A Good Girl's Guide to Murder by Holly Jackson
5.0
*4.5 stars.
This was a very enjoyable YA mystery, where when you think you’ve guessed it, think again!
Pip was a very entertaining character. She’s quick on her feet, creative, brave, spunky, and the perfect person for the job!
I love the blended family aspect, the queer best friend, Ravi... There’s plenty of representation.
The only downside, for me, was I did feel that Pip and a few other characters were written very young. Ravi was 20 and Pip and Cara were 17, but I couldn’t stop picturing them as 14/15 year olds at times.
