Ace of Spades by Faridah Àbíké-Íyímídé
4.0
This book was so fun whilst having a lot of important substance to it! A self-proclaimed Get Out and Gossip Girl mash-up, this YA mystery tells the story of the only two black students at an elite private school who are being targeted by an anonymous mass texter.
If you’re a fan of Pretty Little Liars-esque stories then this is one for you. I loved the vibe of this book and when the reveal comes you will be gobsmacked – not because you’re not expecting it but more so because of the horror of it.
I love how this book handles its social commentary and it has amazing BME and LGBT representation.
The only thing I didn’t like about this book is how some parts were over-dramatised/cheesy which YA tends to be so I don’t hate it for that. Other than that I thought this was fabulous!
