"The Counselors" by Jessica Goodman is Very Good!
The Counselors by Jessica Goodman goes back and forth in time, so if you have a problem with that like my wife does, this book is not for you. I thought this book was very good though! Three girls loved going to camp and considered it their "perfect place." Now they become counselors, but friendships will be tested and secrets revealed. I loved the characters and the story line! I was engaged in this book all the way. (Gerard's review, 5+ stars)

"The Guest List" by Lucy Foley
The Guest List by Lucy Foley revolves around a wedding. Jules and Will are going to be married. However, when old friends get together, secrets begin to get revealed. What should be happy ever after is not! The story is told by various people. It goes back to the past some but in my opinion, would have been better to be told chronologically. There are some twists and turns and the ending was a bit of a surprise. (Gerard's review, 4 stars)
Teaser from page 3: The guests freeze. They stare at one another. They are suddenly afraid again.

Teaser from page 17: One second she existed, and the next, she'd been erased. I stagger over to a bench by the wall and collapse.
