McMANUS “Pretty Little Liars meets The Breakfast Club” (Entertainment Weekly) in this “flat-out addictive” (RT Book Reviews) story of what happens when five strangers walk into detention and only four walk out alive.   Pay close attention and you might solve this. On Monday afternoon, five students at Bayview High walk into detention.     Bronwyn, the brain, is Yale-bound and never breaks a rule.     Addy, the beauty, is the picture-perfect homecoming princess.     Nate, the criminal, is already on probation for dealing.     Cooper, the athlete, is the all-star baseball pitcher.     And Simon, the outcast, is the creator of Bayview High’s notorious gossip app.   Only, Simon never makes it out of that classroom. Before the end of detention Simon's dead. And according to investigators, his death wasn’t an accident. On Monday, he died. But on Tuesday, he’d planned to post juicy reveals about all four of his high-profile classmates, which makes all four of them suspects in his murder. Or are they the perfect patsies for a killer who’s still on the loose? Everyone has secrets, right? What really matters is how far you would go to protect them.

    Absolut zurecht super gehyped

    Dieses Buch ist die perfekte Mischung aus Gossip Girl und A good Girls Guide to murder! Ich bin zwar absolut Late zu the Party, aber trotzdem sehr begeistert von dem Buch! Endlich mal wieder ein gehyptes Booktok Buch, das den Hype auch wirklich verdient hat. Es ist absolut spannend von der ersten Seite an, etwas undurchschaubar und hat Plottwists , mit denen man nicht rechnet Nach dem ich CCC III angefangen habe - und nun auf Seite 1.306 von 19.40 - mal wieder in der Leseflaute stecke was Fantasy angeht, hat mich das Buch einfach abgeholt
