IF YOU CAN READ BETWEEN THE LINES, THIS BOOK COULD BE SPOILY FOR YOU!
My favourite book, first part of a trilogy.
There’s this book, followed by One Of Us Is Next, and, finally, One Of Us Is Back. Honestly, if you are in the older years of secondary school/sixth form or (in America) high school, this book is really relatable. Even though it’s a murder novel, there’s romance and day-to-day social situations that I relate to. In fact, you can probably relate to at least one of these character descriptions.
These are the main four characters in the first book:
Bronwyn:High-achiever, feeels like she had a reputation to uphold, but is willing to put it all on the line when she reconnects a boy from her middle school (the book is American), Nate Macauley. Her journey is about finding a balance between being ambitious, and the people she loves, whilst also coming to terms with the fact that she isn’t perfect. Furthermore, she learns to trust her gut instinct more as she takes risks with Nate, and, ultimately, with herself.
Addy (Adelaide):The blonde, popular girl everyone envies. Beautiful, liked and the girlfriend to one of the schools best looking boys, Jake Riordan. Perfect family, perfect social group, perfect boyfriend. Or not. The glue holding her perfect life together, is actually the thing that’s stopping her from reaching her full potential. Addy’s journey is about finding yourself, choosing your own skin and feeling good in it. Scrapping the cliche for who you are.

Cooper-The schools best baseball player.Pretty, girlfriend (Keely)and a great social life.Except that’s not Cooper at all and he knows it. But, if he tells the world who he really is he’ll be forgotten. Keely will hate him (probably forever) and worst of all, so will his Dad. He’ll stop being the‘perfect, talented son’ and become just ‘the son’ But,Cooper knows he can’t stay in the closet forever. He must come out.Will he lose it all…? (I’m not saying)Cooper’s story, is about being comfortable.And loving yourself for who you truly are.
Nate-Your typical drug-dealing, bad boy with a motorbike. Except he’s not your typical lad at all. His dad is an alcoholic. He has been for almost all of Nate’s childhood. And his coke-addict of a Mom…she’s not here. She’s probably dead. Despite these huge dents in his otherwise normal ‘bad-boy’ teenage life, Brownyn can’t seem to take her eyes off him. And, Nate finds himself staring back. His story is about gaining self-esteem. Knowing that you are enough for whatever you choose. Even if that choice is the discreetly gorgeous A* student, who’s probably out of your league.
Can Nate learn that he is enough for himself? And for a girl, that isn’t just a one-night stand?
Can you relate? If you can, even a bit, I would recommend reading this.

Get the Big one mug.A location on Google maps where a cousin in a large Irish Catholic Family lives. The court is shaped like a single nut-ball sack with a big cock.
This cousin receives “bag of Dicks” gifts and “I’m gay” gear from the other members of the SFFL fantasy football league.
Damon loves living at One Ball Court in Gloucester County, NJ! He will never move.

Damon loves living at One Ball Court in Gloucester County, NJ! He will never move.
Cousin Damon got beat by cousin Fran again in fantasy. Under Rule 2018:005, Fran now has the right to bust Damon’s balls all week.
As punishment, Fran mailed a 300 pack of “bag of dicks” gifts to Damon at One Ball Court.
None of us can figure out why Damon moved his family to a court shaped like a uni-testical hanging from a really long cock. Guess he wants a lifetime supply of those bags of dicks!

Get the two is one and one is none mug.Another one in the casket basically means going to kill you or to GET killed. My mum told me that when I was a little girl. So, the definition of it is I'm going to kill you or going to kill you.
Random guy: Dude, my grandma's about to die in a year.
Another random guy: Oof, another one in the casket.
