"Mean Girls meets Midsomer Murders with a dash of Louise Rennison in this genre-blending story that centers girls' friendships and two ambitious best friends. Kerry and Annie are self-absorbed friends whose obsession over their lack of popularity results in hysterically funny dialogue and a lighthearted tone. Kerry's crush on newcomer Scott offers sweet diversions. However, what really elevates the goofy capers and over-the-top scheming is how well Kerry and Annie know both themselves and each other. Secrets add depth and complexity to this insightful parody of teenage life. A nuanced, hilarious page-turning romantic mystery." -- Kirkus Reviews

"Channeling the 1980s cult classic Heathers right down to the croquet set, Weston (Diary of a Confused Feminist) flaunts cozy English charm and puerile slapstick comedy in this propulsive mystery . . . The girls' chemistry as best friends and partners-in-crime-solving is energizing. Refreshing attention to sex positivity and period politics combined with Weston's timing--both comedic and plot driven--ensure a laugh-out-loud romp." -- Publishers Weekly

"A little bit Heathers, a little bit Booksmart, this British import is a campy, never-too-serious skewering of faux feminism that embraces the ups and downs of friendship." -- Booklist

"Kerry narrates the investigation with the relatable energy of someone who would much rather be at home reading the story she's telling. The bestie protagonists are reliably charming, admirably supportive, and refreshingly transparent about their horny, frustrating, unfair experiences as young women in this Agatha Christie-esque mystery for the Pretty Little Liars set." -- Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
