Honestly, I’d love to read more of these kinds of relationships and eventually bury the stereotype of abusive step-parents. This book also was one of the few books which have shown a good relationship between the heroine and her step-father. I mean, Monica and her family don’t always see toe to toe, but in general her parents have always been supportive of her, even in times of grief. I also love how this book had a healthy representation of family dynamics. Pain isn’t supposed to teach you anything. Her thoughts are raw, blunt, and honest, which sometimes lead to confrontations that make my heart burst. She definitely stood out among all Thomas’s heroines because of her driven personality. I really enjoyed Monica’s character and personality. Five years later, the school wanted to hold a memorial for the cheerleaders but for Monica, she just wanted to forget. Monica’s sister, Jen, died along with a string of deaths involving people from the cheerleader team. Reading this book got me really curious as I delved into it further. I was really excited to read this book because Kara Thomas never disappoints. “ This house was made for someone without a soul.” First line and I was already captivated. Writing reviews for Kara Thomas’s books proved to be a great challenge for me, so I’ll try my very best to produce coherent thoughts along the way.

And somehow Monica is at the center of it all. Some people in town know more than they’re saying. Whatever happened five years ago isn’t over. There are the letters in her stepdad’s desk, an unearthed, years-old cell phone, a strange new friend at school. Only, Monica’s world is starting to unravel. Now the faculty and students at Sunnybrook High want to remember the lost cheerleaders. After her suicide, Sunnybrook High disbanded the cheer squad. No one wanted to be reminded of the girls they lost. Monica’s sister was the last cheerleader to die. The police shot him, so no one will ever know why he did it. Those two girls were killed by the man next door.

There are no more cheerleaders in the town of Sunnybrook.įirst there was the car accident-two girls gone after hitting a tree on a rainy night.

Remember the cheerleaders kara thomas
