♡ Missing Person

♡ True-Crime Podcast

♡ Amateur Detective Work

Again, much like the last book I loved the extra details in the formatting.  The little details like that are really lovely.

This book started out a bit cliché, I mean asking a teenager to help find your missing (possibly dead) brother seems totally full proof.  However, I did get invested after a while and the plot really went in a different direction than I was expecting.  The “who did it” was a bit random but it was entertaining to read about the journey.  

Pip having a true-crime podcast totally fits her vibe.  If she doesn’t become a detective after this I’m going to scream because she’s doing the whole police departments job at this point.

Spice Level: n/a

POV: First Person

Release Date: 02, March 2021

Rep: BIPOC (Main and Side Characters), LGBTQIA+ (Side Character)

The book had a slow-burning start, but after the plot twist, the ending paced up and was emotional af.

Amazing book! Adventurous but you have to read the first book to understand a few things. Suspenseful and had me reading till 12:30 last night! Amazing plot and amazing characters.

2nd book in the good girls guide to murder series! A great page-turner with suspense and mystery. I'm constantly trying to figure out the case with Pip which is great fun. This one was quite sad in the end though :'(
