Trouble is a Friend of Mine
Stephanie Tromby
PD: 04.08.15 by Kathy Dawson Books
Summary:
Preparing to survive a typical day of being Digbys friend wasn't that different from preparing to survive the apocalypse.
Her first day not in school (because she cut) in her new hometown that will soon be her old hometown (because she's getting out of Dodge as fast as she can) Zoe meets Digby. Or rather, Digby decides he's going to meet Zoe and get her to help him find missing teenager. Zoe isn't sure how, but Digby—the odd and brilliant and somehow…attractive?—Digby always gets what he wants, including her help on several illegal ventures. Before she knows it, Zoe has vandalized an office complex with fake snow, pretended to buy drugs alongside a handsome football player dressed like the Hulk, had a throw-down with a possible cult, and, oh yeah, saved her new hometown (which might be worth making her permanent hometown after all.)
A mystery where catching the crook isn't the only hook, a romance where the leading man is decidedly unromantic, a story about friendship where they aren't even sure they like each other—Trouble is a Friend of Mine is a YA debut you won’t soon forget.

Thoughts:
Sherlock meets Veronica Mars meets Ferris Bueller Day's off sounds like the perfect combination and immediately grabbed my attention when I found the description from Barnes and Noble.
Wow this looks really interesting! I haven't heard of it before, but I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for it. Awesome pick!

I see some very mixed reviews about this book on Goodreads, perhaps it is one of those people either love or loathe? The synopsis it self definitly intrigues me :) Have a wonderful weekend, Katelynn.
