She's Too Pretty to Burn

An electric romance set against a rebel art scene sparks lethal danger for two girls in this expertly plotted YA thriller. For fans of E. Lockhart, Lauren Oliver and Kara Thomas.

The summer is winding down in San Diego. Veronica is bored, caustically charismatic, and uninspired in her photography. Nico is insatiable, subversive, and obsessed with chaotic performance art. They’re artists first, best friends second. But that was before Mick. Delicate, lonely, magnetic Mick: the perfect subject, and Veronica’s dream girl. The days are long and hot―full of adventure―and soon they are falling in love. Falling so hard, they never imagine what comes next. One fire. Two murders. Three drowning bodies. One suspect . . . one stalker. This is a summer they won’t survive.

Inspired by The Picture of Dorian Gray, this sexy psychological thriller explores the intersections of love, art, danger, and power.

Why I’m Waiting: All I needed to see was “Inspired by The Picture of Dorian Gray” and I was SOLD. And to add on to that, it’s an LGBTQ thriller?! YES, PLEASE! Also, Idk what it is about this cover, but it’s so pretty! I think its the pink hair? It’s not the colors because the pink and orange from the fire kinda clashes, but for some reason overall, I just feel like it works!

What about you? Will you be reading this? Do you like thrillers? Have you added this to your TBR already? Let me know in the comments!
