WoW: The Counselors by Jessica Goodman

This bookish meme tells the blogosphere what we’re waiting patiently (and sometimes not so patiently) for! It’s hosted by Jill over at Breaking the Spine!

From bestselling author Jessica Goodman comes a twisty new thriller about three best friends, one elite summer camp, and the dark secrets that lead to a body in the lake.

Sisters by choice.
That’s how Goldie and her best friends, Ava and Imogen, define their friendship, which formed years ago at Camp Alpine Lake.
This year, Goldie is back at camp as a counselor, desperate for summer to start and for Ava and Imo to arrive. With the dark secret Goldie’s been keeping, she’s more in need of their comfort than ever. When the boy who broke Goldie’s heart, turns up dead in the lake, this last summer before college is completely upended—and Goldie learns that she’s not the only person at camp who has been lying. Asking questions offers Goldie no answers, only danger and betrayals deeper than she ever imagined.

Why I’m Waiting: I haven’t actually read a book by Goodman yet, I can’t seem to finish them. (I’ve had to DNF because the drug usage is triggering for me.) But I have a weird and unhealthy obsession with horror/thrillers at camps, so…. And I’m not just making this up. I’ve seen every last Jason. I recorded the American Horror Story season to constantly rewatch when it was the 1980’s one set in the camp. Idk. it’s just my jam. So this is me saying I will at least TRY to read this. I can’t not see what it’s about. Maybe she changed a bit and I can read it now. I’ll never know if I don’t try, so I will! (Also can we talk about this bomb ass cover?! LOVEEEEEEE IT!)
