I was also completely on edge reading the scenes where he was near, such as the later stick figure scenes, Pip’s speakers sounding in the middle of the night and the printer going off as well. All of the links tying him to the other novels proved just how much thought had gone into everything and I was very impressed. Although I easily guessed who the DT Killer was (something I have never once done before with one of Jackson’s book), I was completely engrossed. I wasn’t immensely intrigued to begin with, the writing a little repetitive and out of character, but I found it fine as I understand what Pip had been through after Stanley’s death and that she was obviously really struggling with PTSD, though her coping mechanisms were not AT ALL what I expected of her.

If you love the characters, the ‘whodunnit’ style and overall the first two AGGGTM novels, I must ask that you NEVER DARE pick up or even go remotely near a copy of this book. I’m not sure I have ever hated a book as much. If I had known what I was getting hyped for, I wouldn’t have wasted my time. I have had it preordered for two months, had the release date written in all of my calendars and diaries and counted down the days with friends and family. I related to Pip so much as a character, and found the plot line and writing style absolutely phenomenal.īecause of this, it is pretty understandable that I was SUPER hyped for this release. Jackson’s writing was so well thought out, so thoroughly planned, it was beyond impressive. I am never done recommending it to people and talking praise about it. My hands are shaking in anger right now as I am writing this.Īs most people will know, A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder has been my favourite book of all time ever since its release. I have never been more furious at a book.
