Everytime I read a book in this series, I cry. I cry because I am so amazed at how Holly Jackson's mind can be this phenomenal. I cry because I see fragments of myself in Pip. I cry because Ravi is perfect.

Stanley Forbes, they could never make me hate you.

I like this as a sequel to a good girls guide to murder, but I do prefer the first book to this one. The first half of this book was excellent, but I found the second half of the book really sad.

Watching pips character start to turn into someone who is paranoid due to what she has experienced is really hard to see. I also found the Max Hasting's trial so disappointing, even if I saw it coming.

. If you like the first one, then you'll like this one, but I found the plot to this one (and the ending) darker and sadder.
