I just finished today's chapters and it seems interesting so far! I like how we there's two different story lines so far. Reading about the past events at this school is pretty cool! I feel like the present day characters will probably try to solve what happened to Ellington's daughter.

[Lia]

Yeah, it's getting super creepy. Especially when Dottie was murdered right off the bat. *shudder* Like dying when you were reading a book.......so sad.😢

[Lia]

And literally when I saw that Stevie was also obsessed with Sherlock and dead bodies, you just popped up in my mind.
Mystery obsessed maniacs stick together.🤣

Who wouldn't want to be able to solve crimes? 😂😂😂

[Lia]

Me xD🙋‍♀️

Just finished today's chapters! It was mostly background info about the characters getting used to their new school. I am curious to know more about David, I wonder why Stevie feels like she seen him before.

Also, it looks like Stevie will try to solve the crime! It's kind of interesting how she wanted to do that for her school project.

[Lia]

Ikr. It's strange and they both don't seem to like each other right now, so where could they have met before?
And I'm super curious on how she's going to solve the Ellingham Case. Wouldn't Truly Devious be dead by now? So how she would be able to expose the culprit?🤔

[May]

It'll definitely be harder since he's most likely dead by now. She'll just have to figure it out with whatever evidence she can find! And hopefully she'll be able to clear the name of the guy who was accused of committing the crime.

[Lia]

Unless.........Truly Devious has solved the mystery to immortality.😨

[Lia]

Just finished the latest chapters and.......wow.
I didn't like Hayes, but his death is pretty sad. I didn't think he would die.

I had a feeling someone was going to die, but not him specifically. I guess this shows that someone is following Truly Devious' footsteps. Now Stevie has more than one mystery to uncover!

[May]

I couldn't help but read ahead and now I finished the book! I wasn't expecting that reveal of the culprit.

Overall I really enjoyed this book! (view spoiler)[ I just wish Stevie solved the original mystery, not just who killed Hayes... The author probably wanted to solve the mystery in a later book. Also, that ending wasn't what I expected! I didn't expect David's true identity to be the son of the politician she despises. I wonder whats going to happen in the next book. (hide spoiler)]

[Lia]

Yeah I finished yesterday too and wow.........that ending😨
