Have nice plot twists
Can't put the book down
My thoughts on this book would be that I loved it even more than the first part I think. It got me hooked till the end like any good mystery novel and had a surprising ending. I was although devastated by the end I because I never anticipated a lot of things that happened. I was taken aback. I had several theories but obviously I’m not as good a detective as Pippa Fitz-Amobi.
Moreover, special mention to my favourite underrated book boyfriend Ravi Singh! I loved the banter between Pip and Ravi in this book. I absolutely love that it is not the highlight of the book but you still see how their relationship is growing with everything that’s happening.
I highly recommend this series to everyone! I absolutely loved it.💞

⭐⭐⭐⭐/5
This is a sequel to A good girls guide to Murder. Pip now has a true-crime podcast about the murder case she solved last year and it has gone viral. However, Someone close to Pip goes missing and she's back to her detective mode to find the missing person cause the police isn't doing anything about it.
Our Pip and Ravi is back with much more adventures and many secrets from the town. Pip wanted to find that person before something bad happens and she was not having much time.
The book had many more elements of secrets and unexpected stories than the previous book and will keep you turning your pages hastily to find out what happened. When I reached half the book, I didn't stop reading and kept on turning the pages. The end was something which I never ever expected! It's not something you think it is because it was WOAAHHH!!! I even teared up a bit, which I never thought I would by reading a Mystery genre book.
Overall, this was an amazing sequel to the first book although I loved the First one more.

Why I Love This Book!
“I can’t tell you what decision to make”
At the beginning of the book, we get a very simple recap from Pip of the events that transpired in the last book. It seems like more of a conclusion to the first book than a starting point for the second. AGGGTM is instantly fresh in your mind again and as your reading, you’re not subconsciously trying to remember what has happened, keeping you fully absorbed to the story at hand.
Time to grab the tissues because you are going to cry. Well, at least I did. Towards the beginning of the book unveils a very emotional memorial of Sal Singh and Andie Bell. The overlap of crimes is perfectly shown here. The ending of one is the start of another. Letting the reader know that trouble always finds Pip and this book isn’t any different.
One thing I especially love in this book is the Podcast. The idea of Pip turning her school project into a crime podcast, for everyone to hear the twisted tale of Andie Bell, is an exciting and simple way to make us feel and react as we would to any real crime case. It’s very refreshing to read the interview-style text, alongside crime scene photographs throughout the book. It moves away from the fact that a 17-year-old girl is solving the case, and therefore a bond is created with the reader for us to read on allowing her to solve the case, that she desperately desires to do.
The Crime
”I said I would never do this again, never play the detective, never again lose myself to the world of small-town secrets. It wasn’t me, not any more. I would have stuck to it too; I know I would’ve. But something’s happened and now I have to break that promise. Someone has gone missing. Someone I know.”
It’s with no surprise that in this book there are more complications in Pip’s life, preventing her from finding her best friend’s brother. Jamie Reynolds. As remarkable as Pip is at investigation, the want and need in her voice/actions to stay away from the obsession that consumes her in AGGGTM.
Of course, she couldn’t stay away. None of her school work or numerous sponsorships being offered to her is academically challenging enough to keep her satisfied. There were a few parts in the story that I foresaw, but I was instantly left in bewilderment as Jackson proved me wrong on my many theories. The way she highlights certain characters and evidence to make us question which ones are relevant to the story are done exceptionally well.
As well as the missing case of Jamie Reynolds, we also get to see the trial of Max Hastings play out. Letting us know the events from the prequel are far from over.
The Characters
“Words spliced, growing across the gaps like vines as her eyes unfocused until her handwriting was just one writhing blur. Pip was looking at the page, but she wasn’t really there. It was like that now; giant holes in her attention that she slipped right into.“
Pip is a very strong-willed female character. She is the definition of a great female protagonist. And as much as everyone loves her in the first book, we see her character change due to the fame of her detective work. We start to see her faults, and how she begins to embrace these imperfections.
I would have liked to see more of Ravi. I feel he only begins to open up towards the end of AGGGTM, and now he has been pushed back as a side character. Stopping us from finding out more about him and his relationship with Pip. However, what we do see of Ravi I absolutely adore. He is the main source to deliver the information of the Max Hastings trial, to the podcast and therefore to the reader. Hopefully, we will see a lot more of Ravi in the rest of the series and see how his relationship with Pip evolves.
Connor Reynolds, one of Pip’s best friends, is featured a lot more in GGBB. To some extent, he becomes Pip’s sidekick by helping to solve the case. But quickly loses himself in the emotions of his brother being missing. Connor and his Mum, Johanna, play a big role when it comes to finding Jamie. They both manage to find the will-power to carry on looking for their missing family member, despite all the obstacles in their way.
Overall Thoughts
Overall, I highly recommend this book if you are a fan of the first one. You can clearly see the thought and planning that Jackson goes through when it comes to writing both books in the series. I have to applaud her for throwing the reader off with many suspicious characters and events that happen from start to finish. It’s not an ending you see coming, making it a fantastic read for anyone who loves a bit of mystery to their books.

