Jughead is written by an author who has his books on consignment at my bookstore, and I figured since he is local and I’m going to try and sell some of his books for him that reading it would be beneficial and I’m glad I did! It’s super short, but it’s packed full of fast paced goodness!

Roger and Susan have just moved to Rico, Georgia, after a run in with the law that has left them with a probation officer and no bank account to speak of. The town seems rather quint, until they realize that their neighbors are trouble personified. We are sent on a fast paced ride as Roger tries to keep his head above water, and squares off with his neighbors over their excessive partying and aggression. The plot moves quickly and I got through it in less than a day, but it certainly packs a punch!

The ending tied up sort of neatly…but left plenty of little loose ends that could very well lead to some future confrontations with the Littles, his neighbors. I wouldn’t call this a light thriller, as it definitely has a few stomach turning moments, but it was a fantastic little read that fit perfectly into a lull in my reading schedule.

If you’re looking for something quick but addicting then Jughead might just be the thriller for you! I look forward to reading the second novel when it’s published.
