“I'll probably regret this, but”—he paused, flashing her a small smile—”we're partners in crime, after all.”
I don't know if this really counts as a review or not because I don't have much to say except that now I completely understand the hype, I need the second book immediately, and Pip & Ravi forever
I am absolutely speechless. I have no words to describe how much I LOVED this book. The tension between Daisy and Billy was done so well and I loved every moment with them, especially towards the middle/end. Some other things I loved are: the song lyrics, Camila being Billy's rock, the moments that matched/lined up with the show, Karen being a complete badass, Simone and Daisy's friendship, finding out who the “author” was, & almost all the moments with the whole band being together...they were so wholesome sometimes.
Quotes I loved the most will be below:
“We are all mad here, don't you know?”
This book blew me away. It was the perfect Queen of Hearts retelling/sequel, that ended up making me cry, which very rarely happens when reading. I loved Cath, Jest, Hatta, and Raven with all of my heart and loved how their story unfolded right in front of me while still paying homage to the original Alice in Wonderland. Just know that because of this book, I will always support women's rights and women's wrongs...iykyk
I related to this memoir more than I thought I would. It made me realize many things and I am so glad I read this. I don't have much to say on it but I did enjoy this book a lot, and really recommend it for anyone who is struggling
GR rating- 3/5⭐
Actual rating- 3.75/5⭐
After reading the first book and being left completely shocked at the ending, I wanted to read this one to see what happens to Koffi and Ekon next. This book was more character driven than plot which caused the pacing to feel very slow to me most of the time and more of a filler book than anything. I did like that we were introduced to many new characters along the way. Almost every review I've read has said that the last 100 pages really pick up in pace, and let me tell you, they certainly did. I did enjoy the last 100 pages more than the story itself as a whole; and I can't wait to see where the author takes the story next!
I have read a lot of books within the past 2 years, but none of them have made me as speechless as How To Survive Your Murder. This book has everything you would want in a horror book: exciting characters, the epitome of right and wrong (more wrong than right in this case), an enticing plot, most definitely multiple plot twists, and maybe even a Sydney Prescott look-alike. I became hooked on this book within the first 4 pages and I don't think I ever put it down from there.
How To Survive Your Murder is built on the ground that is mid to late 90's horror movies. Most references throughout the book play a significant part in moving the story along.........like being a Final Girl.
Overall this book left me speechless and I absolutely loved every moment of it. I really recommend this for anyone who loves 90's horror movies, some very crazy plot twists, and if you just want a read that will make you go “I really think this person is the killer” or “NO WHY DID YOU GO IN THERE!” Then this book is for you. You'll be dying to read it.
Common sense: it's like the main rule of being a Final Girl........
P.S. being a Final Girl isn't easy
I have absolutely no words. That being said, this book was amazing. I loved the characters, the writing, the plot, everything. I don't have much to say especially because I don't know what to say, but if you haven't read Animal Farm, I recommend you go and read it, you won't regret it.
I have no words. From the moment I started this book, I fell in love with Lucy Clark and Edith Fox. I was captivated by the mystery surrounding Edith and related to Lucy in more ways than I thought. I loved this book and the characters so much. I hope that others decide to read this book because it was such an interesting and wonderfully beautiful read.
I love love loved this book so much! The relationship between Clara and Sang was adorable, and I honestly didn't want this book to end!
