Kill Joy – World Book Day 2021: Thrilling prequel story to the Sunday Times bestselling A Good Girl's Guide to Murder series exclusively for World Book Day

Product Information

Find out where it all began for Pip in this prequel to the best-selling A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder and Good Girl, Bad Blood. Pipp and her friends have a murder mystery dinner party, where each of them plays a different character and they collect clues to find out who the killer is. I mean we would get Pip’s thoughts on things and she would be thinking about her (fake) uncle and her (fake) family in a way that only Celia would do.

Fans of A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder can look forward to reuniting with Pip and her fellow characters in a different medium at the end of 2023, when a TV show based on the series (adapted by Poppy Cogan for producer Moonage Pictures) is scheduled to air on BBC Three in the U. As part of the World Book Day books for 2021, Holly Jackson has written this lovely little prequel, which is a nice little snippet of Pippa before the release of the final book of the trilogy later this year. But as Pip plays detective, teasing out the identity of the killer clue-by-clue, the murder of the fictional Reginald Remy isnâ? Not only is it a quick, fun read, I also definitely walked away with a better understanding of Pip's inspiration for her Capstone Project, the impetus for all the action in A Good Girl's Guide to Murder.Though the end of the game wasn’t huge, I got a kick out of Pip and her defeat and how she handled it.

It was nice, in Kill Joy, to go back to the start and allow Pip, the protagonist, to be a normal kid again, where her mistakes didn’t mean life or death.

Maybe reading the rest of the series and falling in love with the characters would be great before picking this one up. Reginald Remy, the patriarch of the Remy family and owner of the Remy Hotels and Casinos empire in London. Overall: that novella I’ve devoured in two hours definitely reminded me of my love and dedication to the series!

Though Jackson said she was honored to contribute a book to World Book Day, the opportunity created a bit of a conundrum. Still, great characters, nice reality, and genuinely interesting murder mystery game and of course the human dynamo that is Pippa Fitz-Amobi, so I still have to give this read a Three Star 6 out of 12. I can’t say much more than that, but—though it is still early days—I think this will be my favorite book I’ve ever written.
