Exceeded my expectatations
Karen M. McManus brings us One Of Us Is Next, the sequel to her best-selling book, One Of Us Is Lying. The book picks up at Bayview high where everyone is still reeling from the death of school gossip boy, Simon Kelleher a year ago, when a copycat decides to open up a school-wide game of lethal truth or dare. Choosing truth reveals your darkest secrets but dare gets fatally dangerous quickly.
One Of Us Is Lying is easily one of my favourite books of all time, so I was over the moon when I found out there was going to be a sequel. I was nervous that One Of Us Is Next wouldn’t live up to my extremely high expectations, but it exceeded them. It’s always risky for an author to revisit old characters in a new story, but Karen M. McManus does it exceptionally well. I found myself completely hooked by the book and I had no idea who was behind the game of truth or dare. It was great to see new relationships form throughout the book and watch broken relationships heal. I will admit that it took me a while to get through the book, as I struggled to remember who many of the characters were and what role they played in the first book.

Wow, I love this book! The uniqueness of the storyline keeps you on your toes and really wanting more. I love how Siobhan raises the very real overpopulation crisis and the drastic actions people will go too.
I love the concept of living under the Sea and I did not expect the ending!
Its great to have such a strong heroine, Sadie has obstacles she needs to face and takes it in her stride, never letting the situation get the better of her and working out solutions for the problems she faces, using her initiative and showing great strength and strong will throughout. The only niggle I had was the slight repetition of her friends keeping secrets and not confiding in her throughout the book. But that's it.
I really loved the storyline,the relationships and really look forward to reading number 2 as I need to know what happens

I Received this book via netgalley for an open and honest review
