## Description

One of Us Is Lying: TikTok made me buy it: 1 : McManus, Karen M.: desertcart.co.uk: Books

Review: Phenomenal execution - Set in high school with a heavily clichéd outline of a plot and much of the answer can be guessed early on. But... I loved the characters and cared about the outcome, and Karen has something to say about life on the Internet too. Also the character arc where she comes out of a toxic relationship is a lovely, refreshing read. I loved it, I think it lives up to the hype.
Review: Murder on the Breakfast Club Express - Contemporary YA is not usual my cup of tea - give me fantasy or sci-fi or paranormal any day. But the premise of this intrigued me enough to give it a go, and I wasn't disappointed. Five students are given detention, having possibly been set up by having banned mobile phones places in their bags. One maintains a popular website spreading accurate but vicious gossip about his fellow students. The other four all have something to hide, and are about to be featured on his blog. The first student is poisoned and dies, leading police to assume one of the remaining four must have killed him - after all, they had access and the had a motive. The overall vibe is thus somewhere between an 80s highschool movie and an Agatha Christie movie - think Murder on the Breakfast Club Express. Though the mystery is interesting - and the conclusion interesting, if a little predictable - it's the characters that really drive the story. All four of them are self-referentially introduced as high school stereotypes: a geek, a jock, a bad boy and a popular girl. But as the book progresses, the nuances beneath those labels become clear. It's hard not to like and root for all four of them, and their interactions with and growing friendship with each other is great. The writing is really good and on the whole, the voices are well-differentiated. The book runs through quite a lot of issues such as bullying, coming out, drugs etc, but doesn't feel preachy or like the story is being manipulated to promote a message. Overall, this was a really enjoyable read, nice and light and fun, but with a little stream of darkness running through to give it a bit more edge and interest.
