Two Sides to Every Murder is a book that follows Olivia and Reagan - two girls who are returning to Camp Lost Lake seventeen years after tragedy struck & changed the lives of everyone. One is trying to find out who her biological dad is and the other is trying to prove her mom’s innocence in the 2008 murders…but who really committed the murders & what will they do to keep it a mystery??
.
Wow! This book was a wild ride! I read it in one day while at the lake & it was the perfect setting to take this story in. It combined all things that I love in a good story - thriller, murder, lies, sleep away camp, ghost stories. This was a great summer read & one that I highly recommend!

How to Solve Your Own Murder is a book that follows Annie Adams, who just inherited her Great Aunt Agnes’s sprawling country estate in Castle Knoll on the premise that she solve her Aunt Agnes’ murder.
The book was very cleverly written and alternates between present day and teenage Agnes in 1965. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this one and finished it in one day. The characters were very enjoyable, the storyline was intriguing, and it kept me guessing throughout the entire story. It had elements of a thriller, cozy mystery, and friendship all rolled into one and it left me excited for book 2. I can’t wait to see what Annie and Castle Knoll gets up to next!!
