We Know It Was You‘s intensity right at the beginning hooked this reader. Someone was definitely a psychopath! We’re not talking blood and guts– this killer in this works on an emotional level. Formatted as a detective’s log book with dates and times rather than chapters, this is a murder mystery with plenty of twists and turns. As part of the initial shock of an opening, readers meet Benny Flax, a nerd who attends the private Winship Academy in Atlanta. Benny had started a club years prior where he investigates unusual events in the school. The only other member of his club is Virginia. While he wants to solve mysteries, she just wants to be part of them. Throughout the story, these two will work as foils for each other until the mystery is solved. While Benny and Virginia are as innocent as can be, readers need to be aware that there are definitely upper high school/adult content to the point where there were times this reader felt uncomfortable and wondered the purpose of the talk about sex and body parts. It did not help the plot at all. Because of this, a novel that could have been a starred recommendation dropped significantly to just an additional purchase and not really recommended.
