Plot was very interesting, and again Jackson is brilliant at weaving the tinniest of details into it that create the biggest of consequences.

Didn’t like how Pip’s anger started to take over and how at the end she became very detached. Get that after what happened, but no mention of her going to therapy, which I think would have been helpful. Will see how it all pans out in the next books.

I like this as a sequel to a good girls guide to murder, but I do prefer the first book to this one. The first half of this book was excellent, but I found the second half of the book really sad.

Watching pips character start to turn into someone who is paranoid due to what she has experienced is really hard to see. I also found the Max Hasting's trial so disappointing, even if I saw it coming.

. If you like the first one, then you'll like this one, but I found the plot to this one (and the ending) darker and sadder.
