My first book by Karen M. McManus, this wasn't a 4 star or higher just because I wasn't totally invested in the story. I feel like if it had been longer I definitely would have liked it better.

This is anther great YA thriller by McManus. I don'  know how she does it.  
You'll Be the Death of Me had me hooked from the start  it had twists and turn and kept me guessing all the way through. I had some suspicions but they were all wrong 🤣

This was fun. I just really like how she writes friendships and relationships. The mystery was good and kept me entertained. I didn’t really see anything coming but I didn’t really try to figure it out. honestly my favorite part was the romantic relationship but what can I say I’m a sucker for romance.
