I did not expect to be so gripped by this book. Told between entries into her research project, and third person chapters about her movements, A Good Girls Guide to Murder follows Pip's attempt to uncover what really happened to Sal Sign and Andie Bell six years ago. Crime isn't really my genre, and so I was really impressed that I was gripped by this. The characters are brilliant and their relationships bring the book (and the stakes) to life. Switching between interview and chapter format kept the reading experience interesting, and the twists weren't what I was expecting. I can absolutely see why this book has swept the YA market by storm.

Love love loved this book! I first heard about it on tiktok and knew immediately the story was going to grip me - and it did. If it wasn't for sleep, I would have read the entire thing in one sitting. Cannot wait for the next!

The book has a trigger warning that I normally avoid so it made me cry and not feel good, but apart from that, for me, it is perfect. 
I loved it. I loved the plot, I loved Pip, I loved Ravi, I loved it❤️❤️❤️

I wouldn’t necessarily suggest this book to anyone, I wouldn’t read it again, but I didn’t totally hate it. The whole premise was so unrealistic, and I don’t know a single public high school in America that would have a capstone project to graduate. There were moments where I was like oooh ok I like where this is going but the author would wrap that storyline up in the next chapter and move on from it entirely. Just overall felt forced and unrealistic.
