    Yeah.... I agree with Holly! Sounds reallyyyy familiar, just cousins instead of friends this time! My high school kids love One of Us is Lying, but I’ve never gotten around to reading any of her work. Great review and love the new setup! 😁

      Thank you! I’ve never heard of this author and it would make sense since I try to stay away from YA.

    Your new setup looks nice! I read One of Us is Lying by Karen McManus and also didn't realize it was YA until I started it too. I also thought it was okay and gave it 3 stars. I don't think I'll go out of my way to read The Cousins.

    Cool review Kayla. This doesn't sound like my thing. I think I will give it a miss. I like your new setup too. OMG I really like your channel!

      I’m still loving my new set up.

    Great review! I had been eyeing this one for a while. I liked your reaction at the end of the novel 😂 👍

      Thanks! I just wish it gave me the shock factor I was looking for. How do you feel about YA books?

    Ehhhhhh I think I'll end up skipping this one!! This sounds way too similar to One of Us is Lying actually hahaha. A bunch of kids with secrets that were unraveled and trying to find out who the killer was. Originally I was excited to read a story about cousins because my cousins and I were always so close growing up, but it bums me out to realize they don't even really know each other! I totally agree with you on YA! I still keep adding them to my tbr and then usually am disappointed BUT sometimes I find those gems hahaha

    • @Booksinthedark

      It’s the covers that get me. YA has the best book covers😂 I thought the cousins would be super close too.

    I had no idea this was YA, either. I've had it on my TBR for a while now. I don't even remember what it's about or why I added it, lol.
    😮😮😮 But what did they do?! Now I want to find out... but booooo, how disappointing! I might just google spoilers. 🤣
