kit Frick! I've got all the details, my review, and a 3-copy giveaway for you below!

About the Book

title: The Reunion author: Kit Frick publisher: Simon Teen release date: 29 August 2023

From the author of I Killed Zoe Spanos comes a YA thriller in the vein of The White Lotus and Karen M. McManus��s The Cousins following a doomed family reunion gone wrong at a posh Caribbean resort, where old grudges and dangerous secrets culminate in murder. Eleven Mayweathers went on vacation. Ten came home. It’s been years since the fragmented Mayweather clan was all in one place, but the engagement of Addison and Mason’s mom to the dad of their future stepbrother, Theo, brings the whole family to sunny Cancún, Mexico, for winter break. Add cousin Natalia to the mix, and it doesn’t take long for tempers to fray and tensions to rise. A week of forced family “fun” reveals that everyone has something to hide, and as secrets bubble to the surface, no one is safe from the fallout. By the end of the week, one member of the reunion party will be dead—and everyone’s a suspect: The peacekeeper: Addison needs a better hiding place. The outsider: Theo just wants to mend fences. The romantic: Natalia doesn’t want to talk about the past. The hothead: Mason needs to keep his temper under control. It started as a week in paradise meant to bring them together. But the Mayweathers are about to learn the hard way that family bonding can be deadly.

My 4-Star Review

This is my third book by Kit Frick, with my favorite that I've read being See All the Stars. Kit does a great job of portraying teens and all the feelings running through them at any given moment, and then turning that brew into a great YA thriller. Here we have a large extended family that seems super tight, but when they go on vacation together, cracks begin to appear. The mystery dribbles out slowly as we watch the characters interact, giving us hints of old anxieties and issues, as the tension ratchets up. I was shocked by the ending to be sure, which is always a plus for me!

The publisher was kind enough to send me a copy of the book for this tour, but I also purchased myself the audiobook to listen along as I read. If you're an audiobook fan, I'd definitely give this one a go! Either way, it's a solid YA mystery/thriller and any fan of those should definitely pick up The Reunion (and any other Kit Frick book!).

Rating: 4 stars!

**Disclosure: I received a copy of this book for purposes of this blog tour. This review is voluntary on my part and reflects my honest rating and review of the book.

Me, but not me. The similarities are striking; they prick at the corners of my eyelids, making me squint and then open wide until I see myself, then don't again.
