The wicked girls by Alex Marwood
In this book we mainly follow 2 women, Kirstyand Amber.
Where Amber lives there have been horrible murdered which drawn the attention of Kirsty and she is a new reported. Amber works as a cleaner at a fun fair and the murders become all to real to her and she finds the body of a young woman in the mirror maze. Kirsty gets wind of this and heads down to there to scoop a story as she really needs the publicity and the money.
Whilst she is there she accidently bumps into Amber and they are both horrified and scared because of what happened when they were kids, the horror they did, the blood on their hands. They were never ever ment to meet again or even come near each other, bit here they are.
I loved how the book showed what happened in the past and whats happening in the present. But I did enjoy the way that they show the past as its all jumbled up. From the disaster happening to then how they met, to then after the disaster then back to week before. It was so hard to follow as it wasn't a straight line which I think would of done this hook more justice.
I also did like how many things were happening at once, from the murders and murder, to the psycho stalker, to then what happened in the past, there were just too many elements to keep track of.
Thats why this book is getting a 3 stars , I did enjoy it but there was just too much confusion and too many things happening.