🗓: 2021 | ✍🏻: Holly Jackson
📚: Mistério | 📑: 416
5⭐️

Após o desenrolar da tentativa de solucionar o caso de Andie Bell meses atrás, Pip se vê postando tudo em um novo podcast, o “A Good Girl’s Guide To Murder”. No final do podcast ela revela que não se envolverá mais nesse tipo de investigação, por mais que as pessoas estejam clamando por mais.
Então está resolvido, não teremos segunda temporada!
Mas quando o irmão mais velho de Pip some e a polícia resolve não fazer nada por ele ser de “risco baixo”, Pip precisa arregaçar as mangas e tentar resolver esse caso em tempo recorde, já que em um caso atual, cada segundo é essencial!
Além de desconcertante e nova essa pressão de resolver um caso real, Pip se vê sem saber onde começar, e com medo da repercussão na vida de seu amigo ao expor os segredos da sua família para toda a internet, na tentativa de trazer Jamie de volta!
Com uma série de reviravoltas, segredos da sua pequena cidade sendo revelados, e um julgamento polêmico, Pip luta contra seu medo de colocar aqueles que ela ama em perigo na busca por fazer a coisa certa!
Descobrimos informações relevantes mais pro final e a história fica ainda mais agitada e interessante. Não é tão difícil solucionar os mistérios dessa sequência se você presta atenção nos livros e nos perfis dos personagens de Fairview. Jackson espera até quase o final, faltando umas 50 páginas, para liberar informações importantes para Pip e os leitores, e faz com que ligar as pistas e desvendar o mistério só aconteça depois de páginas de muita especulação, dúvida e emoção!
O formato deixa o livro ainda melhor e o leitor com a adrenalina lá em cima, além de curioso para ver como as últimas páginas vão se desenrolar, e algumas perguntas permanecendo até o finalzinho!
Final eletrizante, e mesmo quem não adivinhar vai amar! E as explicações que a autora dá são geniais!
Preciso dizer que não sei por que a série não foi trazida para o Brasil e que assim como o primeiro é considerado um dos melhores mistérios YA de todos os tempos, e o segundo, o de um dos melhores livros do ano!
* minhas 5 estrelas são referentes ao livro (o físico dele)e seu conteúdo (a história e desenvolvimento) que são perfeitos, mas infelizmente, a entrega do produto pela Amazon dessa vez deixou a desejar pois me mandaram um item defeituoso com um pequeno rasgo na lombada da sobrecapa.

Despite being disappointed in the first book, and the immature and risky approach taken by our teenage detective, I decided to read the second book since I'd already bought it - I hoped that Pippa would learn from her mistakes and show a bit more maturity, caution and commonsense (as discussed in my review of the first book).
Pippa does indeed show some more maturity and caution in this book, as she is dragged into another case and uses her social media following from the first to get started on a missing persons case that the police won't (yet) look into. However she and her friends still take serious risks and again put lives in danger, and as an ongoing theme fail to provide evidence/information to the police as it comes to hand.
So still not a good role model; rather one with plenty of well-intentioned naivety.
The depiction of the modern teenage world, stalking, bullying, drugs and raves is probably too accurate and accepting for certain groups/schools/behaviours, though the treatment of social media and its risks is presented in a more cautionary way.
As with the first book, the plot holds together pretty well, with some twists - although again there are some implausible elements, and surviving and solving the case was more despite her idiocy than because of her cleverness. Pippa did however learn something between the books and have an initially better, and safer approach to her new case, but this character development was offstage and there was little (or rather very negative) character development in the course of this second volume.
Again, there is no role model here.
While the two books have an underlying message that everyone deserves a second chance, and forgiveness, a willingness to let dangerous criminals get away with it and putting yourself in their power is a message that should be countered rather than exemplified. In addition, promising not to tell (others or the police) about the evidence you've encouraged in order to get someone to talk more... this is both unethical and dangerous, literally asking for trouble - and technically makes you an accessory to what you are offering to cover up.
It is not a series for children, and one that I can't really recommend to adults - young or not.

I really love this series. It’s just so freaking gripping!
This story was a different to the first book, it’s about a missing person Pip is trying to find.
But in the end it was about much more than that. I didn’t have a clue of what is going on until the very end, but I think it was intentionally done like that.
I love playing detective alongside Pip!
This book also includes the trial of Max Hastings from book one. It was horrible to read about it, but also sadly very realistic.
A huge theme in this books is that the justice system doesn’t always work and all of these cases are showing just that.
The ending was hardcore shocking and with every page I just think more and more that Pip seriously needs long term therapy because wtf.
Can’t wait to read the next book!

I still absolutely adore the multi media format, it's just so much and even though I found it a bit more predictable than the first one there were also lots of plot points I didn't saw coming.
But what I'm probably liking most about this book are the characters. We see Pip struggling after what went down in the first book, which is something I don't see too often in thrillers/mysterys. Also her relationship with Ravi is the cutest and also very subtle, which is also something I'm not often seeing in YA.
In conclusion, this was nearly as good as the first book for me and I just can't wait for the series to continue.
