"Kill Joy really hits different if you read it after the first three books of the agggtm trilogy. There isn’t any right or wrong to to read kill joy, but reading after makes the experience way different! "

"A good-ish mystery and it scared me at one point. Not as good as all the other Holly Jackson books but if you just NEED to read more about Pip you should definitely read it lol"
