Great YA thriller

I love a good academic thriller, and this was hitting all the marks. Fast-paced, exciting, and relatively easy to follow. There are quite a lot of characters, but once you get them established, it's easy to keep everything together.

A young adult murder mystery...

A young adult murder mystery about a young teenage boy suddenly falling over in detention and then not waking up. Now, all the kids who were in detention and in the school have to figure out what happened. A lot of turns and twists throughout the book that will keep the readers intrigued in finding out what happened to the young teenage boy. This is a young adult read from 4 of the kids points of view who were in the classroom when the young boy (Simon) happened to collapse on the floor. Reading from different viewpoints throughout the story, helps the readers with the clues of what might have happened to Simon. Was it one of the four kids in the room with Simon? You'll just have to read to find out. This is a must read for all fans of murder mysteries like Nancy Drew and A Good Girl's Guide to Murder.

Quick Easy Read

Whenever I am in a reading slump I always go to a YA book to get a quick read and get my groove back flowing. This was no exception. Great storyline with a twist even though I was able to figure it out (somewhat) it was still intriguing and an easy read.

Amazing Plot-Progression

This is one of my favorite books of all time, the classic murder tale, I never suspected a thing and I'm usually really good at figuring out the ending. This was nothing like I expected and I loved it. Characters are wonderfully built-up making you feel the emotional roller coasters going on.

An interesting story!

I got this for Christmas and wasn't too keen on reading it but the internet went out and I decided to pick it up. I ended up finishing the book the same day. The story is enthralling and I love that there is multiple perspectives telling the different parts of the story till we find out the truth. A great read if you like AGGGTM or any YA high school crime novels.
