Pasadena by Sherri L. Smith

3.0

3.5
Maggie was a very important person to Jude and losing her destroyed her. Maggie was a big part of Jude’s life but she was also a big part of other’s lives too which Jude didn’t know.
Jude trying to get to the bottom of her bestfriends suicide is understandable but the reason for the suicide was not a huge secret like the story makes it out to be.
Although I understand that Jude went through a lot and confided in Maggie, I disliked how she treated Joey, who was only nice to her. She expected him to always be there for her and stay loyal but only when she needed him. What about how Joey felt about his friend commiting suicide?
Overall I liked the book but had some issues with the main character and especially Maggie’s mom saying she knew her daughter would go to hell!
