JUST A LITTLE JUNK …
… if anyone asks, that’s all that’s in your trunk. Definitely don’t say anything about the dead guy you just found back there!
Jodi Morgan is having a bad weekend.
After partying a little too hard, she wakes up with a monster hangover and almost no recollection of the night before. So imagine her surprise when she looks in her trunk and instead of finding a spare tire, she finds the last guy she’d danced with before blacking out.
Who is he? How did he get in there? How did he die? And oh dear lord, did she kill him!?
When her older brother’s best friend offers to help, things start looking up. They’ve known each other since she was thirteen, and ten years later, he still treats her like a little kid – surely, committing felonies has to trigger some sort of spark. Together, they wind up going on an adventure that takes them all over Los Angeles. From raves to penthouses to strip clubs. All in the search for the answer to her question.
Who is the dead guy in my trunk!?
I received this book for free in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.
“If a person couldn’t cry over a random dead body in their trunk, that they may or may not have killed, then what could a person cry over?
For what feels like years, I’ve wanted to read Stylo’s stories, I’ve heard nothing but good things and Just A Little Junk has definitely lived up to the hype, although I don’t believe this is her typical style, this story is on the lighter side, even i though it has lots of ‘adult themes’ I really can’t say more than that because well… nobody wants to read a dang spoiler!
Just A Little Junk took off like a horse out of the gait and didn’t slow down until it was over and even still now, sitting here typing up this review I want more! I *needed* to know how and why there was a dead body in Jojo’s trunk!
The chemistry and missed connection-ish ness between Archer and Jo was perfectly on point, yes, he was originally her brothers best friend, but over the years he became better friends with Jojo when her brother went to college and left his sister and best friend behind.
“I’ve always been a part of you. You just never noticed.”
This story was kind of reminiscent to “The Hangover” and will have you on the edge of your seat trying to figure it out. But when you find out what’s truly going on you head will spin and your mind will explode at the sheer brilliance of this book.
“She’d spent all weekend … thinking all of the wrong thoughts believing all the wrong truths.”
Just A Little Junk was like a cozy mystery on drugs! Check your trunk and strap in, so you too can find out who the dead body is in Jo’s trunk!
