Book Review - One of Us is Next

📖Recommend for Grades 9 and up📖
by Karen M. McManus
In the time, since Simon passed in One of Us, is Lying, a ton of copycat apps have popped up but fizzled up. Now, this latest copycat seems to be here to stay with their Truth or Dare game. Everyone is a player forced to take the Dare or have the mysterious creator share a Truth about them. Phoebe, as the first target, didn't know what to expect. Maeve, having learned from what happened to Bronwyn last year, knows she can't rely on the police to figure it outtakes matter into her own hands. Knox tries to help Maeve, but when he gets pulled into the game, things aren't so innocent.

McManus has crafted another page-turning mystery. Fans of the first book will not be disappointed in the sequel. Maeve, from the first book, along with two new characters, brings this story to life. However, the Bayview and other minor characters from the book's predecessors are throughout the story. Readers trying to figure out who is behind the game and why they created it, will be kept on your toes. When you think you have it figured out, think again.
