Before We Were Innocent: Reese's Book Club
Description
Reese's Book Club Pick December 2023 A summer in Greece for three best friends ends in the unthinkable when only two return home. . . . Ten years ago, after a sun-soaked summer spent in Greece, best friends Bess and Joni were cleared of having any involvement in their friend Evangeline's death. But that didn't stop the media from ripping apart their teenage lives like vultures. While the girls were never convicted, Joni, ever the opportunist, capitalized on her newfound infamy to become a motivational speaker. Bess, on the other hand, resolved to make her life as small and controlled as possible so she wouldn't risk losing everything all over again. And it almost worked. . . . Except now Joni needs a favor, and when she turns up at her old friend's doorstep asking for an alibi, Bess has no choice but to say yes. She still owes her. But as the two friends try desperately to shake off their past, they have to face reality. Can you ever be an innocent woman when everyone wants you to be guilty?Show more

This book captivated my interest. It's all about the tricky friendships between girls when they're teenagers and how things change as they get older. The author mixes together the past and the present to tell an exciting story about lies, betrayal, and facing the truth. 😬 I thought it was great! 😊
Three teens travel to Greece and two come out with a secret. A quick read about friendship, a little bit thriller, and a lot of how to stay in or out of the spotlight.
this was SUCH an amazing & quick read. exactly what i was looking for - a mystery set in the summer time. i loved the flashbacks & loved comparing the MCs while they were teenagers to current time as adults. the ending was just the cherry on top
