This Is Not a Dead Girl Story by Kate Sweeney

3.0

When Remy goes missing shortly after her boyfriend dies everyone thinks that she must have met the same deadly demis. However, Jules knows this can not be true, she can feel it in her bones. As Jules starts to dig into Remy’s life she soon discovers that there is so much more to her cousin than she knew. Could something that Remy did in her past be the reason she has disappeared and her boyfriend’s death? Jules must get to the bottom of all the lies to find out what truly happened to Remy before it is too late.
Overall rating 3/5
I feel like this is another Good Girl’s Guide to Murder. It has almost the same plot and twists. I do feel that the ending message is a great and powerful topic for young adult readers. I also enjoyed that Jules’ character was able to find her voice and come into her own by the end of the book that I felt was being overshadowed by Remy.
