Holy Cow you guys! Aggro was PHENOMENAL! Like top reads of 2020, phenomenal! I went into this book expecting something totally different than what I got, but I wasn’t disappointed by this fact in.any.way. This book is so powerful it will grab a hold of you and embed itself so deeply into your mind, heart and soul it will consume you until you have devoured every single word.
Aggro is the story of Breeze, Chase and Kai, three teens bound by grief over the death of Violet. Violet was Breeze’s best friend, twin sister to Chases and in a toxic relationship with Kai. This is a story of how the three of them deal with this tragic loss, as not only individuals but together. My heart felt like it was in a vice over and over. Just the amazing writing of CLJ and CG was so vivid and with such clear attention to detail I had to keep reminding myself ( you are not there, you don’t really know these people Irl) because I was a mess y’all.😭 Seriously, hot mess express! 😭😭
They set out on a quest desperate for answers. Three teens plagued by guilt, hurt, anger, and survivor's guilt. They are all working to put the pieces together to find out what happened the night of Violet’s violent death and the secrets she had been keeping from everyone that led up to her death. But will they be able to handle the truth when they get it?
Now, if you are like me, a bit of a cover ho, you assume by the amazing cover that we are getting a story from a Hero’s POV. However that isn’t how this goes down at all. It is even better. This amazing story takes place in a picturesque beach island town. We get POV’s from Breeze, Chase and Kai and I love this so much because each one is struggling in a different way to come to terms with what has happened. To have the story told in their voice as they are experiencing the different emotions is so emotional and powerful, it just takes the story to another level of awesome, and I’m so happy the authors did it this way. These three and their constant struggle with wondering who could have committed this crime and maybe at times even wonder about each other.
What I love is that no matter how many times you think you might have figured what’s going on or what’s gonna happen next CoraLee and Carrie pull the rug right out from under you.
I loved all of these characters. Breeze was the sweet wallflower that was always the silent shadow behind her outgoing best friend, Violet. She assumed she was never seen but that is far from the truth. For the longest time she had a crush on Chase but sister code prevented her from ever making a move.
Chase was hot, he was also a getaround girl hopper. He loved his sister and he loved Breeze. It seemed like he loved her like a sister but who knows maybe it could have been more at one time? 🤷🏼♀️
Then you have Kai, the one they call an Aggro, “which was an aggressive surfer, taking chances most of us wouldn’t.” He was gorgeous and tattooed, but when he was with Violet they were all wrong for each other. They were the very definition of toxicity. But when he looked at Breeze. Well that was a different story.
I won’t say anymore as not to give spoilers, but you NEED this book in your life like you need AIR. It will draw you in like a rip tide and pull you under in its clutches and twist you, turn you about, take your breath, scare you, and then finally spin you back
out the other side. You will never be the same, you will remember the feeling of it always.
I can’t possibly recommend this book enough. If I could custom order a book to be written for me with all the things I want in it, this would be what was delivered to me, but then when I opened the box and started reading my book there would be unexpected bonus material in it. That’s how fantastically, phenomenally, unforgettably amazing this book is!! CoraLee June and Carrie Gray slayed this book!!
You get murder, mystery, suspense, sexy, angsty goodness. But you also get the swoony, sweet, and forgiveness. You get a book where enemies become allies. I was on the edge of my seat and I was here for it all! I will definitely re-read this book. Because honestly I’m not ready to let these characters go. That epilogue y’all. I’m pretty sure my jaw is still ON.THE.FLOOR!
*I voluntarily reviewed an advanced complimentary copy of this book. But I loved it so much I had to buy a copy the second it released because I want to own it in every possible format.

Instantly hooked! A mystery you won’t solve until the LAST PAGE! Get ready :)
Aggro is an aggressive or violent behavior. This book had me hooked from the first page. It was so real. The characters dealt with emotions that were raw and extremely relatable. The book is about a girl who is murdered. And how grief is experienced among everyone involved differently. Grief breaks the characters down and shows you their real colors. It also shows you the opposite spectrum of grief. When the characters have healed and showed their growth. This book was so complex yet captivating. It is not a quick growth for the characters they experience it all. Grief, pain, denial, bargaining, and acceptance all of the stages of grief. I’ve never read a CLJ or CG book but boy they’re now on my favorites list. The mystery this story has to offer has you on your toes. You think you know who did it...but you don’t until the last chapter. I braced myself. The love story was so elegant and beautifully written as well. Breeze is a shy girl who wants to be in the background rather than the spotlight. Her best friend is murdered. She is left to pick up the pieces and try and solve what happened to gain closure for herself, her best friends brother, and her best friends ex boyfriend. I absolutely adored her entire narrative and she was so mature for a teenager. Again, the issues in this story are so real and vulnerable you can’t help but feel what is happening. Definitely top 10 favorite books of 2020!
