Little Monsters

 I always have students that only want to read realistic fiction. This is definitely one they will want to pick up. Kacey has just moved to Broken Falls. She is now living their with her father and his new family. She falls in with Bailey and Jade and they become inseparable. But one night, her little sister sneaks out to hang with them and they decide to go the the "haunted" house down the block Kacey isn't sure what happens in that barn, but her sister is changed by it. Then the girls don't invite her to go to a party with them. Kacey is confused and hurt. When Bailey can't be found the next day, she is even more confused about what has happened. After Bailey turns up dead, all eyes are on Kacey. Did she have something to do with the death or is she being framed? As the investigation heats up, Kacey finds herself alone and under suspicion. This book takes a look at friendships- my mother always told me groups of 3 just don't work- and how you never really know what people's motives are. It's a fast little whodunnit that will leave you on the edge of your seat at times. Great summer read! Happy reading my friends!
