The story is pretty out there, and not very plausible, even though it tries to be.

I expected a bit more from this book, I was basically underwhelmed. Lauren Henderson is such a pro at writing for a teenage audience that its hard to believe this is her first young adult novel! She is like a magician, building suspense and creating a story so vivid it is impossible not to be caught up in Scarletts mystery. All Scarlett wants is to put the horrific past behind her, but then she receives an anonymous note with four simple words that change everything. She didnt do anything wrong, but Plum and her crowd blamed Scarlett for Dans death.Īfter the tragedy, Scarlett transfers to Wakefield Hall, a school in the country away from St.

One minute he was there right in front of her, his strong arms around her body, lips caressing hers. After what happened to Dan, Scarlett will probably never go to a party or kiss a boy again in her life. Looking back, she cringes to think how badly she wanted to fit in with Plums crowd, to wear the hottest fashions and lust after the hottest boys. After ditching her two best friends from gymnastics for the chance at living the posh life, maybe Scarlett deserved what was coming to her. She would have said no when Plums crony invited her to a posh party in her penthouse. If only she could go back in time, Scarlett would have turned down Nadias invitation. Both of her wishes came true, but not at all in the way she imagined. It was one of her wishes for the year, along with growing boobs. Scarlett had dreamed about kissing Dan McAndrew. Tabbys know it was Scarlett and there is no way Scarlett can ever return to school again after what happened. Because she is a minor, the press cannot print her name, but all the girls at St. Thats Scarletts nickname, courtesy of the British tabloids. Maybe she isnt an expert detective, but Scarlett is determined to clear her conscious and her name. Scarlett sets out to uncover the truth about what happened the night she inadvertently killed Dan McAndrew. Kiss Me Kill Me is dark and mysterious twist on the chick lit genre.
