The narrator for Pip got annoying. I think it was a combination of her character and the way the narrator tried to portray her that got me irritated. The story in this book was alright, but didn't appeal to me as much as the first book. There were definitely more twists and turns that made it exciting.

I do not like Ant and Lauren.

I loved the first book already, but this was somehow even better? I liked the inner monologue Pip had, and how you could see the change in her as the book went on.

I think this book was another interesting read. In my opinion, it wasn't as good as its predecessor, A Good Girl's Guide to Murder, but it's definitely worth the read.
My only recommendation is to read the novella, Kill Joy, because you get to know Jaime in there and you don't get to see his character much or it all in the first book.
