Thicker Than Water by Kelly Fiore Stultz
5.0
I've loved Kelly Fiore's books since I read Taste Test, and this is easily her best one. (No offense to the others.) Those are just incredibly fun, sweet, fast reads and this one broke my heart.
CeCe carries around a lot of guilt for her brother Cy's death and as a result, she doesn't do that much work to participate in her own defense. (We learn the exact circumstances of his death toward the end of the book, but we know that whatever it is, her involvement was enough to land her in legal trouble).
This book absolutely gutted me. It's so easy to feel guilty for things that aren't your fault, but what CeCe was feeling...without going into specifics, let me just say that Kelly Fiore makes you absolutely feel everything CeCe does and will also give you so much empathy for every character in the book (even CeCe; even Cy).
Highly, highly recommended.
