That’s what happened to me. I started reading a good girls guide to murder and then I was like wait why do I feel like I know what’s going to happen.
Then, I realized I’ve read the book already but it was before I started keeping track of my ratings.
I’m watched a YouTube video that breaks down the book because I don’t exactly remember the details but I remember thinking it was an interesting style of writing and the plot twist of the actual killer did kind of get me. I can’t rate this book that highly because I did forget I read it.
I do have the second book, which I’m sure I haven’t read yet and the positive reviews of this series also make me want to continue.

I knew that Mr.Ward was the secret boyfriend and that Becca was involved in the murder. However, I thought the reporter and drug dealer were involved on it too. I can’t believe Becca killed her dog/she tried to kill Pippa. That’s fucked.Graphic: Grief and Murder

lowkey wished we got to see the murder boardSpoiler
I'm so glad Max got what he deserved in the end. But as for Naomi, I'm still a bit salty that she wasn't charged, but Cara is innocent, and ripping her last known family member away would be awful so I'm going to let it slide. Especially considering I know Naomi probably feels guilty enough, indirectly causing her best friend's death and all.Graphic: Animal death, Murder, and Death
