yikes. I barely made it past the first chapter. It felt like this was too try hard. The language used, the way the characters talked. I know not everyone's high school experience is the same but this felt like the author was trying so hard to connect with teens. Insert how-do-you-do-fellow-kids.gif

This is too cringeworthy, none of the characters are nice and Annie is just awful. I feel so sorry for Kerry that she was invented by the author. Nobody deserves this, not even fictional characters.

Good vulva to you! This book is gripping from page one ans the mystery just gets deeper and tenser with each chapter!

Having not really known much about the book other than someone being murdered with a menstrual cup, I was intrigued because well How? Who? WHY? and  it’s definitely and interesting choice of weapon. I won’t spoil anything else though this isn’t really a spoiler since it’s on the blurb.

I found there were quite a few laugh out loud moments in this book for me, and I really wnjoyed reading the investigative skills of the main characters, Kerry and Annie.

Murder on a School Night is also really feminist and there is one character that will absolutely boil your blood, and then boil your blood some more! I loved that Annie would speak her mind - and rightly so!

Murder on a School night is a brilliant teenager-turned-murder-detective book, and if you enjoyed Holly Jackson’s A Good Girls Guide to Murder series, you would definitely enjoy this, I mean don’t you want to find out why and how someone was found dead, suffocated with a menstrual cup? And why others also turn up dead after…

I really loved this book and I am giving it 4.5 stars!
