If You Wrong Us Dawn Klehr Books
IF YOU WRONG US is a darkly appealing and incredibly chilling read. It’s a story that lulls the reader into a false sense of security as at first glance everything appears to be normal. It is only as the story progresses that the author introduces elements that hint that not all is as it seems, giving the reader a nagging sense of wrongness that will continue to grow as things become darker and more disturbing. And with alternating points of view that allow for a glimpse into the minds of characters who are frightening, devious, calculating, cunning, slightly unbalanced, vindictive, this twisty-turny tale will be positively riveting.Johnny Vega’s world came undone when he lost his mother in a fatal car crash that was ruled an accident. He came undone. And he didn’t know how to put the pieces of his shattered existence back together. At least not until he met Becca Waters who gave him a reason to pick himself back up, who gave him something to focus on other than his loss, who gave him an outlet for his anger.
Losing her identical twin sister in the crash that killed Johnny’s mom was like losing a piece of herself. As much as her sister’s controlling ways always bothered Becca, Brit’s absence was infinitely worse. Especially because she felt partly responsible for the crash that she was certain was no accident.
And the only way she could think of to ease her guilt would to be ensure that justice was served and that the person responsible for Brit’s death would not go unpunished.
Love and loss, vengeance, hate and heartbreak become inextricably interwoven in this fascinating and disquieting story of gamesmanship, manipulation, retaliation, revenge. Author Dawn Klehr has penned an absolutely thrilling story that will keep readers engaged and will leave them feeling uneasy and unsettled. She created characters who are sure to surprise, irk, repulse, horrify. She gradually peeled away their facades, revealing their true natures, uncovered their secrets, plots and schemes, and gave them a chance at redemption.
IF YOU WRONG US is shocking, suspenseful, and masterfully written. Each detail is inserted at just the right moment for maximum effect. Each twist is unexpected. Each turn of events takes the story to an even darker place.
This is not a story for the faint-of-heart. It is designed to make readers feel ill at ease, to give them goosebumps, to make their blood run cold. The romance is not of the feel-good variety. It is obsessive, unhealthy, codependent. The author does not promise an ending anywhere in the vicinity of happy.
What she does guarantee is a deliciously disconcerting and simply amazing read.

If You Wrong Us Dawn Klehr Books Reviews
I received this ARC from NetGalley in exchange for my review.
This was basically a YA version of Gone Girl, but not nearly as interesting. The book jumps between Johnny's POV in the present and Becca's POV in the past. Six months ago, there was a horrible car accident where Becca's twin sister and Johnny's mom dies. Before the accident, they had no interactions with each other. Then Becca becomes obsessed with getting revenge on the person who is responsible and she brings Johnny into her plan. There was no real distinction between the two voices. There were a few times where I actually had to look at the beginning of the chapter for the name of the person talking because I couldn't tell who was who. One of the two narrators was a bit disturbed and completely unreliable. That part was interesting. But I just couldn't get behind the plan they concocted. Once I figured out what they were doing, I was baffled about how they thought they would get away with it. I wasn't a fan of either character. One character was twisted and the other one was a total pushover. There was also this website where people anonymously confessed their sins. This website was a useless addition to the story that went absolutely nowhere. And towards the end of the book, there was also this random POV thrown into the mix that made no sense. The author didn't even label it, so it took a few minutes to realize who was talking. And the point of this random POV? A plot twist that once again went absolutely nowhere. The ending seemed as if it were hastily thrown together. I kept reading because I wanted to know how it would end, but it just left me a bit baffled and not in the good way
This is my first time reading this author, and certainly will not be the last, but as soon as I read the the title and saw the cover, which screams READ ME! Then the synopsis clinched it. I knew I had to read the book! From the start I was sucked right into the book. This is a dark, intense, gripping, breath stealing, edge of your seat, and full body shudder read. I loved the fact that we get both characters POV's and the way that the author lead us along dropping bits and pieces to keep us guessing, knowing obviously that there is a definite wrongness, going on. Add in the twists and turns that only have your head reeling even more, and you have an amazing read! I absolutely loved it! I was generously given a complimentary copy of this book for an honest review.
This book is compulsively readable—I could NOT put it down and read it in one sitting. From the start, you’re just dropped into these character’s heads as they race towards a finish line and the whole time I was gripping my going, oh my gosh, no, what are you doing? I loved the unreliable narrator stuff going on and the way the author played with that, twisting our perceptions so that we’re forced to question what we thought we knew. I just wanted to hug Johnny—he was the most sympathetic character that kept me reading and on the edge of my seat because I just wanted him to be okay. The whole second half of the book I felt like I was holding my breath, needing to keep reading so I could find out what was going to happen. Excellent five star read.
What an intense read! This dark and twisty novel kept me on the edge of my seat. I can't wait to read more of this author's work.
I read this in two sittings, only because I had to go to work in between. Otherwise I couldn't put it down. The story is engrossing with all it's twists and turns and additional surprises along the way. The chapters jump between 2 characters' points of view and as the story unfolds you find yourself not able to stop reading till you find out what happens! You won't see the end coming! This is a must read.
