But her town’s bullies, particularly the cruel and beautiful Melody Davenport, have never let her live it down. She’s pretty sure she didn’t mean to do it. She can’t remember anything from that day. When she was a child, Cassidy Pratt accidentally started a fire that killed her neighbor. If you love fast paced YA thrillers (with delightfully creepy covers), this is a perfect summer read.A compulsively readable debut with a narrator who can’t be trusted, perfect for fans of Natasha Preston. There are a few twists and turns and although I guessed who did it pretty early on, that didn’t lessen my enjoyment of the story. I read this nearly in one sitting, it’s such an easy story to get lost in. It’s one of those books you sit down to read a chapter or two and you look up and you’ve been reading for hours. Little Creeping Things is an addictive read. There is also a romance plot which I found a little on the irritating side, being much more interested in the murder and the mysteries surrounding the fire.
The story also has plenty of typical high school drama with crushes and mean girls in this small town. She is plagued by her guilt over the fire and it’s interesting to watch her tangle herself deeper and deeper in this mystery. Cassidy is a fascinating unreliable narrator, constantly questioning if what she’s seen is real. Little Creeping Things is a fun and really solid YA thriller. Cassidy must race to discover who murdered Melody and prove she had nothing to do with it. As Cassidy begins to panic she receives a text – I’m so glad we’re in this together. At party Cassidy jokes about murdering Melody and days later Melody goes missing in the exact way Cassidy suggests. On top of the guilt she is frequently bullied by Melody Davenport, one of the most popular girls in town. The story follows Cassidy, a teenage girl struggling with the guilt of starting a fire that killed her neighbour when she was a child. Little Creeping Things is a dark and compulsively readable thriller from Chelsea Ichaso. Now it’s up to Cassidy to figure out what really happened before the truth behind Melody’s disappearance sets the whole town ablaze. And then she gets a chilling text from an unknown number: I’m so glad we’re in this together. She even planned out the perfect way to do it.
