The nail-bitingly intense story of a summer at camp that ends in a disturbing deathand depicts a powerful friendship that wont ever be forgotten. Perfect for fans of One of Us Is Lying and Broken Things.
Kayla is still holding on to Lainies secrets.
After all, Lainie is Kaylas best friend. And despite Lainies painful obsession with her on-again, off-again boyfriend, and the ways he has tried to come between them, friends dont spill each others secrets. They dont betray each others trust.
The murder at the end of the summer doesnt change all that.
BesidesKayla knows that the truth is not the whole story.
"Rissi (Always Forever Maybe) intersperses news reports, eyewitness testimony, personal letters and texts, and court transcripts to recount the eight summer weeks that led to a brutal murder at Camp Cavanick...Exceptional pacing creates a breathless, adrenaline-filled chase through Kaylas memories." Publishers Weekly "Musings on memory and perception add thematic complexity, and Kaylas biting commentary on the role of gender and race in the trial offer more food for thought. Readers...will be satisfied by the psychological tension and twists here." Bulletin of the Center for Childrens Books
