It was slightly more predictable than the last book but I enjoyed it nonetheless. Pip and Ravi were great in this book and I really loved seeing their relationship without it being the main plot of the book. The second book of the series got a lot more dark and tense than the first one was. The danger Pip and Ravi are in is getting higher.

♡ Missing Person

♡ True-Crime Podcast

♡ Amateur Detective Work

Again, much like the last book I loved the extra details in the formatting.  The little details like that are really lovely.

This book started out a bit cliché, I mean asking a teenager to help find your missing (possibly dead) brother seems totally full proof.  However, I did get invested after a while and the plot really went in a different direction than I was expecting.  The “who did it” was a bit random but it was entertaining to read about the journey.  

Pip having a true-crime podcast totally fits her vibe.  If she doesn’t become a detective after this I’m going to scream because she’s doing the whole police departments job at this point.

Spice Level: n/a
