Thank you to NetGalley, Liann Zhang, and Atria Books for allowing me to read this book in exchange for an honest review (Unpaid).

Julie Chan is Dead is a intoxicating tale of mental illness, the costs of fame, and mystery. I was immediately sucked in by Zhang's writing, almost as if I was becoming a Belladonna myself. And the ending! Oh my god, the ending. It was perfect.
