Okay, I much preferred this book to the first one.

The thrilling second installment deeper delves into the lives of a group of friends who are not only mad but also afraid. With Margot in a coma and Bree stuck in juvie, Olivia and Kitty take it upon themselves to unmask their dangerous tormentor. However, their theories are turned upside down when a shocking secret is revealed by Ed the Head, leaving the girls questioning everyone's motives.

The suspense and mystery in "Get Dirty" keep us on the edge of our seats. The author skillfully weaves a complex plot that keeps us guessing until the very end. The characters face personal struggles and setbacks, adding depth to the story and making it a little more relatable to readers. The author also tackles themes such as friendship, love, hidden identity, and social justice, creating a multifaceted narrative.

Each character brings their own unique voice and experiences, allowing readers to understand their motivations and fears.

The writing style is engaging and fast-paced, making it difficult to put the book down. The dialogue is sharp and witty, adding humor and authenticity to the interactions between the characters. The author skillfully balances the suspenseful moments with emotional depth, creating a well-rounded reading experience.

Overall, it is a thrilling and captivating.
