The Anniversary by Alex Finlay revisits two Nebraska teens on every May 1st from 1992 to 2001. Beneath the hunt for a serial killer, Finlay tells a quieter story about trauma, lost innocence, and the friendship that survives a decade of bad anniversaries. The book has real flaws, but its heart earns forgiveness.
