One of us is next by Karen M. McManus is the sequel to One of us is lying. After the mystery of Simons murder has been revealed, and with no more "About That" gossip app to ruin peoples lives, things start to quite down. Until.. an anonymous text to the whole school... announcing a new game... Truth or Dare. After a couple of rounds, it becomes clear to the students that dare is the obvious better choice. The new game is trending and it seems pretty harmless as long as you choose the dare. Life goes on pretty regularly. Until, a dare goes wrong... resulting in terrible chaos and another mystery to solve... The siblings and friends of the original Bayview 4, as well as some new characters try to solve the case. This book was exciting and had some nice plot twists that added suspense. I think the vocabulary wasn't all too hard. Since this book best fits in the mystery genre, I would recommend this book to people who like murder mysteries. (Malena. Grade 8)

Spoiler Alert! (Read One of us is Lying before continuing)

This book is the sequel to One of us is Lying. The story follows Bronwyn's younger sister and her class. Since Simon faked his death, many people around the school have been trying to revive the About That gossip website, but so far all of them have failed. Until a message is sent out to everyone in school. A new game is starting, and this time people pay attention. Who is behind the game? I liked this book and would recommend it for people who like reading mysteries. (Justine. Grade 8)

I would recommend this book, if you enjoy reading mystery genres. This book is a continuation of the first book, One Of Us Is Lying. From the other book, as you know, Simon died, and the 4 victims were connected to him from the website About That. This story continued with another website, Truth Or Dare. One boy took dare, and died from what the dare was about. What I enjoyed from this book is the middle to the ending, the first part of the story was boring, as I read through the book, I couldn't stop reading. (Ellery. Grade 7)
