I've been putting off this review for weeks because I just don't know where to start. I have so many friends who raved about this book to me, so I was so disappointed by it.

An assortment of gossip apps have popped up since, trying to take Simon's place, but no one has the goods; until now. At Bayview High, five students–Simon, Addy, Cooper, Bronwyn, and Nate–are given detention. Simon, known for starting an online gossip group with his friend Janae to snitch on his classmates, suffers a sudden and fatal allergic reaction. Each of the four students had a motive to kill Simon, and after it is determined his death was not an accident, an investigation is started.

Let’s start with the pluses though, shall we? Starting more or less where One of Us Is Next left off, the character development was truly divine. After all, we got to watch these teens grow up, learning unbearably hard lessons along the way. Through a handful of POVs, the gaps from the first two books were filled in and one altogether deep, dark secret was laid bare. But it was those characters that truly had me from hello. Complex and mostly true-to-life, I connected with one and all.

One of the main characters has a golden retriever (named after the author's childhood dog). This is something I like very much! 🐕🐕🐕 Tightly plotted and brilliantly written, with sharp, believable characters, this whodunit is utterly irresistible' - HEAT Anderson, John (October 5, 2021).

I love a murder mystery anyway, but this one was made better as I cared about the 4 kids who were suspects. Goldberg, Lesley (August 15, 2019).

The main romance is fairly cute. Incredibly trope-y "goody-two-shoes smart girl falls for the brooding bad boy!" stuff, but, I mean, their interactions are fine, and I was rooting for them by the end of the book, which is a big plus. I would say I was more attached to the budding relationship between them than I was to any of the individual characters in this story.
