Happy Healthy New Year!
Novel by Karen M. McNamus
Review by Jessica Ndregjoni
Ringgggg. The school bell rings loudly across all intercoms letting all of the students know that it's time to go home. Except for those students who must go to detention. They enter detention unaware that this will be the day that changes the rest of their lives forever. How? You may ask, well the short answer is one sip of water. As everyone rushes to help their friend Simon, they realize the struggle is over there is a body and no one confesses to the murder. In this novel we can see eye to eye with each of the characters getting their sides of the stories, and as we try to solve the mystery the characters try to solve it themselves. Even though they cannot trust anyone from this point on feeling alone just to solve the murder heard throughout Bayview High.
If you do end up enjoying this novel then I would highly suggest watching the show, which you can find on Peacock. This book does happen to have a sequel if you want to continue reading more deeply into the murder.
