Book Review: One of Us Is Lying by Karen M. Mc Manus


 

About

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?


My Thoughts

This book has been on my TBR since it came out. I did not want to look at the TV series before I had an opportunity to read the novel. I am glad I read the book first though because I thoroughly enjoyed it. 

In One of Us Is Lying we meet Bronwyn, Addy, Cooper and Nate who together with the controversial blogger Simon at detention. This day would lead to a tragedy that will change the lives of four of these teenagers forever.

I loved the mystery, drama and the writing style in this book and I look forward to reading the others.
