Good Girls Lie

Set at an elite all-girls boarding school, the story follows Ash Carlisle as she transfers in after a tragic scandal. Right away, the atmosphere feels tense and uneasy—everyone’s hiding something, friendships are layered with power plays, and nothing feels as perfect as it looks. The mystery builds slowly at first, but once it picks up, it really picks up.

I loved the setting—it gives serious “rich kids with dark secrets” vibes—and Ellison does a great job weaving together multiple perspectives without it getting confusing. There are plenty of twists, some genuinely surprising moments, and that constant feeling that you can’t fully trust anyone.
