One of Us Is Lying by Karen M. McManus

adventurous challenging emotional mysterious tense fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.5

This was an amazing book, some of the heavier topics in the book were brought in very nicely. I give this a 4.5 only because I kinda guessed who the killer was but I wasn't really serious about it bc the book did a great job of making you unsure!
