I got started on #ComicsBingo right away, because why not. The art grew on me; the story felt a little bit rushed, but I had fun anyway with Lupe -- and all her facial expressions. So teenage. 🤣
The ending was maybe a bit trite.
It's a light pick, like 3/5 stars (“liked it“) on my usual rating scale, but I had fun.

I really enjoyed Ashley Elston's adult thriller Frist Lie Wins, so I decided to pick up one of her other books. However, this one didn't work for me. I found it really predictable and kind of boring.
However, I think young readers would really enjoy it.

“And that,” Mr. Beckett says, leaning against the edge of his desk in third-period AP English, ankles crossed and dark eyes shining, “is the story of how Hemingway and Fitzgerald became the most famous literary frenemies of the twentieth century. Full disclosure, it probably won‘t be that useful to you on the AP exam, since for some reason they don‘t test your knowledge of hundred-year-old publishing gossip.

This was a fun, quick read. I kind of had the murderer figured out, but I still enjoyed the ride. The end was WAY too abrupt though. It was like ‘build up, build up, BUILD UP CLIMAX over. Aso here‘s the murderer.‘ Kind of anti-climatic.

Horrible subject matter! It‘s the aftermath of survivors of school shooting. But a brilliant perspective and written an interesting mix letters and essays from varying perspectives of the same event.
