Review : Wrong Crowd - Lisa Helen Gray

Review: Wrong Crowd - Book #1 Kingsley Academy - Lisa Helen Gray - June 2019

One of the most recent tropes that I have found myself loving is the Bullymance's aka Bully romances and if you are lucky they come sometimes with an RH feel to it as well. Wrong Crowd has Ivy going to live with her aunt who turns out to be really wealthy and living in their family mansion. This is a surprise to Ivy as she didn't realize she had any living family beside her mother and she definitely didn't grow up in wealth or any hint of it. Where was her mother's family, when Ivy was struggling and her mother needed help? When Ivy returns though, it isn't with open arms - it seems that the neighborhood is angry and vicious that she is even here. The thing is she doesn't know why and it's not like she knows any of them. Being here , Ivy will discover that her mother wasn't the person that she knew and that something happened to her which caused her to act out and that it was covered up as of course we know that's what people with truckloads of money are definitely famous for - sweeping up incidents under the rug so that it doesn't cast a scandal on the family name and tarnish their reputation. Of course, the incident had a domino effect on Ivy's mother's childhood friends and now their kids hate Ivy with a passion and are going out of their way to make it clear that she doesn't deserve to be here let alone live and be one of them. What will happen though when the current generation realize that the stories they grew up hearing aren't exactly the truth and that Ivy isn't like her mother? Wrong Crowd was an amazing read and finished on a major Cliffhanger which I was like NOOOOO as it just means we have to wait for ages for the next book to find out what happens next. If you are like me and loving the current trope, then Wrong Crowd is a book to add to your reading list.
