The Murder Party by Cindy R.X. HeMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Thanks to Netgalley and Sourcebooks Fire for the pre-release copy of The Murder Party by Cindy R. X. He. Below you'll find my honest review.
I quite enjoyed this one for a YA thriller. It wasn't super heavy, despite the grief/loss in it, as the burn to solve her sister's death drives the story more than the grief part. It had some twists and turns, for sure, but nothing groundbreaking. The MC made some obvious mistakes that had me annoyed with her for parts (like telling multiple suspects her suspicions! dudette, what are you doing?!), but overall she was relatable. I loved the best friend - I want someone so eager and on board in that situation like Zoey!
All in all, it was a decent book. I would say I'd give it 3.5 stars out of 5. And since no one lets me give partial stars and it wasn't a round down situation, I'll round it up to 4.
Recommended for fans of mysteries, thrillers, and YA high school situations (without it being annoyingly high school, if you know what I mean).
