A Good Girl's Guide to Murder

3.5 stars.
Don't get me wrong- it's a fun ride. Well.... fun in the sense of a non-real murder story.

Just a bit (this might be an understandment) unbelievable. I much prefer my young teen detectives to be a little more realistic, like Nancy Drew or Veronica Mars- so my bar is pretty darn high for a type of story like this.

I liked Pip, but I wanted just A LITTLE more about her personality- because what was she like before this case? We get glimpses that are strong, but not enough throughout the story.

The second half of this book is very fast paced and exciting though- the kind where you don't want to put it down.

Not life changing- just entertaining, and sometimes that's the kind of read you need.
