Book 57📚 4.5⭐️

Really enjoyed this one! I‘m a little sad it wasn‘t longer - but it had a great pace!

Every year, the high school kids of Lincoln play a game…Assassins. Lia has been gathering information all year to win. But this year, the game gets taken a bit more literal. Is someone killing players in alphabetical order? And why?🤫

This book is an okay read for me. It‘s exciting because of how they play the Assassins. But, most parts are predictable. There‘s a love interest to make it compelling but again, it‘s kinda predictable. And the ending is regrettable because it just ends like that. It sounds cliff-hanging, but it is not. The plot is good, if the author could make it more exciting and darker, maybe I‘ll give it more stars.

It‘s fine, it passes the time but it‘s very clear who the killer is from the moment they‘re introduced

Murderous senior year games. Yes please!

Pan?? This book was incredibly slow considering it was only 225 pages, there is a lot of unanswered questions, and the trope of ABC killer, comes up maybe for one page. The book had so much potential, but unfortunately didn't meet expectations. The killer was more than obvious, absolutely not shocking, at all, the "shocking" parts were very dull. 1/5 stars for me, unfortunately.

“If you loved American Horror Story 1984, you'll die for this paperback original thriller mashup of Agatha Christie's The A.B.C. Murders and Riverdale...”
So yeah I feel like it had a lot of promise-all the seniors play a game called Assassins and need to kill each other (with water guns) and leave one standing. However, there is a real killer playing their own game. It didn‘t feel authentic.
Thanks to Netgalley and Underlined for the arc.
