In My Dreams I Hold a Knife by Ashley Winstead
5.0

I just... WHAT?

2021 was the year of crazy college reunion books, but this one takes the cake! A mysterious murder where everyone has a motive, all tied up with salacious greeklife and dark academia vibes. It's a slow burn, yet the pages flew by so quickly. I would find myself saying "just one more chapter" after each one. It's not perfect, but it feels real. It's difficult to know who to trust, though I loved Jack and Coop from the get go.

But the ENDING. It feels like the book has a real ending at 80% in, then a little bonus alternate ending for the "real fans" who stick it out until the end. And dang..... DAAAANG.
