One of the best murder mystery books I've read! Just when I thought I'd figured it out, there was more information to keep me guessing.

This book is bussin. Took me a minute to get into it. I haven’t been on a fiction kick in a hot minute, but I can honest to goodness tell you I was hooked after page 67. When Pip shares her four theories of the murder, I knew I’d finish the book before the day was over

Very excellent YA thriller. I clocked the killer pretty early on and one twist BUT it was still riveting and so fun. I downloaded it to keep me busy while running and then I went and barreled through it far too quickly. There are A LOT of trigger warnings - I’m tagging them all on StoryGraph

overall a very good book! the way the author told the story as a reporter and high school student was very interesting. however, it felt longer than it needed to be.
