Wish You Were Dead: Quick Reads

Product Information

Madison and Tyler are good characters who seem to follow a logical path on their investigation. There are a couple of subplots that play out well in the end, a few red herrings and interesting twists. And as far as relationships went, they were portrayed well. James explained that, in his experience, a majority of policemen and policewomen enjoy their work, even though they have to work insane hours, deal with the bureaucracy, and face horrible tragedies, as well as the internal politics of the system. But he also explains that those experiences are the reason that police workers look at the world differently than everyone else. The book “Wish you were dead” is different, comparing to another book “The deadly sister”. “The Deadly sister” has an ending twist that a Main character is the killer to set up her sister, While the other book “Wish you were dead” has to be a teacher named Ms. Skelling. The first book is all about her sister Maya being accused of murder so Abby is helping her to prove she’s innocent but turns out she’s the one a killer. The second book i read last year is more different because it has a different plot of the story. Instead of one person murdered, It’s being kidnapped and being murder days or weeks later. One has the love relationship problems in a story while the other has to do something with bullying. I think i like “Wish you were dead” better than “The deadly sister” because i’m disappointed to read that a main character would set up sister in jail so she can protect herself. Sie wünscht der Lucy den Tod. Paar Tage später verschwindet diese mitten in der Nacht vor dem Haus ihrer Eltern. Danach bloggt sie weiter und immer mehr Kommentare bekommt sie.

There’s so much I wanna say but can’t because I don’t wanna spoil! Definitely recommend you guys read this! I read it in like 2 and a half hours! (Though I did read like half last night then woke up at 6 am to finish…but in total it was about 2 in a half-ish hours) Revenge for the high school downtrodden was an interesting premise but overall the book didn't fully work for me. I do give credit to the author for being willing to kill off a couple of the kidnapping victims rather than having them all miraculously survive. Especially since the heroine was close to one of those who didn't make it.from the way rowan treat Jane OBSESSED i don’t think i would be able to get over him but also the plot twist in this book 1000% would have never seen it coming like when we got a hint that it would have been ****** i was like are you sure i think it is the father but turns out they were both guilty in different ways i am absolutely disgusted with those two people also it got me a bit annoyed when he called Thalia messy idk way it not like he is exactly wrong but i don’t know First I thought that Tyler is a little bit strange (the rich bitch comment and how he acted all along the car drive) There was a time when I hated him he left Madison in trouble which was caused by both of them, he acted like it was all Madison's fault. He did other questionable things too, but these became totally understandable after we get to know his story still I never really forgave him for making Madison take the guilt. Desperate for a bit of fun in the sun, they set off to France for a week of rest and relaxation, but things don’t go entirely to plan. When the humorous French hostess greets them at the eerie chateau they’ve booked in to, they begin to wonder if their week in paradise might become the holiday from hell.

However, it bothered me that the story randomly jumped POVs between first person and third. It wasn't always clear which character the story was focused on, and sometimes, the focus on a character seemed unnecessary. A lot of the characters, like Lucy, Madison, and Courtney, seemed really flat and predictable. I could guess what the MC was going to do in most cases before she did it. Wish You Were Dead is a very intriguing story about teenagers going missing after a blogger, Str-S-d, wishes they were dead. One after the other the bullies of Soundview High are nowhere to be found and Madison finds herself filled with guilt because she is the one person they see or talk to last. But the mystery of the kidnapper is not the only one Madison will have to solve. She needs to find who her mysterious cyber stalker is and if the new guy she is falling for had anything to do with the missing kids. Based in England in a city known to be full of criminals, Roy Grace’s department focuses on suspicious events and murder mysteries. One of the most popular murder-mystery novelists of his time, Peter James, wanted to give the dark city a personable protagonist who helped make the stories that needed to be told more light-hearted and easy to interpret. Adapted exclusively for the stage, Wish You Were Dead is the latest thrilling instalment of the Grace Series – the most successful modern-day crime stage franchise, since Agatha Christie.I can’t wait for everyone to read this book. Definitely recommend. The spicy scenes are ✨ immaculate.✨ Please do read the trigger warnings before hand. I don't want to give too much away so I'll just say this is a wonderful creepy thriller filled with suspense and nail biting moments. A fun who-dun-it!

An anonymous blogger starts talking about the kids that are mean to her at school. Then it escalates to wishing those kids are dead, and guess what? They go missing.

When James’ publisher, Pan Macmillan, came to him to ask him to create a new detective, James says he wanted to make Roy Grace a very separate kind of officer compared to other fictional investigators. He goes on to explain that much of his time was spent trying to determine what it is that detectives really do, and he discovered that their biggest job is to solve puzzles. How intriguing would it be to have a character that has a personal puzzle their own life? Who is Peter James? Bio: Todd was born in New York City. When he was young his parents moved to Roslyn Heights, New York (Long Island). Todd went to the I.U. Willets Elementary school and then attended the Wheatley School for junior high and high school. His best subjects were math and science. He also liked to read, but he had trouble with spelling and grammar, and didn't do well in English. His favorite sports were tennis, skiing and fishing. Todd went to college at New York University for a few years, and then dropped out. He lived on a commune, then lived in Europe where he was a street musician. What would have made the book even better was if Strasser decided to develop his characters more, or remove some of the unnecessary scenes that didn't relate to the kidnappings. Parts of the book were boring and detracted from the suspenseful feel of the novel, making it lose some of its overall appeal.

Jane and Rowan both went through so much in such a young age at that. They didn't deserve anything that happened to them. When I read about what Rowan went through I could not hold in anymore. I felt so bad for him cause he did not deserve all that. But they both were so strong after going through such traumatic experiences🥹 In "Wish u were dead" geht es um eine junge Bloggerin, die sich in ihrem Blog, um die angesagten Kids, ausläst.
