For YA. Good idea.. very YA writing, a little far fetched ( )

What a fun book! This one kept me guessing and the writing prose really worked for me. It read like a movie but somehow better? Pip the main character is relatable and fun, crime obsessed and reminded me of my favorite podcast crime junkie! Recommend if you like books like the naturals. ( )

I listened to the audiobook, it was really well produced! Great twists, and it felt believable. I’m excited for the show coming! ( )

{My thoughts} – I had seen this book circulating throughout the young adult book fandom and it had peaked my interest. I am always down for a murder mystery type book. I wasn’t expecting what I’d come to find between the pages of this particular book though. This book after the first 10 pages had sucked me so far down the rabbit hole that I’d found it utterly difficult to set down and concentrate on other things.

Pippa is senior at her High School and they have to do these capstone projects. She decided to do hers on a very touchy topic within her community. Hers was about the murder of a girl a few years ahead of her and the attempt to prove that the individual assumed to have killed her, she wanted to prove they were innocent. This by far is no easy feat for even the best of the detectives. At the time everything had taken place though the police had been certain that they’d had an open and shut case and that there were no loose ends.

When Pippa starts diving head first into her project and asking many question she stirs up a lot of raw wounds. She stirs up a lot of mixed emotions. Although many are okay with her doing her project, many others are not and she has to figure out who is friend and who is foe.

This is one of the best laid out young adult mystery books I have read in awhile. I really enjoyed the roller coaster ride that it had taken me on and upon looking this book up. I have learned there is another to be released in May of this year. I think that’s what I read. I can’t wait – It is already added to my Amazon wish list!

If you enjoy murder mystery books, then I am sure that you will without a doubt enjoy this book as much as I did. It was such a brilliantly written book! ( )

Loved this, but also justice for that one paraplegic guy! ( )
