We Made It All Up by Margot Harrison -> Starting April 16th, 2022

[Aly]

Celeste is the talk of the town when she moves to Montana from Montreal, but the only friend she makes is Vivvy, the heir to the town’s name and a social pariah. Inspired by a passion-fueled school incident, they begin writing a love-story fan fic between the popular guy and the school stoner, one that gradually reveals Celeste’s past. While their bond makes Celeste feel safe and alive again, Vivvy keeps prodding Celeste to turn fantasy into reality. When they finally try, one drunken night on a dark mountainside, Celeste is the one who ends up kissing golden boy Joss. And Joss ends up dead.

Celeste doesn’t remember the end of that night and can’t be sure she didn’t deliver the killing blow. Could she still be that scared of getting close to a boy? Secrets are hard to keep in a small town, and even Vivvy seems to suspect her. Exploring the winding passages of the cave where Joss died, Celeste learns he had his own dark secrets, as does Vivvy. The town isn’t as innocent as it appears.

Starting this now!

[Aly]

I'm starting tonight also!

[Alaina]

Woohoo!

[Aly]

25% (view spoiler)[ I don't really understand why they wouldn't just tell the sheriff they were by the cave with Joss. They'll look way guiltier when they eventually get caught.

I wonder if Celeste was drugged? Maybe her friend did it? (hide spoiler)]

[Aly]

50% (view spoiler)[ Did each member of this horrible 'Defile' club get defiled? Like raped? Because that is beyond terrible and they should definitely tell Vivvy's aunt.

Also, someone reported a couple on the bench. Did Joss get them to the bench then go back up to the cave? (hide spoiler)]

[Aly]

75% (view spoiler)[ I think Vivvy has a crush on Celeste but realized that she didn't feel the same way and is now setting her up. She seems crazy, with all these lies she's told. I hope Celeste can clear herself (hide spoiler)]

[Aly]

100% (view spoiler)[ I did start to think Bram did it, but only a little bit before it was revealed. I feel bad that he thought he was saving her from Joss and I'm glad he didn't get a long time in jail.

Vivvy wasn't a good friend to Celeste, telling people she was obsessed with Joss and trying to push her down the stairs. I guess it's good they didn't end on horrible terms, but they should leave things at that. (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

9%: (view spoiler)[Had a feeling someone was going to die. (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

25%: (view spoiler)[Okay, what the hell? I have so many questions. Was she drugged or just really blacked out drunk? It didn't really seem like she drank that much to me but maybe I misread that. (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

Aly wrote: "25% ..."

Yes, lots of questions about what happened!

[Alaina]

38%: (view spoiler)[Not a fan of Bram right now. Like am I supposed to trust him or no? Am I supposed to trust anyone really? (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

50%: (view spoiler)[If I thought things were already messing with my brain, I feel like it's a puddle right now. Could someone from the beach have been Joss? Or someone else? Someone has to be lying or something, right? I just don't trust everything right now. (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

Aly wrote: "50% ..."

OMG that would be completely horrible and yes they should tell someone!

[Alaina]

66%: (view spoiler)[Wait, so those girls are just blindly trying to get her arrested for this? They don't even know that it's true but since she's a weirdo to them that means she automatically did it? Cruel people. (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

75%: (view spoiler)[Ah, okay. Maybe what happened earlier makes sense if Halsey really isn't over Joss. Still messed up though. (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

Aly wrote: "75% [spoilers removed]"

Hmm.. yes, I could totally see that.

[Alaina]

84%: (view spoiler)[Oh god. Please tell me that they didn't rape him. Or is this the cave where people go to have consensual sex? (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

100%: (view spoiler)[Wow. So, I was suspicious of the wrong person in the beginning. Dang it. Still a good mystery book and it definitely makes me sad what happened to certain people. (hide spoiler)]

[Alaina]

Aly wrote: "100% ..."

I was ALSO suspicious of him! What the!

[Aly]

Alaina wrote: "100%: [spoilers removed]"

Same! I guess that made it a good mystery since I didn't know who the killer was

Yes! The then and now definitely had us constantly guessing.
