I gave a pass to the case solved summary at the end of the last book but this one annoyed me. I read the book, why am I getting a TLDR at the end? Also these people are way too whiny if someone doesn’t answer their text immediately.

The characters weren't as lovable in this book as in the first, their character development at least of Alice and Iris from the first book made them a bit more unlikable. I would have liked more of Spike since he seems to becoming a romantic lead but he's still only a minor character in this book.
I was glad they solved the Mona Mooney mystery and I hope they solve Remmy Jackson's murder next! I did figure out the Mona story about halfway through the book, but since I read it over so long not the current day one, if I'd read it faster I would have figured it out easily.
Overall a solid but not amazing book.

I feel like the girls should have learned a little better communication skills with each other in the first book and certain "clues" that they kept missing were pretty obvious but besides that it was a fun story and I will be continuing the series when the next comes out.
