The voice of our heroine, Addy, is one that displays all the intricacies of being a teenage girl. As narrator, she's unsure of a lot, but she wears confidence as a cheerleader, as the lieutenant to her squad captain, Beth. There are a lot of questions she's trying to answer about those around her, and the reader is along for every step, though some of Addy's behavior surprised me at certain turns. In a good way. I thoroughly enjoyed this audiobook, which was funny and biting and even eerie at times. I liked this much more than The Fever; the characters seemed more interesting and I absolutely loved the intensity of their cheerleading.

All I keep hearing now is "Don't you know that, Addy?" in Beth's biting teenage voice on loop in my brain. I know it's said at least twice, maybe more, but it seems to really encapsulate the tone of the novel.

Maybe I'll try more audiobooks since this was the first in over a decade; recommendations welcome.
