About this ebook
Two former best friends return to their college reunion to find that they’re being circled by someone who wants revenge for what they did ten years before—and will stop at nothing to get it—in this “propulsive” (Megan Miranda, bestselling author of The Girl from Widow Hills) psychological thriller.
A lot has changed since Ambrosia Wellington graduated from college, and she’s worked hard to create a new life for herself. But then an invitation to her ten-year reunion arrives in the mail, along with an anonymous note that reads, “We need to talk about what we did that night.”
It seems Ambrosia’s past—and the people she thoughts she’d left there—aren’t as buried as she believed. Amb can’t stop fixating on what she did or who she did it with: larger-than-life Sloane “Sully” Sullivan, Amb’s former best friend, who could make anyone do anything.
At the reunion, Amb and Sully receive increasingly menacing messages, and it becomes clear that they’re being pursued by someone who wants more than just the truth of what happened that first semester. This person wants revenge for what they did and the damage they caused—the extent of which Amb is only now fully understanding. And it was all because of the game they played to get a boy who belonged to someone else and the girl who paid the price.
Alternating between the reunion and Amb’s freshman year, The Girls Are All So Nice Here is a “chilling and twisty” (Book Riot) “page-turner” (Entertainment Weekly) about the brutal lengths girls can go to get what they think they’re owed, and what happens when the games we play in college become matters of life and death.

Thank you NetGalley and Goodreads for the opportunity to read the ARC of The Girls Are All So Nice Here! WOW! This book is one twisty thrill ride that will not let you out of it's grasp until the shocking final page! Amb is dreading a college reunion and having to face a dark past but with a mysterious note arriving, she has no choice but to return and reconnect with Sully and find out what the mystery person wants from them. I greatly enjoyed the past and present change in narrative, it added such depth with the mounting suspense! The complexity of trying to find your true self while trying fit in, friendship, bullying, heartache, backstabbing and betrayals galore! Oh what a tangled web we weave... I highly recommend this book! This is bound to be the hit psychological thriller of the year!! I will post my review on Netgalley, Goodreads, Amazon, Barnes and Noble and Google play!
