As Good As Dead by Holly Jackson
3.0
dark mysterious tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

The first half of this book feels like the first two, uncovering a new case trying to solve it. I would say I enjoyed it up to the halfway point until things get a little out of hand. Granted, the twists you've come to expect from Jackson are still there, even if I guessed a few of them. I'm just not a fan of how it ended! I understand some of the motivations, I'm just not sure it was executed in the best way.
