I loved the characterization, the plot, and everything about this story. People Like Us shows you the vicious world of overprivileged young girls who are just plain bullies.
The plot of this story was fast paced but descriptive. As the reader, you see a remarkable change in Kay that left me no choice but to love her. Kay started off as another mean girl but as you read this story you start to see who Kay is underneath all the layers that she hides herself in. I found myself flipping pages as fast as possible while rooting for Kay.
As a pansexual woman, I was over the moon about this and I became deeply invested in the characters. Kay’s best friend Brie was a lesbian and there was plenty of other characters that were part of the LGBTQ community. This story had a lot of LGBTQ representation that I just LOVED! The main character(Kay) was bisexual. Wow, what a fantastic psychological thriller that is hands down a five star read! Dana Mele brings drama, mystery and revenge to the table in a fashion that will have you begging for more! Going into this book, I was a little hesitant because I thought this would be just another Pretty Little Liars. Because at Bates Academy, the truth is something you make…not something that happened. But if Kay’s finally backed into a corner, she’ll do what it takes to survive. The dead girl has left Kay a computer-coded scavenger hunt, which, as it unravels, begins to implicate suspect after suspect, until Kay herself is in the crosshairs of a murder investigation. But when a girl’s body is found in the lake, Kay’s carefully constructed life begins to topple. Now she’s a star soccer player whose group of gorgeous friends run their private school with effortless popularity and acerbic wit. Kay Donovan may have skeletons in her closet, but the past is past, and she’s reinvented herself entirely.
