Everyone's Thinking It by Aleema Omotoni
4.0
I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review. Thank you, NetGalley!
EVERYONE'S THINKING IT is definitely one of those stories where you come for the mystery and stay for the cast. Following two estranged Nigerian cousins, Iyanu and Kitan, as they navigate their private high school after everyone's secrets get mysteriously leaked, this YA struck a good balance between fun (again, with a great cast that had awesome rep and felt realistic, along with a lot of shenanigans and mess) and serious (tackling issues like biphobia, colorism, black fishing, and racism) and was overall a really great read. I genuinely wish I had more to say articulately, but I'm so stuck on how greatly executed this was. I think it would make for a phenomenal movie or miniseries, and I will be recommending this one widely!!
