I have previously enjoyed both of Ravena Guron’s YA thrillers so I was very much looking forward to reading Mondays are Murder: I was not disappointed! Fast paced, fuelled with emotion and exploring the intricacies of friendship and family, this thriller had me hooked. 

When Kay receives a note detailing a week of (what can only be described as) hell, leading to her own murder the coming Monday, we find ourselves in a race against time to discover the identity of ‘Monday’. Visiting her hometown brings a lot of emotion to the surface, and whilst I initially didn’t warm to Kay, it didn’t take long before I was fully invested and trying to solve the mystery for myself. 

A whole host of characters, complicated relationships and an edge of your seat mystery, which genuinely had me feeling on edge at times, this is another brilliant addition to any YA thriller fan’s bookshelf. 

Thank you to Usborne, Ravena Guron and NetGalley for my early review copy in exchange of a fair and honest review.
