We Were Never Here - Andrea Bartz

 We Were Never Here - Andrea Bartz

She read]

What happens when a friendship turns toxic? This is another book that has been on my TBR for quite a while and I finally found time to read it.

Best friends for ten years, Emily and Kristen head to Chile for a vacation that goes terribly wrong. There is an assault, a murder, and a cover up. Seems the same thing happened on their last trip a year ago to Vietnam. Upon their return home, guilt consumes Emily, the relationship begins to unravel, secrets about Kristen’s history and personality are revealed, and danger lurks. 

The story is a bit over the top, but it is a fast paced, engrossing read. There is gaslighting, manipulation, obsession,  toxicity, some naivety on one friend’s part, and pathological behavior on the other’s.

Thanks to #NetGalley and @RandomHouse for the DRC.
