(4.5 stars) The way that these books went from "fun murder mystery school project" to "being hunted by a serial killer" is honestly impressive. Also when she escaped and we still had half the book left I knew we were in for a ride. Honestly the real MVPs are her friends for being so fucking loyal bc what?! ( )

This is the third and final book in the girls guide to murder. I loved book one, two was entertaining, but I’m really annoyed with Book 3. They give Pip drug problem. Barely a drug problem. She just really needs to sleep, and she needs the chemical enhancement to do it. She’s not doing well after the events of book 2. She needs one more, one more true crime to solve and get it out of her system. She set out to solve one murder, but ends up falling down the rabbit hole of a different event. Throughout the course of all this, it feels like the drug issue dissipates. I hate that it’s there. It does have a bigger plot point, but it’s not needed. They could’ve made the same plot in a different manner. I think the ending is more true life to what might actually happen in similar circumstances, but I really didn’t like it. My dislike of book 3 in the series will not keep me from reading anything else by this author. I have already bought them and plan to read them. But part of me wishes I could go back in time and not read book 3. ( )

Overall, I love this series: felt like I was solving the cases alongside Pip and loved making connections between the 3 books and the plot twists were divine.
I originally began reading to see the hype for Ravi and justify the claims that he is a better book bf than Warner. He did not disappoint and was supportive of Pip no matter what (which I love).

However.
The reason I have rated it only 4 stars is because it didn't feel like Pip. Yeah she has PTSD after book 2, but it was too exaggerated. I'm pretty sure I must have skipped some page long paragraphs because of the over detail it contained.

Would definitely recommend. A good wrap up of Pip's story

P.S. " Hey Sarge, remember me" - book bf material ( )

Trodde den skulle ligne mer på bok 1 og 2, men den tok en mørk vending som var super spennende å lese ( )
