More About This Book

  1. Reviews

Publishers Weekly
“McCreight (Where They Found Her) crafts a tense, atmospheric narrative that sends the teens reeling from one surprise after another…”

Justine Magazine
“The mystery, plot twists and cryptic clues make this one perfect for fans of Pretty Little Liars.”

Center for Fiction
“The Outliers is evidence of McCreight’s talent: to write detective stories that sensitively stalk the territories of young troubled minds.”

Booklist
“Best-selling author McCreight makes her YA debut with a heart-pounding thriller that ends on a cliffhanger. Wylie has struggled with anxiety her whole life, but after her mother’s accidental death in a car accident, it worsens to the point of agoraphobia. But when her best friend Cassie goes missing and texts her for help, Wylie is the first in line to save her—setting out for the Maine woods with Cassie’s boyfriend, Jasper, in tow. But their rescue mission hits some snags, and, upon arrival, Wylie’s world as she knows it is upended. Could her mother’s death actually have been on purpose? And did her dad have something to do with it? This fast-paced thriller will have readers pinned to their seats with all the twists and turns in the second half….the novel has an intriguing premise regarding emotional intelligence and the female mind. Thought provoking and chilling, this is guaranteed to grow McCreight’s fan base. HIGH-DEMAND BACKSTORY: With film options already in the works, best-selling, award-winning McCreight’s YA debut is set to be a big splash.”

Mystery Scene
“The Outliers is a gripping, unique mystery, and readers will eagerly await the rest of the trilogy.”

Popcrush
“[An] unexpected, quick-paced and shocking read…”

Maximum Pop
“The Outliers by Kimberly McCreight has been described as ‘break-neck. We take that ‘break-neck’ and raise it a ‘badass.’”

Roscoe Books
“McCreight brings her taut writing style and clever plotting to YA in a fun start to a new series…This one ends with your heart in your throat. McCreight ties up just enough ends to leave you satisfied, before she takes a pair of scissors and CUTS ALL THE ENDS. Can I pre-order the second one now?”

Me My Shelf and I
“Every single page of this book is test of your endurance and ability to judge situations – don’t worry when you get every single one of those judgment is wrong. I will be here to hold your hand and assure you there’s nothing wrong with you – Kimberly McCreight is just THAT good. So I ask you, are you up to the challenge of trying to guess correctly about THE OUTLIERS? I have been dying for this kind of mystery/thriller in Young Adult for so long, it’s perfection printed and I CAN NOT wait to see what happens in the next book!”

A Glass of Wine
“You won’t want to miss this book if you are a fan of mysteries where the answers lead to more questions. The breakneck pacing, the increasing tension and it’s addictive quality all make this a must read. Kimberly McCreight continues to showcase her talent for crafting entirely engrossing mysteries, and I am desperate for book two in this promising series. If you haven’t yet discovered this author make it your summer goal to do just that.”
