Looking for A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder?

Hope you had a chance to pick up A Fateful Plateful this weekend for just $0.99. Some of the other freebies and $0.99 deals included in my blog post might still be available if you are looking for some books to add to your TBR pile.

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme. Read the rules and more teasers at The Purple Booker. Anyone can play along.

I’m not sure of the title of this book, since it really doesn’t describe what the book is about or the tone of the piece. A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder by Holly Jackson features a young woman investigating the murder of another girl in her town five years earlier, becoming friends with the brother of the boy accused of murdering her and digging down deep to find the truth behind what really happened to Andie Bell.

It is billed as a YA Thriller and is apparently big on TikTok and Netflix and has won several children’s fiction awards. So far I am enjoying the gradual unravelling of what Andie Bell was really like and who may have had a motive to murder her. If she was murdered. Though she has been legally declared dead, no body has ever been found.

I don’t know for sure what the correct police procedure would have been but I’m guessing that at that point, Sal became the number-one suspect.

A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder, Holly Jackson

The case is closed. Five years ago, schoolgirl Andie Bell was murdered by Sal Singh. The police know he did it. Everyone in town knows he did it.

But having grown up in the same small town that was consumed by the crime, Pippa Fitz-Amobi isn’t so sure. When she chooses the case as the topic for her final project, she starts to uncover secrets that someone in town desperately wants to stay hidden. And if the real killer is still out there, how far will they go to keep Pip from the truth … ?
