Welcome to the most gripping thriller of the year: hugely entertaining, high-octane and read-in-a-single-sitting. Mind games. Murder. Mayhem. How far would you go to survive the night? Blackmail lures sixteen-year-old Ava to the derelict carnival on Portgrave Pier. She is one of ten teenagers, all with secrets they intend to protect whatever the cost. When fog and magic swallow the pier, the group find themselves cut off from the real world and from their morals. As the teenagers turn on each other, Ava will have to face up to the secret that brought her to the pier and decide how far she's willing to go to survive. For fans of Karen McManus' One of Us is Lying, Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None and films like I Know What You Did Last Summer.

“I don't want to be anyone's puppet. The moment I let someone make my choices for me, that's when I know I've lost.”
“I kind of think regret and guilt aren't such terrible things. Not if they make us into better people.”
Good Girls Die First followed ten teenagers who had been lured to an abandoned carnival. All ten characters are different and unique in their own ways but all are keeping a secret.
This book had me on the edge of my seat waiting anxiously for what was going to happen next, which is exactly what you want when it comes to books like this.
Usually when it comes to books like these I can find the characters don't have much individuality but I was so happy to see that it wasn't the case with this book.
I found myself not being able to trust any of these characters or find any of them reliable. I believe that's also something you want when it comes to books like these.
I would definitely revisit this book again in the future.
