I do not remember much about the book. The cover has a girl in a bathtub with plants and fish near the bottom of the bathtub representing a green ocean. It is about a girl who is kind of acquainted with an outcast girl who recently died in a motorcycle accident. One of the side characters teases the accident mentioning gory details about it. I think they live near an ocean or sea. I remember reading it around the near/end of 2018.

Possibly Olive's Ocean? The description is "Martha Boyle and Olive Barstow could have been friends, but they weren't. Weeks after a tragic accident, all that is left are eerie connections between the two girls, former classmates who both kept the same secret without knowing it. Now, even while on vacation at the ocean, Martha can't stop thinking about Olive. Things only get more complicated when Martha begins to like Jimmy Manning, a neighbor boy she used to despise. What is going on? Can life for Martha be the same ever again?"
Thank you! That's the book I was looking for :)
