THIS BOOK IS CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED. Julie Chan is Dead was such a fast-paced and hilariously dark read. The story gets more twisted as it goes on and is the perfect balance of satire and thriller. I loved the pop culture references  as someone who is chronically online I just really felt seen while reading this. 

It reminded me of First Lie Wins,  Yellowface, and Saltburn.
