A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder by Holly Jackson
What it’s about: Sal Singh murdered Andie Bell five years ago. Everyone knows he did it, everyone but Pippa Fitz-Amobi, who takes on the case as the topic for her final capstone project. She starts finding connections and secrets everywhere that someone in town is desperate for her to unsee. If the killer is still on the loose, is it safe for Pippa to keep investigating, especially when she might be on to them?

My thoughts: I’ve been craving a good thrilling mystery novel and I’ve seen this one around a lot, and it did not disappoint! It was very complex and twisty. I was amazed how everyone seemed to be connected and tied together in that town. It was so captivating to see Pippa’s thought process unfold in her project logs. The audiobook experience made it even more incredible, with the interviews and voice actors. It truly seemed realistic that someone like her could follow the trail of evidence and secrets.
I loved how every character impacted the story. I really enjoyed the dynamic of Pip’s friends and family. I especially appreciated her relationship with Ravi, it was so authentic and never seemed forced or too much to outshine the actual story.
This is a story about every type of person. “I’ve found that it is not one that can be so easily divided into the good and the bad. In the end this was a story about people and their different shades of desperation, crashing up against each other.” Once I started this book, there was no stopping until I found out the truth. It was addicting and surprising, which is everything I want from a mystery like this. I can’t wait to read the sequel!
