Nate, the criminal, is already on probation for dealing.

And Simon, the outcast, is the creator of Bayview High’s notorious gossip app.

Only, Simon never makes it out of that classroom. Before the end of detention Simon's dead. And according to investigators, his death wasn’t an accident. On Monday, he died. But on Tuesday, he’d planned to post juicy reveals about all four of his high-profile classmates, which makes all four of them suspects in his murder. Or are they the perfect patsies for a killer who’s still on the loose?

I Fell In Love With the Characters

The characters were so well developed and the narrators were perfectly suited to the characters

Great Book

It was really good and for my first audiobook I think it completely captivated my interest.

AMAZING!

I loved every second of this novel. from the captivating story to the amazing narrorators. I'd give it not only 5 but 5000 stars if I could.

Great listen

This was a very intriguing story. It kept you guessing until the end. The narration was great also with the multiple readers.

fantastic

great story, great characters, and a great ending. I
loved it and I recommend it

good story

this was a little younger choice than I normally read, my daughter would really like it. however I did enjoy the story and it was a light read that I didn't have to put much thought in. the narrator was excellent!

Unexpectedly Intense

I'm not usually drawn to young adult fiction. In fact, I tend to avoid it as a rule. However, several people I know (and trust the book choices of) highly recommended this one. They were not wrong. From the beginning you find yourself trying to piece the story together. Just when you think you know the route it's going to take (it has to be predictable, right? Wrong.) there are twists that make you question everything you know. The author does a top-notch job keeping you on the edge of your seat as revelations about the narrators unfold. You find yourself oddly intrigued by the gossip and bent on solving the murder. The twist at the end was not what I expected at all. Really just goes to show you might not understand everyone as well as you think you do.

Amazing Book...

This book was intriguing from the very beginning. Sitting here and listening to this book makes you think of everything that the characters are going through and which one of them has some kind of involvement.

excellent! suspenseful!

I loved this story. The characters were very believable and well-developed. The suspense built and kept me wanting to listen/read.

Who Done It?

Gossip Girls and Breakfast Club had a baby. It was better than expected. I had suspicions about who did it about half way through and I was correct.
