Summary

Love, loyalty, lies...twin sisterhood has a heartbreaking price.

When Victoria returns to her childhood home for her twin sister's wedding after decades of a strained relationship with her family, she recalls the devastating trauma of the high school romance that tore her family apart.

As a pretty, popular high school sophomore, Victoria discards boys as easily as she finds them, unlike her bookish and brilliant twin. When the senior football captain with a reputation of his own develops an interest in her sister, Victoria becomes wary. She’ll do anything to protect her twin, no matter what the cost.

Told as a flashback years later as Victoria wrestles with disastrous adult relationships and her sister's impending marriage, secrets kept for decades bait an emotional minefield. Will painful memories destroy their chance to reunite, or is it too late?

Written by two sisters, incorporating real adolescent memories with fictional details, American Girls looks at the best and worst of growing up girls in the 1980s Midwest and the devastating power secrets can wield over the closest of relationships.

Perfect for fans of Jodi Picoult and Joshilyn Jackson.

Slow burn

I did enjoy this book but I did find it quite slow to get in to. I wanted to know what would happen so this kept me engaged, but the narrator just was not for me. Overall, I would recommend the story.
