Depending On You by Jessica Aiken-Hall – Review by Santana Hicks

Depending On You by Jessica Aiken-Hall
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Cate and Patti have been best friends since childhood. They went through everything together. All of their past memories have included each other, both the good AND the bad. Twenty years later, the two are still friends but they have drifted apart until the past gets dredged up causing Patti to come back to their childhood town to deal with it.

Twenty years ago, Cate killed a man. They thought she got away with it but it is what also caused the girls to drift apart. Turns out the case is being reopened and Cate is scared that she will be caught this time around. It turns out that Cate isn’t the only one with secrets in this town. Around every corner something else happens to test the friendship of both Cate and Patti.

Both characters were loveable in their own ways. Patti is a strong woman who takes care of everyone else which causes her to be independent and take everything on herself. Cate is an anxious mess, well that’s what she sees herself as, in reality she is just tired and scared from the traumatic life she led.

This book was a really interesting read. I can usually guess a lot of times what is going to happen. Turns out I was right but then a twist appears making me only a little right. The twist and turns of this book had me on the edge of my seat trying to guess what else is going to happen.
