Produktbeschreibung
Two former best friends return to their college reunion to find that they're being circled by someone who wants revenge for what they did ten years before-and will stop at nothing to get it-in this "propulsive" (Megan Miranda, bestselling author of The Girl from Widow Hills) psychological thriller.

A lot has changed since Ambrosia Wellington graduated from college, and she's worked hard to create a new life for herself. But then an invitation to her ten-year reunion arrives in the mail, along with an anonymous note that reads, "We need to talk about what we did that night."

It seems Ambrosia's past-and the people she thoughts she'd left there-aren't as buried as she believed. Amb can't stop fixating on what she did or who she did it with: larger-than-life Sloane "Sully" Sullivan, Amb's former best friend, who could make anyone do anything.

At the reunion, Amb and Sully receive increasingly menacing messages, and it becomes clear that they're being pursued by someone who wants more than just the truth of what happened that first semester. This person wants revenge for what they did and the damage they caused-the extent of which Amb is only now fully understanding. And it was all because of the game they played to get a boy who belonged to someone else and the girl who paid the price.

Alternating between the reunion and Amb's freshman year, The Girls Are All So Nice Here is a "chilling and twisty" (Book Riot) "page-turner" (Entertainment Weekly) about the brutal lengths girls can go to get what they think they're owed, and what happens when the games we play in college become matters of life and death.

Rezensionen
"The Girls Are All So Nice Here" kept me up all night - literally. I tore through the book in less than 24 hours, forcing my eyes to stay open as if the remaining pages wouldn't be there in the morning."-USA Today

"A college reunion. A toxic friend group. Revenge. All the makings of a page-turner are here in Flynn's book." -Entertainment Weekly

"This chilling and twisty thriller centers on two former best friends who return to their alma mater for a college reunion. Once there, they quickly realize someone is targeting them for revenge for what they did ten years ago. Devastatingly dark and thrumming with tension, The Girls Are all So Nice Here offers a juicy, unflinching portrait of the complexities of friendship and social ambition."-Book Riot

"The story takes place in two alternating time periods: the freshman year for the girls of the story, and the ten-year reunion for the same bunch. Somewhere back in the early times but not revealed until much later, terrible things have happened on campus, and somebody's going to pay a penalty. Many secrets are withheld until late in the story, and while this is a familiar device, Flynn makes it work with special power by piling on the details in numbers and in specificity. Sex, betrayal, scheming - all come into play in dark and heavy loads. Is there someone to root for in all of this? Only at the reader's peril."-The Toronto Star

"A sharp, pitch-black thriller that takes the mean-girls trope to another level." -KIRKUS

"With The Girls Are All So Nice Here, Flynn takes the insecurities that come with being a young woman and sharpens them into a deadly point. I read open-mouthed as Amb navigated the complex social calculus of her worlds right up until that stinging kick of a final chapter left me breathless."-Chandler Baker, New York Times bestselling author of Whisper Network

"Laurie Flynn smartly examines the darker complexities of friendship, ambition, and social dynamics in this propulsive thriller. Full of twists and surprises, THE GIRLS ARE ALL SO NICE HERE reminds us that the past has a long reach, and secrets never stay buried forever. I couldn't stop reading until the shocking final twist!"-Megan Miranda, bestselling author of The Girl From Widow Hills

"Alternating between Amb's time at college and the present day, Flynn reveals the darkness girls are capable of, building toward a thrillingly unsettling ending."-Electric Literature

"Dark, twisted, and utterly gripping, THE GIRLS ARE ALL SO NICE explores the unparalleled cruelty of mean girls on a leafy college campus. This propulsive thriller has a killer ending to match its killer title."-Robyn Harding, bestselling author of The Swap

"THE GIRLS ARE ALL SO NICE HERE is twisted, compelling, and so very dark. This devastating story about the friends we keep-and those we don't-is surprising in the best possible way. Flynn's first adult fiction book makes me wonder what she'll come up with next."-Samantha Downing, USA Today bestselling author of My Lovely Wife and He Started It

Juicy, twisty, and relentlessly unsettling, THE GIRLS ARE ALL SO NICE HERE is more than a thriller; it's a masterful portrait of the complexities of female friendships and the raw yearning to fit in. With characters unflinchingly wrought in all their vulnerability and a setting so real, I felt I'd visited the Wesleyan campus myself, this book is a brilliant and wickedly wild ride. I couldn't put it down. -Andrea Bartz, bestselling author of The Lost Night and The
