This was the sequel to One Of Us Is Lying and I think it was better than the first! Not so great that it hit 3/5 stars lol but it didn’t drag as much and the characters had a bit more development which I appreciated. It was confusing at times because of the character jumping each chapter, but it had me much more engaged than the first book, and the plot twists were much better! I also appreciated the character threads from the last book being woven into this book.

Moderate: Child death

the mystery person(s) threatening kids with their secrets or doing dangerous dares was a good plot twist and I think I would’ve liked to see more of that. But finding out that it was the little brother who realized he gotten himself in too deep, pretending to be his sister online?!?! Great plot twist at the end!! spoiler>
