I flew through this book. It was a really easy read and I found myself constantly wanting to know what happened next. That being said, I guessed the mIn plot twist pretty early on. It was still a really interesting and heart pounding story though. And I didn’t expect the ending to take the turns it did and I’m so angry about it in a good way. I love an unreliable narrator, I think it really adds to the story when we don’t know if we can trust what we’re being told but holy shit. Like seriously I’m not sure if I can get myself to come to terms over what happened, and what never is going to happen. It’s not the best thriller I’ve ever read but in terms of YA thrillers I was pretty impressed. It was an interesting read with good pacing that took multiple twists and turns throughout.

I received an ARC of Complicit through a Goodreads giveaway and it was definitely on my most anticipated list of reads for this year. From what I understand, Stephanie Kuehn has a way with screwing with your mind through her writing and Complicit is proof of that. I really enjoyed reading Jamie’s story, through all the twists and more, and would recommend this novel to fans of Ellen Hopkins or the ABC Family television series Twisted.

It’s sure to keep readers on the edge of their seat until the very end. And maybe even after they’ve devoured the entire story, too.

Our story starts with a mysterious phone call to the main character Jamie Henry which wakes him during the middle of the night; he receives near silence on the other end. Jamie falls back asleep shortly after, and we flash forward to the following morning. His parents (adoptive parents, that is) have news and it isn’t pretty: his older sister, “Crazy” Cate Henry, has been released from jail.
