Review

I listened to "Your Turn to Die" as an audiobook immediately after "I know You Did It" as I hadn't quiet had my fill of death, murder and suspense and OH BOY, I was not disappointed! In fact, I loved this book even more.

 

I listened to the audiobook version (on Spotify), which was super fun—the narrator made the characters come to life, and I found myself listening while doing everything: walking the dog, cooking, even shopping!

 

I instantly loved the main characters in this story: the three amigos Leah, Ivy and Jakob, who usually get up to all kinds of innocent antics on their family trips. I adored hearing of all their counsinly adventures and could absolutely relate to their close relationship. In fact, "The Three Amigos" is exactly what my cousins and I called ourselves when we were young too!

 

The second thing that I loved about this book was the action packed chapters that always gave you something more to pique your interest. While some of the events were devastating (animal-lovers beware), Sue Wallman very successfully creates a suspense-filled and gripping storyline that has you hooked from the first few chapters. I was so gripped that I listened non-stop: driving to and from work, cooking dinner, walking the dog and even doing the weekly shop!

 

The ultimate winner for me in any book that I review is a plot twist and holy smokes did Wallman deliver! I literally gasped out loud multiple times while listening to this book and was on completely the wrong scent the entire time.

 

I would recommend this book to readers 12+ who love murder mysteries and aren't freaked out easily by blood, murder or gore. There is some mildly explicit language to consider too, but nothing too bad.

Overview

 

Every winter, three families gather in an old house in the country to celebrate the New Year. This year, 15-year-old Leah and the other two teens discover that the house has a dark past: a deathbed confession led the police to the buried body of a teenage girl earlier in the year, who had gone missing 50 years before.

As the teens investigate the morbid history, terrible things start happening around the house. Soon, Leah and her friends start to wonder: is the house truly haunted? Or is someone trying to scare them on purpose?

And if Leah isn't careful, this New Year might be her last.
