Goodreads Synopsis:
Small towns are nothing
if not friendly. Friendship, Wisconsin (population: 688) is no
different. Around here, everyone wears a smile. And no one ever locks
their doors. Until, that is, high school sweetheart Ruth Fried is found
murdered. Strung up like a scarecrow in the middle of a cornfield.
Unfortunately, Friendship’s police are more adept at looking for lost pets than catching killers. So Ruth’s best friend, Kippy Bushman, armed with only her tenacious Midwestern spirit and Ruth’s secret diary (which Ruth’s mother had asked her to read in order to redact any, you know, sex parts), sets out to find the murderer. But in a quiet town like Friendship—where no one is a suspect—anyone could be the killer.

Why?:
This just sounds really good and I have
a good feeling about it. And I guess the more mystery YA books have been
catching my eye lately, I’m not sure why. Also, I really love that cover. I’m
not sure why, but I just think it’s adorable.
Any new releases you’re looking forward
to?
