A Girl Like Us by Anna Sophia McLoughlin
3.5
"Protocol 202, Maya - it means there's been a murder."
Former reality star Maya Miller has just married into the extremely wealthy Sterling family. Her and her new husband Colin are on their way back from their honeymoon when they learn the Sterling heiress was just murdered. They immediately divert their course to London to meet up at the family estate where they'll be under constant watch until the murderer is apprehended.
A GIRL LIKE US is a debut mystery from Anna Sophia McLoughlin and oozes wealth and chaos.
This book is very much a slow (sometimes trudging) burn. As a reader, we get to learn the pasts and secrets of Maya and the Sterling family as they're all brought together under tense circumstances.
The ending goes crazy and redeemed the overall story for me a bit.
However, I think for the most part, this story was missing a lot of answers and raised even more questions that came from a rushed conclusion.
A fine debut, but one that I think will only really work for certain readers!
