The book Reconstructing Amelia by Kimberly McCreight was much different than I had expected. It did have a lot of those soap opera twist but they were more elaborate then I had expected. Even though I didn't all of the good twist from the cover I do believe I was very close on the basics of the story.
I was correct on some of the parts like the mother and daughter relationship. In the story is about a single mom named Kate who has hard working job that requires most of her time and energy. Kate's daughter Amelia is a good and smart student. One day Amelia kills herself for some unknown reason but her mom doesn't believe that she killed herself but she thinks someone killed her. The rest of the story is about Kate putting the pieces of her daughters life back together to find out what really happened. As Kate goes through her daughters stuff she finds out how crazy her daughters life was. Even being right on that part I was wrong about Amelia's intents to tell her mom. I will not tell you what happens because it is a fun book I do recommend but I thought that it would have almost been Amelia's fault but she was just stuck and she didn't want to worry her mom. I also didn't expect the mom to also have so many secrets as well. The book was also much darker then I thought it would have been. Overall though it was an amazing book.
