Kill the Lax Bro
by Charlotte Lillie Balogh
fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven:
A mix
Everyone hates Troy Richards. Only 4 of them have the guts to do something about it.
When Andrew’s best friend, Troy gets him kicked off the lacrosse team, Andrew decides he’s had enough of how the golden boy treats people. So he rallies a group of girls, Sassi (the smart one), Tatum (the dealer) and Naomi (the quiet freshman). All of them hate Troy for different reasons, but they all have the same goal: “kill” the lax bro. Unfortunately, someone veers off course and Troy ends up dead. Who did it and how did they get here?
The 90’s setting in this was perfect! I always wished I was a teen back then and this took me there, trips to the mall and all! I loved the characters. Although complete cliches, the author really made them work for the story. Tatum was probably my favorite-she was hilarious!
I loved the back and forth timeline that made the story come together. This kept me interested and reading, needing to find out what happens at the end! And the end was definitely one I didn’t see coming! To think you know people…
Highly recommend this 90s YA thriller!!
