Unexpectedly fun and entertaining, this prequel to "A Good Girl's Guide to Murder" introduces readers to a murder mystery role-play game that takes place before the events of the first book. The story exudes vibes reminiscent of "Knives Out," but in a way that enhances the overall experience. It offers a fresh and engaging perspective, enriching the larger narrative of the series. With its captivating storyline, intriguing characters, and cleverly constructed mystery, it keeps readers hooked from start to finish. Whether you're a fan of the series or simply looking for an entertaining read, "Kill Joy" delivers on its promise and leaves a lasting impression.
