All You Never Wanted
by Adele Griffin
Publisher: Random House Books
Publication date: October 9, 2012
Genre: YA Fiction
Purchase:Barnes and Noble/Amazon/Book Depository
With my eyes closed and Alex's core friends all around me, it was like I'd become my big sister, or something just as good. And so who cared if they were calling it Alex's party? One thing I knew: it would be remembered as mine.
Alex has it all-brains, beauty, popularity, and a dangerously hot boyfriend. Her little sister Thea wants it all, and she's stepped up her game to get it. Even if it means spinning the truth to win the attention she deserves. Even if it means uncovering a shocking secret her older sister never wanted to share. Even if it means crying wolf.
Told in the alternating voices of Alex and Thea, Adele Griffin's mesmerizing new novel is the story of a sibling rivalry on speed.
Starred Review says, "The book is so raw that at times it's difficult to read-yet it's impossible to put down." This book promises to be suspenseful and impossible to put down and it spoke to me. This isn't a genre I typically read but I find myself drawn to. It is told in alternating voices of the two sisters and I love multiple points of view. Don't you?
What book are you waiting on?

I hadn't heard of this one before, but it definitely sounds intense! It's not the kind of YA I usually read either, but I'm so intrigued I may have to make an exception. Thanks for stopping by!
