Here Lies a Vengeful Bitch by Codie Crowley

adventurous dark funny mysterious fast-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Loveable characters? Yes

5.0

So perfect for this time of year and so cosy (considering the plot). I would definitely have spent more time with the characters. I liked Annie Lane and if she’s a b!tch it’s because she had to be, everyone (alive) around her was awful to her.

I thought I had it all figured out but the twist really got me. It’s giving grown up Goosebumps with a dash of Beetlejuice and I love the vibe. I’d love it if it could be a series somehow, with Annie and the gang solving crimes on Halloween.

It’s a fangtastic debut from Codie Crowley and if you don’t follow her on TikTok you should. Can’t wait to see what’s next from Codie. 

Get this on the spooky season TBR straight away. I’ll definitely be re-reading soon.
