Flavor of the week:

Complicit
Stephanie Kuehn
Publication date: June 24th 2014
by St. Martin’s Griffin
Two years ago, sixteen-year-old Jamie Henry breathed a sigh of relief when a judge sentenced his older sister to juvenile detention for burning down their neighbor’s fancy horse barn. The whole town did. Because Crazy Cate Henry used to be a nice girl. Until she did a lot of bad things. Like drinking. And stealing. And lying. Like playing weird mind games in the woods with other children. Like making sure she always got her way. Or else.
But today Cate got out. And now she’s coming back for Jamie.
Because more than anything, Cate Henry needs her little brother to know the truth about their past. A truth she’s kept hidden for years. A truth she’s not supposed to tell.
Trust nothing and no one as you race toward the explosive conclusion of this gripping psychological thriller from the William C. Morris Award-winning author of Charm & Strange.

Complicit!
I’ve read good reviews of this one and I am really excited to have a copy of this book! Faye from The Social Potato said this book was a big mindfuck and it was very entertaining. 😀

I just ordered Sins & Secrets by Jessica Sorensen. I didn’t know that one was coming. Missed it. Complicit sounds amazing.

Really excited for Complicit and In The End! Looks like another great week in books:-)
Kristen@My Friends Are Fiction
In the End releases next week! Ahh, I thought it was next month. Seems I have my dates all wrong. I guess I need to get that review written up. Thanks for helping set me straight, haha! 🙂

Wow so many releases! I’m excited for Complicit and Better Homes and Hauntings.
Bonnie @ For the Love of Words
I’ve been hearing some pretty fabulous things about Complicit. I have yet to check out anything by that author but both of hers books sound super good!

Wickedpedia has to be one of the worst titles I’ve ever seen.
Giselle
LOL I agree! O_O
Pili
For this week I only have In The End preordered but I also have an ARC of Rain that I really ought to get onto reading!
Complicit sounds really good but I want to read Charm & Strange before jumping into that one!
Savannah
Lots of amazing books hitting the shelves!
