Dead Girls Don't Lie


Summary from Amazon.com:



Rachel died at two a.m . . . Three hours after Skyler kissed me for the first time. Forty-five minutes after she sent me her last text.

Jaycee and Rachel were best friends. But that was before. . .before that terrible night at the old house. Before Rachel shut Jaycee out. Before Jaycee chose Skyler over Rachel. Then Rachel is found dead. The police blame a growing gang problem in their small town, but Jaycee is sure it has to do with that night at the old house. Rachel's text is the first clue-starting Jaycee on a search that leads to a shocking secret. Rachel's death was no random crime, and Jaycee must figure out who to trust before she can expose the truth. 

In the follow-up to her stunning debut, Jennifer Shaw Wolf keeps readers on their toes in another dark, romantic story of murder and secrets.




I've always been fascinated with mystery books. This one definitely kept me guessing. 

The story line for this book was one that was clearly well thought out, and while it was a relatively short read (353 pages), it was something I didn't want to put down. 

The main character, Jaycee, was easy to relate to, however, there were parts in which I couldn't help but feel that she was just being stupid, but we can't all be expected to be brilliant while surrounded with terror. This helped me see Jaycee as more human, not this perfect character who has all the answers. 

If you are interested in reading mystery, this is definitely a book I would recommend.

My rating:
