I insta-buy Karen McManus' books as a matter of course now so when I got my hands on an early review copy of YOU'LL BE THE DEATH OF ME I was so excited. I've never seen Ferris Bueller, but that didn't stop this rocketing up to be my favourite McManus thriller as I read it in one sitting. Rating: 5 stars.
I'm a huge Karen M. McManus fan, and I reviewed One of Us is Lying here and One of Us is Next here.

I guess we're almost friends now, or as friendly as you can get when you're not one hundred percent sure the other person isn't framing you for murder. Less than a week until the release of One of Us is Next so I just had to reread One of Us is Lying to catch myself …

“It came with the wind through the silence of the night, a long, deep mutter, then a rising howl, and then the sad moan in which it died away. Again and again it sounded, the whole air throbbing with it, strident, wild and menacing.” Rating: 2.5 stars I ummed and ahhed about what to rate this …
