It's the first book in the trilogy and I really liked it. Even though I found out the killer before hand, still the book was great. I would highly recommend!

4.75 rating. But it can definitely be round up.
I started this book right around midnight, and I am finishing at 6 in the morning. I could not stop reading this book. The mystery was so well written. It had so many twists to the story. I annotate my mystery books, and I write in the books my thoughts and theories throughout reading the book. I did start to piece things together of what happened. However, there were enough breadcrumbs and shroud of doubt that I was still surprised with the ending. 

I really like that while reading this, I would have a conclusion about a piece of evidence, and Pip would be drawing those same conclusions on the next page. The main character she didn't feel like a moron. It really felt like both the MC and I were putting together the puzzle and figuring it out together. There was no missing very obvious piece of evidence. It was really well written for a mystery novel. 

The ending of the book was really sad. It wasn't so clear-cut about who the bad guys were and their villainous reasons. The crime wasn't sensationalized. It felt like something that could absolutely happen in any town. 

I really appreciated a mystery book that was about the mystery. There were cute family moments, cute friend moments, and cute romancey moments, but that didn't overpower the fact that this book was about a mystery and stayed true to that. It always sucks reading a mystery book where the middle 150 pages are about the main character missing her boyfriend or something when you just want to be focused on the mystery.
