Tell Your Friends by Lauren Wilson

A dark, addictive psychological thriller about obsession, family secrets, social media fame, and just how dangerous it can be when the carefully curated image begins to crack.

Crystal Shaw has spent nearly her entire life in front of a camera. Growing up as part of her mother's wildly successful family vlog, At Home with the Shaws, meant that almost nothing was private—not even the tragedy that changed Crystal's family forever.

University is supposed to be Crystal's chance to finally escape. But while her mother expects her to keep creating content for their millions of followers, Crystal has a different plan: expose the truth about her family and bring their carefully constructed online world crashing down.

Then she meets Alyssa.

An aspiring journalist with a troubled past, Alyssa seems eager to help Crystal with her secret project. But Alyssa has her own connection to the Shaws—and her obsession with the seemingly perfect family runs much deeper than Crystal realizes.

As secrets surface and trust begins to unravel, the friendship between Crystal and Alyssa becomes an increasingly dangerous game.

Tell Your Friends is a tense, twisty psychological thriller exploring influencer culture, toxic obsession, family secrets, identity, and the disturbing consequences of turning real life into content.
