Very fast paced and very intriguing. I enjoyed how it kept me hooked and it was an original story. Nowadays so many books read the same. Highly recommend

Cheryl writes an interesting and timely novel concerning one of the unspoken threats facing society today

This book was beautifully written! It felt so real, like this is something that could really happen! Hooked from the first page! AMAZING!

When I read the author's bio, I knew that I would enjoy this book.
It was a well written, original and fascinating thiller that was based on true events.
I couldn't put it down and I would recommend it to everyone.

I have read close to 140 books so far this year which is an impressive if I do say so myself. I don’t think I have come across a book quiet like this one. Poison Girls is a must read for everyone who loves books. Natalie Delaney is a superhero with a pen in my eyes and Ana and Libby are strong girls who you struggle between wanting to hug and wanting to shake for the crazy things that Anna does for the sake of popularity and the cousin who straddles the line of wanting to keep her safe and fitting in. At first I wasn’t sure if I was going to like the story because it kind of reads like one big newspaper but in a way that made it more fun. This book is the story of young girls white girls who are getting killed by fentanyl laced heroin. This story takes an even darker turn when the story that Natalie is trying to write turns her into the prime suspect. I feel as though since this was based on true events it brings a more raw aspect to the story. Politics, Power, Drugs and Popularity should not over shadow that people died. I found myself feeling bad for Natalie because she wanted to save everyone and lost sight of herself getting herself into trouble. Over all this is a strong 4 star read that deserves a few hours of your time to read.
Thanks to Negalley to the author and publisher for my copy in exchange for my honest review.

A good book which was well written. I read this very quickly and very much enjoyed the story. A 5 star read for me

It was awesome. I liked the novel. It read like a newspaper.

This novel was fascinating! Originally it seemed it was going to be just another book about teens, gangbangers, and drug addiction, but it was so much more! Showing the dark side of journalism, politics, and police procedures, Reed delves deep into the underbelly of Chicago's drug trade to show "poison girls," young affluent white teens who are drawn to fentanyl-laced heroin which is usually a death sentence. Who is behind it all and is there something more sinister at work here than just the "usual suspects"? Journalist Natalie investigates and is drawn into the lives of two cousins, Anna and Libby as she tries to uncover the truth. But there are layers and layers of deception as she is drawn deeper and is implicated in one of the deaths. Based on real events, the novel is raw and poignant, questioning where does an investigative journalist draw the line and whom do we believe when there are lies everywhere? This is a real page-turner!

This book was such a slow starter that I found it hard to stay with it until the end. It did end up being a good story, once we finally got there.

This was a fantastic read. It kept me enthralled and I was shocked with some parts! I would recommend it to anyone!
