One of Us Is Next by Karen M. McManus
4.0

Truth or Dare? A new game has started at Bayview High and the stakes are up again for three students. The story takes place after the events of the Bayview Four ( and yes we do get glimpses of our four favorite troublemakers in this book). This one follows Maeve (Bronwyn’s younger sister who is recovering from her Leukemia and just wants to figure out what to do now since she wasn’t expecting to even make it out of high school alive), Phoebe a girl who likes to casually date and just relax but when one of her dark secrets is released her life is upended, and Knox (Maeve’s ex turned best friend who is the perpetual nice guy) who just wants to be defined as something more than just the “nice guy”. When a new game begins asking students at Bayview to play truth or dare things start to get out of hand when it starts to target Phoebe, Maeve, and Knox... and when a dead body shows up they’ll have to come together and figure out who is behind this new game before it’s too late. This one lacked the stacks and friendship of the first book but it was still a fun read! I did love getting to know more about Maeve and getting to see where the Addie, Cooper, Nate and Bronwyn have gone since graduating high school. It was a nice continuation of the story and I definitely can’t wait for the third book!
