Heartbreak Homes by Jo Treggiari
5.0
The only thing better than one surprise sapphic in a book is MULTIPLE surprise sapphics!!!
Heartbreak homes is a teen thriller set around the murder of a classmate at a party, too often with these types of stories the pacing is either way too slow, or rushed at several points which I absolutely can not stand, HH does not have this issue at all. Both the pacing and the engagement levels are pretty constant throughout.
The story is told from a good number of perspectives which keeps the story feeling fresh as well as giving us multiple perspectives on the events ongoing, this mixed with the short chapters makes it super easy to speed through this book.
As I mentioned earlier there ended up being multiple queer characters which was a great surprise for me, as time goes on I'm no longer having to search for specifically queer books to get representation, I get to see queer main characters by accident, which is so refreshing!
4.5 stars rounded up to a 5, I loved this!
Big thanks to netgally, the publisher, and Jo Treggiari for providing me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review.
