popcorn gives a good girl’s guide to murder by holly jackson four stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
popcorn specially-ordered the uk edition after hearing the book was rewritten for the us market. popcorn does not understand why they would do this or even how, as this book was extremely british.
the format of this book was interesting, with short chapters broken up by logs documenting the main character’s school project. overall the short chapters made it a quick and easy read.
popcorn recommends this book to fans of penance by eliza clark.

popcorn gives good girl, bad blood by holly jackson three stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️
this book is the second in the good girl’s guide to murder series and follows our main character pip as she investigates her friend’s brother’s disappearance.
this book was very slow in popcorn’s opinion. this makes it more realistic - of course a high schooler trying to solve a mystery would need to take a break to go to school - but it was a slog until the 70% mark. the characters with the exception of ravi weren’t as enjoyable in this book either.
the overall mystery was not as compelling as the first book and there were so many characters to keep track of that even when the bad guys were revealed, popcorn wasn’t as shocked because he simply couldn’t remember who they were.

Very good plot and interesting layout in the book. The in-text images are very engaging. 10/10. Got turned into a netflix show but I have not watched that yet!

popcorn gives gold by raven kennedy three stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️
for a seven hundred page book that is FIFTH in the series this gave a whole lotta nothing for the first 70%. the last 30% was exciting and interesting, but it doesn’t make up for what a slog this book is. popcorn wishes the author had just combined the last two books in the series and significantly edited out the filler.
popcorn is excited to read the final book though! it better be ACTION PACKED based on that cliffhanger!
