The Cheerleaders

The library is probably ready to kill me. It took me weeks to read this, because I kept putting it down to read other books. I've had this checked out for so long.
Anyway,
I just don't do well with mysteries and thrillers, but I keep trying. This one did not sway me toward the dark side. I liked Monica, I wanted to know more about her, but it quickly becomes her sister's story and it was frustrating me that everyone Monica hunted down and questioned...didn't really have anything to say. I liked Ginny, but she was clearly the “Velma” part of the operation that clicks keys on the computer to pull up insta-info.
The tie-in at the end with Ginny's father did nothing for me. Is it a set up for a sequel with Ginny as a killer? Also, after being told repeatedly that Monica needed to “connect the dots” the dots do not connect and the whole thing felt kind of pointless. Also, the whole Brandon (Brendon?) thing is just too friggin coincidental to make any sense.
So, in short, not a good read for me.
