Book Review: The Meadowbrook Murders by Jessica Goodman

Image
The Meadowbrook Murders  by Jessica Goodman  is a young adult novel published on February 4, 2025. The story opens with the character Amy discovering the bodies of her classmates, Sarah and Ryan, who are undoubtedly deceased. Told from alternating perspectives of Amy and Liz, both students are trying to find out who and why someone would want to murder two students at a prestigious boarding school. I received an Advanced Readers Copy (ARC) of this book from NetGalley and PENGUIN GROUP Penguin Young Readers Group for free in exchange for my honest review. When the story first began, I thought it was taking place at a college or university before I realized it took place at a boarding school. Other than that slight confusion, this suspenseful mystery captured my attention from the very beginning and had me on the edge of my seat.

Book Review: No One Needs To Know by Lindsay Cameron

book review no one needs to know lindsay cameron

No One Needs To Know by Lindsay Cameron is a fictional thriller about families on the Upper East Side of New York City and the ends they'll go to for their children's education.  They also all are members of a social platform called UrbanMyth where they all post their secrets anonymously and ask for advice.  When UrbanMyth is hacked and their identities are revealed, one of them goes missing.  Who is involved?

Thank you, NetGalley and Random House Publishing Group - Ballantine, for the Advanced Readers Copy of No One Needs To Know by Lindsay Cameron.  I received this novel for free in exchange for my honest review.  I was excited to learn I was approved to read this story.

A slow burn, Lindsay Cameron weaved an intriguing tale that had me on the edge of my seat.  There were a couple of mysteries going on in the story.  I had no idea where the author was going with the one mystery, and I was shocked at the revelation at it.  As far as the other mystery goes, I figured what likely happened to the character but had no idea who was involved with it.

Told from three different characters, none of them were particularly likable.  I kept expecting them to redeem themselves, and I guess they did somewhat in the end.  However, I still didn't really care for any of them.

Well written, intriguing, and absolutely entertaining, I thoroughly enjoyed No One Needs To Know by Lindsay Cameron.  Five out of five stars.
