The Cousins is Karen M. McManus's worst book. I kinda liked the ending, but the book itself was so boring, literally nothing happened until the last few chapters.

One of us is lying is one of my least favourite books of all time 😂 although I'm not sure I can really say that because I only read about 6 pages before I guessed the twist, looked it up to check because I assumed I must be wrong and it can't be that obvious...😑... I was right and it was the same old harmful mental health stereotypes and just had no time for it 🙃

I read The Cousins this year and thought it was okay, I liked some stuff, didn't like others, the book was overall too long for how little happens and one relationship felt a bit icky because of how it was set up; I haven't read One of us is lying, since I don't think I'll like it but I found Two Can Keep a Secret really fun; just know that they're all VERY MUCH YA, you'll probably think of them as "young YA"

Agree, I don't think The Cousins is her strongest book. She usually writes great couples/friends relationship, but not in this one.

Please don't feel bad about skipping Cousins. It is McManus' worst book. The premise is interesting, but there was not true connection to the characters, there were so many characters that it sometimes felt hard to keep track of, and the pay off was actually kind of lame, in addition to the book just being slow. Her other books are far better.
