I absolutely loved the book!!!


“The Murder Game” has a great combination of suspense, plot, and mystery. I’d recommend the book to anyone looking for an amazing book filled with suspense, love triangles, friendship, loyalty, and unsolved crime.

Here's to hoping the publisher will pick up the remaining books in the series as Carrie Doyle said they haven't yet. I can't wait to discover the rest of Pippa’s story

I will start with the fact that I didn’t realize it was a YA novel when I picked it from my bookshelf. I must have purchased it several years ago when I read YA and never got to it. If someone loves YA, I’m sure they would give this a higher rating. I went ahead and tried it out and did get into it and wanted to know whodunnit.

It was a fun little read. I could see it being a teen tv show, much like Pretty Little Liars. 

Content warnings: the whole story is wrapped around infidelity but no details or sexual content. There is cursing but not excessive and no F bombs. Not too gory or violent.

Nothing incredibly life-changing but I loved the friendships, the mystery and the boarding school setting. Very enjoyable ❤️

Good story line with just enough characters to keep you guessing.
