The Reunion

Publication Date: August 29, 2023

Genre: YA Thriller

Publisher: Margaret K. McElderry Books/ Simon & Schuster

From the author of I Killed Zoe Spanos comes a YA thriller in the vein of The White Lotus and Karen M. McManus’s The Cousins following a doomed family reunion at a posh Caribbean resort, where old grudges and dangerous secrets culminate in murder.

Eleven Mayweathers went on vacation. Ten came home.

It’s been years since the fragmented Mayweather clan was all in one place, but the engagement of Addison and Mason’s mom to the dad of their future stepbrother, Theo, brings the whole family to sunny Cancún, Mexico, for winter break. Add cousin Natalia to the mix, and it doesn’t take long for tempers to fray and tensions to rise. A week of forced family “fun” reveals that everyone has something to hide, and as secrets bubble to the surface, no one is safe from the fallout. By the end of the week, one member of the reunion party will be dead—and everyone’s a suspect:
The peacekeeper: Addison needs a better hiding place.
The outsider: Theo just wants to mend fences.
The romantic: Natalia doesn’t want to talk about the past.
The hothead: Mason needs to keep his temper under control.

It started as a week in paradise meant to bring them together. But the Mayweathers are about to learn the hard way that family bonding can be deadly.

Rating & Review

5 out of 5

This might be geared towards young adults, but I was hooked from the opening and ended up carrying the book around while running errands in case I had a few moments to keep reading. This definitely gave me Gossip Girl (TV adaptation) meets Revenge vibes, and I loved it. Getting to see the story from multiple POVs helped you to not only really understand the characters, but piece together the story. The characters have great depth, and it’s easy to distinguish their voices (even if you didn’t have their names at the start of the chapters). Everyone has secrets, and unraveling everything the further in you get just adds to the allure of the story overall. An excellent book that I would recommend to all thriller lovers!
