A Good Girl''s Guide to Murder by Holly Jackson. Published: 2019. Pages: 400. (No spoilers)
This book was extremely captivating and I could not put the book down, it was a definite page turner. It did not drag the plot, every page was engrossing. A fast paced book. This book has many sensitive topics, many trigger warnings.
Pip decides to reinvestigate a murder that has happened 5 years ago, for her senior Capstone Project.

Even after 5 years, Pip still has the feeling that there was more to the story, she doesn't think Sal murdered Andie. She reexamined the closed case and found many dark secrets, who Andie really was. Practically, the whole town knows she is doing this project. Someone in the town doesn't want Pip digging for answers, she received many threats.

This book switches narratives from first person to third person to recordings of interviews to text messages to emails. This kept the book very engaging. I couldn’t get enough of this thrilling mystery novel! I loved the two main characters, Pippy and Ravi, they had very few flirty and romantic moments. There were many twists, I was completely hooked onto this story! This young adult mystery book was terrific and I loved it! I will definitely be checking out the sequel: Good Girl, Bad Blood!
